Too Late!  She be gone! 

NOT YOUR MOTHER'S CAREYEBALL SUCKING PERFORMANCE SATISFACTION GUARANTEED Like to cut your butter with a chainsaw?  Pulling G's in your aerobatic mount leave you with a craving to crush your spine that you just can't seem to satisfy? Listen Up: This car will leave you DISABLED!  Flatten your eyeballs! Did you want to buy a Cobra new in '65 but just couldn't come up with $6K (that's right--$5995 would have bought you a new '65 289 Cobra--no heater of course--that was extra! $2495 bought a new Mustang). Well, here's your chance. 

FFR 427 Cobra built with aircraft quality materials, parts and fasteners thoughout. 0-60 in under 4 seconds, turns Vipers to dust. Dyno tuned Ford 351W, aluminum pistons, AFR 165 heads, Comp cam, Comp roller rockers, Canton road racing pan, MSD 6AL ignition, all rotating pieces balanced, ARP rocker bolts, Edelbrock Performer RPM manifold and Holley 750 CFM double pumper, IRS, Tremec World Class 5-speed, Ford 3-row Heavy Duty aluminum racing radiator (ZERO heating problems). Flawless metallic "black rose" paint. Correct Autometer gages, Simpson harnesses, powder coated and anodized thoughout, Pioneer 600 watt stereo and ALL the extras--even a heater, wipers and cruise control! See full specifications below. They just don't come any nicer--this one is PERFECT!

Only $39.5K--that's less than it cost to build! Interesting Trades?
