you can call unique and give them the number off the one your looking at, the weavers are good people and could possibly help you figure out how it was built.

pin drive on them, like most others require the short rear setup. so if it dont have it already, than i would likely not want it. I have Jag rear on mine with center brakes, and honestly prefer the lug nuts. I also have a daytona, with pin drive, so that is my comparison. they look awesome, but pretty big extra cost and can be a pain to get off and they are not all the same. I have FIA wheels on my daytona, which means the setup that was on it before i got it was wrong. vintage wheels got me fixed up and all good.

dont really think i had much issues with the unique, besides the blinker/ headlight high low setup, and the original pull out light switch..... well until i swapped in LED lights anyways.
now all good and still shines and goes great!

price-
many pay a lot for how its built. SBF, 4 speed, irs, ect ect.... now a days, most think the only way to buy them is gen3 yote motor, t56 magnum, 15+ irs.... but honestly, your pocket will define what options you will get. I would avoid a fox body donor build, as you will get them cheaper so expect it to not really gain in value.

Heat-
they are all the same, you will get some heat becuase of the design. dont worry its not bad at all. i drive mine in lower AL no problem..... now the daytona on the other hand, gets HOT. lol

Good idea on calling Unique and seeing what they can tell me. I have heard nothing but good things about the Weavers and that they are super helpful. I think I will do that this week.

I hear you about the lug nuts vs pin drives and the cost. I am pretty hung up on the pin drive wheels though, even if it means some work to get it there. Great looking Cobra btw, and I love the green, BRG is on my list of possible colors if I was building one.
