I've wanted one for twenty years. I'm 37 and just couldn't wait any longer. I started helping my older brother work on his cars at age 11. then started helping a Neighborhood Ford man work on his cars. All FE engines. Built my own 427 car in high school. A 63 1/2 Galaxie 500 XL. Pulled the 352 and dropped in a 427 top oiler 2x4v C6 and 411 gears. Took care of those Comeros and firebirds around our way. So I always thought of what it would be like to have that engine in a car half the weight of the Galaxie. So here I am just ordered a Unique 427 kit and a 427 s/o medium riser 2x4v. I will take delivery of my Cobra and my engine and trans at Carlisle this April. Cobras are a family affair. My boys are 10 & 12 and I guess I'll be passing the love of cars on to them.
