There ain't no replacement for displacement....

not keen on the MASSIVE bonnet ornament (yes i know it's required for the car)

i remember seeing a cobra when i was about 17, still one of the most beautiful cars i've ever seen (was a kit car naturally... had a 4.5 chevvy in it)

i'm still tempted to get one and build it up over a couple of months.

 

[moonloops]

seems pretty useless to me, the rear tyres slip on the wheels..

Still only managed a 12.84 second standing quarter.

That huge bonnet intake spoils the whole look for me.

Give me a well sorted 289 any day.
