Cobra Make, Engine: Classic 427, I purchased it May 2005, the kit was bought in 1991. I'm not sure when it was completed! Installed GMPP Connect & Cruise 376/525 with T-56 S/M 3.55 gears about 2 years ago! 1/4 miles is with old setup!

Some really nice cars there guys!

Just so everyone knows I'm not a Ford hater. It's just that I know SBC/BBC better. Bang for the buck the SBC wins hands down and for most of the time I was hot rodding $$ was a major concern! And yes Ford has had their day as well. I think the 5.0 Fox body Mustangs were one of the best muscle cars of all time. No they were not the coolest, fastest or best looking but they were affordable, reliable and with a few bolt-ons they were fast for the time! By that measure I think they were one of the best and Ford sure made a butt load of them. I had a few myself, Chevy powered of course! Not really, at that point I didn’t have the time so I just drove the wheels off them! I sold the 1986 GT convertible to a friend. A few years ago I helped her overhaul it, last year she had it painted and put on a new top. It still looks and runs great!
