Default New guy in WI with a B&B

Hello everyone. I picked this 66 Cobra up a couple weeks ago in a trade on something I was selling. Was built by B&B in 2005. Has a 408 Stroker, GT40 aluminum heads, T5, 8.8 with 3:55s or 3:27s not completely sure on the ratio. 2400 miles on the car. 2003 Cobra Sonic Blue paint. Motor makes around 500hp. I was originally trying to resell the car since I was selling the vehicle I took it in trade on and wasn't really looking for something like this but its growing on me... Might be a keeper!

Yes, that first drive down a country road, opening her up a little and hearing the roar will get you hooked. Just be cautious on opening her up, she will entice you and then bite you as quick as a wink.

That is a very nice looking car and I bet that once you drive it you may want to keep it.

I drove a B&B for several thousands miles. The best driving Cobra I have ever driven include the two that I owned.

Should go fast at the price you have it listed for.

Don't drive it! Repeat, DO NOT DRIVE THAT CAR. It'll be like mainlining heroin and you'll be hooked forever. Trust me.

You've been warned.

p.s. There's no reasonable 'methadone' to break you of a Cobra addiction.

Shamelessly stolen, often reproduced:

"There’s nothing nice about a Cobra, it’s stripped down to the essentials – a big engine, a small car, and four wide tires trying to keep the whole business on the pavement. It’s loud, smells like gasoline, and shakes, shudders, and bucks. It makes your arms tired and your feet hot. You nearly crash about once every ten minutes. It’s so damn wonderful you can’t believe it."

Hi Edlebroke, I have a B & B 2002 turn key minus build. 5.0 L EFI HO. I'm the 3rd owner. Purchased it in 2014. Needed some TLC and upgrading & updating some stuff. It's a very solid reliable platform. Great street cruiser. Could be used as a daily driver. it won't disappoint or let you down if it's well built. Nick
