[my427cobra]

Hi all. I too have an NAF (#427008060J85 with the number 143 bead welded into the frame near the left/drivers side motor mount). Well buildt car.

I , like Larry have a 351c (aluminum heads, hyd roller cam and roller rockers, custom made 2 - 4 barrel intake, and custom made valve cover adapters to mount the 427 valve covers. But my car has a C6 automatic.

I also have the Lincoln Versailles Ford 9" rearend with the disc brakes.

Larry, what problems are you having witht he rear calipers. They do need some TLC. They are a sliding caliper design, which slide on pads at the top and bottom of the caliper. I took my calipers off and polished the heck out of the slides, lubed them with high temp lube, and they are great.

People often think these calipers are a fixed design, because the slides are most often corroded/siezed and when the calipers don't slide, they can flex and crack the rotors. Bad!

Once set up well, great rearend and brakes!

I also modified my car to a street version: no hoodscoop (glassed over), no roll bar, no sidepipes(custom made s.s. undercar exhaust), and gassed over the comp gas cap indentation and put on a street gas cap. I also replaced the dash with an alum street dash from Cobra Restorers.

The crowning addition though, Sunburst wheels!!!!!!!!!! Long story how I got those many years ago.

A few pics in my gallery.
