My Old Cobra is now a Monster!

[Jefe]

Thanks to social media I have been able to keep track of my Cobra that I sold in February of 2015 after 6.5 years of ownership. It headed to Vegas where Frank at Voodoo Racing added a 2.76 upper with my 4# lower. Not sure what it made but it did 463/456 with just the 4# lower, intake, exhaust and tune.

He sold it a year and half later to another guy in Vegas. All cleaned up

Started to get serious and sold the CCWs

Ordered some new seats. Braun Venom Series with 5 point harnesses

Ripped out the IRS for a solid axle. I spent 4 days rebuilding that damn IRS

and then he ripped the factory freak motor and T56 out

Ordered a Whipple 2.3

and had a brand new built motor put in by Voodoo and added nitrous

1.4x 60'

And then he got in a bind and put it up for sale 2 weeks ago. Sold that same week. Waiting for the 5th owner to get on social media in case anyone spots it

God Damn it. Now I want my SY back.

824 though an auto with a 2.3?! Any info on engine specs?

 

[Jefe]

I believe that was with nitrous but Im not sure. He never posted the build specs or ran it down the 1/4 mile haha

Haha, yeah that makes more sense. This is what happens when you look at pictures and don't read.

What a gorgeous car. Love the look with the CCW's. Classic muscle car look in my opinion.
So, he was only asking 31k for it? No wonder it sold so fast!

 

[03cobra#694]

Lol, you know why.

 

[Famine]

I hate yellow, but I'd hit that. So sexy

 

[ZYBORG]

What a beauty man. THE only car Id own in yellow.

First iteration is money.

 

[P49Y-CY]

that thing looks mean af

 

[JeremyAlan]

I’ve been following this car through social media since you had it I love screaming yellow, but I’m a bit biased.

 

[Nightmare302]

I was watching this car closely. It gives me hope for when I finally get around to selling mine. It seems WELL done drag cars sell very well, it's those thrown together messes even if fast that seem to sit on the pages.

 

[zeus201]

Remember your old car, looked great but I am biased.

Both sellers after me got more than I was asking lol

Someone needs to learn to let go

 

[Jefe]

Never!

Not to offend, but I like it the way you had it. Stockish with CCW's. Now it's a race car. Could've done that with any 6 banger or 2V. Too me a waste of a great car.
