I concur with others, if your neighbor can work on old Mustangs, he can handle a cobra. If you have limited knowledge and mechanical skills at this time, it is not something that you cannot still learn. Take your time. However, at this pout you might want to consider a cobra that was factory built as you never know the level of expertise that the prior owner had.

Many of us started with only basic mechanical skills and learned over time. Take your time, there are plenty out there and be willing to travel a little to see a car that you are interested in. Wait for the weather to get better and ask to go for a ride in the car. See how it feels and sounds. There are quite a few cobra owners in PA, stop by and visit them and ask questions.

If you would like to see one being built, stop by and see mine the beginning of May. I should be rolling along at that point in the build and you an look at the quality of a Superformance. No, you cannot buy mine and it will be a little different than the normal build, but you are free to look and ask questions. There are good wineries in the area and you can make a vacation week end of it.

Good luck.
