Hi,

I just signed up here and was hoping to get some information so please go easy on me!

My dad has suddenly and unexpectedly become extremely interested in purchasing a Cobra replica. We live in the DFW area (Carrollton/Plano). He has good general knowledge of cars and did a lot of work to a 65 Mustang that he owned when he was younger, but we don't know a lot about Cobras specifically. I think we'd like to keep our search within Texas so we can avoid the hassle of getting it re-titled if possible.

I realize that everyone will have their personal preferences on the style, engine, transmission, etc. but I was wondering if anyone could help with specifics on what to look for or what to avoid when buying a used one. Does anyone have a good mechanic in DFW (Plano area) who could check out a car before we purchase? Also, if anyone knows of some nice ones for sale in the DFW area, please let me know. I think he'd like to keep the budget to around $40k or less.

Thanks in advance for any help!
