You'll find the ride in both to be quite similar since they are both IRS equipped cars. Your big problem will be deciding whether you want a Small block or Big block powered car. Most of the time your end use will determine this one (IE: street cruiser, drag racer, road racer, or nice Sunday driver). Now, before you decide on that, you'll need to work up a realistic budget, that and are you going to buy one already built, or build it yourself. Do a search for "How to buy a used cobra" if that is the route you want to take, if not, there are plenty of threads that deal with scratch building, finishing a factory roller, and everything in between. Most of all, enjoy the hunt, as sometimes that is half the fun.


Yours In Fords,
