Life changes have forced the need to sell my Superformance #887. She is a one-owner car which has achieved some notoriety due to her use as a "daily driver" some years past. She is a great car for someone looking to move into a Superformance for a good price and add a little "sweat equity" to bring her back to her former glory. I just listed her in the Club Cobra "For Sale" area yesterday. Asking price is $38,500.
A little more info:

A few of the extras include: new (never installed) 3 bow soft top and side curtains, R/T ultrasmooth ball joints (never installed), tonneau cover, car cover, radiator screen and much more.
This one owner car has achieved some notoriety as I drove her year-around for several winters in upstate NY. As a result, there is some rust on the underside that “could” be cleaned up if you so choose. She had a complete repaint while at Olthoff Racing a few years ago in original colors along with painted front and rear roundels. Actual mileage on the chassis is in excess of 84,000 – the speedo was replaced several years ago and currently reads 36,665. She needs to be sorted out after her recent upgrades, and the asking price reflects this.
