Thanks for your input guys. I'm extremely excited about owning one. I have been hand assembling a 425ci Windsor stroker for the past two years in anticipation on putting it in a Cobra.

The Cobra I have bought is in kit form. I arranged with FFR to obtain delivery in 6 months so I could get some other things in order prior to putting it together. I still received the kit for $10990, so it was a bargain to me.

I suppose that is the difference I'm seeing. The rearend seems a little high. I guess I'll just have to deal with it. Some look more authentic than others. I've noticed that John's Cobra (www.my427sc.com) looks pretty close. When comparing dead-on side shots, the rearend doesn't look as high. Maybe it's the fact that he's taken other stakes in making his true to form.

Thanks for all your help. I'm looking forward to being a part of the club.

Brent
