[John McMahon]

I AM POSTING THIS FOR A FRIEND....DO NOT CONTACT ME ABOUT THE CAR!





Big Block Contemporary Cobra, built with the best parts available at the factory! Look at all the premium brands for sale and most cars dont have half the value in parts/construction to them as this one does. A ton of money was spent on the construction of this car! The brake system alone would cost about 9K to buy. You couldnt build this car for $90K.

Wow, Freddy's Cobra for sale.
This is definately a 10%'ers car. Way too fast for most and better built than just about all the others.
You get the best of both worlds with this car, kick everybody ass at the track and then take home the show trophy the next day.

Fastest BB Cobra I ever drove.

Good luck with the sale,

RD

Yup, best of both worlds....

I witnessed the build of this car at Contemporary and no expense was spared.

I have driven this car at Watkins Glen, it accelerates and brakes incredibly with the Alcon setup. Very neutral car to open track.

I have also driven it at the Jersey Shore and its very street friendly too! Parked it at the Tiki Bar, had a few and ended up driving it home with the Uni-Brow.

If you want a Side Oiler equipped Cobra, this is it!

Great car at a great price.
