Default Wtb ffr cobra

Hello Cobra enthusiasts, actively looking for Cobra, over the last couple of months, I've learned it's all about the options as every build is different.
Would like FFR or Everett Morrison, small block, prefer complete, will consider project, Florida if possible, $ 50k max. Thanks for any help and advice Tom tomcoughlin eight @ gmail dot com, 561 seven 22 three 696,

You will discover that patience is a virtue in waiting for the one you want but you'll also have to realize that compromise will be necessary.

Since the two manufacturers you mentioned are so far apart in build and quality, might I suggest you find a local Cobra club, join, and review the cars up close and in person. 50K will get you a nicely built small block cobra, but before you jump in with both feet, you really need to educate yourself as to the difference...Even in the minor differences between the early, mod, and later design and offering for the two you have zero'd in on.

Regardless of what you decide to potentially purchase, make certain you get a pre-purchase inspection, as there is more to a Cobra replica than a shiny paint job or chrome under the hood.

$50k gives you some nice options. I’ve even seen a couple BB ERAs go for around that on BaT lately although they might need a little sorting. One on there now that might end up in that range. Unique Cobras are another make with high quality that could be in that range. One thing I would be looking for is IRS in that price range.

Welcome and what Bill said above is very important. Be careful and don't get someone else's mess.

Did you see this one on BaT? https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1965-ford-cobra-6/

It sold for $39,500.
