Default Canepa/last 427 Cobra

I was at the Canepa Cars n Coffee this past Saturday, and they had the *last* 427 in the shop for restoration, among other gems (like two 917s). Last time I was there, I remember seeing this car stripped to bare metal on the rotisserie. Now it seems to be almost complete.

The engine was on a stand in front. Rebuilt by Ed Pink. Talk about a high-buck and high-quality restoration.

Check out these photos. Keeping my own car in mind (it is almost the same color), one of the thoughts that crossed my mind is how great of a job the folks at ERA have done WRT accuracy...
