Not Ranked
We sure do have a wide range of ages amongst the Cobra types. My average age is 62. My car/engine building began at the age of 16, right after I demolished my dad's new Ford . . . did a half roll into a creek. Banned from driving the family car, I bought a '51 Ford and built a screaming 8ba flathead using retired parts from stock car guys. It terrorized the '55 Chevys for a while.
After many car builds ranging from a ProStock Vega and IMSA GT to TransAm Mustangs, many stock cars and a desert racing truck, I now enjoy my ERA409 Cobra. Can't wait to get it on a race track.
4.6cobra: Hunting for a 9" Versailles? I think most of them have been snatched up. Consider retrofitting T-Bird/Cougar disc brakes to a 9" Ford. For a price$$$, this setup is available from Stainless Steel Brakes . . . or stick a complete IRS with disc brakes underneath.
By the way, I still haven't figured out what I want to be when I grow up. Lot's of projects and not enough time. God willing, our average ages will increase.
Cheers.
