Pat,

I second Ernie's request for more pictures. Is the 302 stock or have you built it up some? And does the car set as high above the wheels as the posted picture makes it look?

I've posted a few more pictures in the gallery under Cobras For Sale, and Pat Martin. There are now 4.
No, the car's not a 4X4, although Porsche seems to have come up with a very nice piece of 4X4 engineering lately.
The car was raised by the previous owner who ripped out the oil pan going up his driveway. 4 new coil spings should bring it down to where it belongs, as well as soften the ride.
The engine is completely stock and is good enough for joy riding.
