I agree, I posted mine on FFCobra and it sold in 1 week.
Thanks for the idea Mike.

I recently retired, so I can spend more time with my ERA.

JLNanson · #6 (**permalink**) 04-30-2010, 05:27 PM

Thanks I posted over at FFR. Any other sugestions on how to sell my cobra would be nice.

Man! I can't believe this Cobra has not sold. If
you tried to duplicate this build you could not do it for 25K. No way No how! Jerry is a a genuine car nut and takes care of his vehicles.
I personally will vouch for the detail and care he used to build this beautiful Cobra. There is not
a better deal out there than this one if you want an instant Cobra that looks great and wins shows.
Jerry and Veronica are class acts. If I had the bucks I would buy it.

Thats what keeps me looking at FFR's, they often sell at a remarkable price for what you get. This one has some nice specs all right and a nice price.

...need pictures though...

Mike Brasfield · #11 (**permalink**) 05-24-2010, 07:47 PM

FFCobra is now FFcars.

jhv48 · #12 (**permalink**) 05-24-2010, 07:58 PM

For a fast sell, put it on Craigslist in your area.

DWRAT · #13 (**permalink**) 05-24-2010, 08:48 PM

You need to post pictures or at least a link to pictures.
I am in the market for the right car but have no idea what your selling.

Danr55 · #14 (**permalink**) 05-25-2010, 06:04 AM

"I am in the market for the right car ..."

OH NO! Not again.... Mikie, did you put him up to this?

Hide your puppies..

Fitz · #15 (**permalink**) 05-25-2010, 11:17 AM

For the right price, mine will be gone too

! Ford Roadster looks pretty good

or old Vette.

mikiec · #16 (**permalink**) 05-25-2010, 02:30 PM

Jerry's car was the first FFR I rode in. His attention to detail caused me to build my own.

I may have additional pics of this somewhere if an interested buyer wants them.

Fitz... Your's is for sale like mine is for sale.
