Did you always want a Cobra?
Here is a website I use to look at back when I was thinking of getting a classic British roadster. You may of seen it great pictures and builds.
BritishV8: the car magazine for enthusiasts of modified British sports cars http://www.britishv8.org/Triumph/MikeDonovan/trf3.jpg http://www.britishv8.org/Triumph/MikeDonovan/trf2.jpg |
owing a real Shelby Cobra is at the top of my lotto winner list. But these other brit cars also come with some horrendous electrical problems. There are whole websites devoted to each brands quirky electrical gremlins.

I think that is the reason aot of car were converted to small block V8s.
Like V8 conversion manuals, parts for V8 S10, Datzun Z, Jaguar, Chevy TPI & TBI, Colorado, Astro Van V8, Volvo 200 & 700 |

^I used to see that car in South Bay LA all the time around PCH. Or one of it's clones. I don't even care if it's a rep I would drive the hell out of that.

That car is a regular at Super car Sunday out in Woodland Hills CA and there are quite a few others that show up also.I was at a big toy drive a couple years ago and a club with about 20 Cobras showed up with a police escort and it was awesome.

Wheelers Dealers did a show where they brought a replica and did a rebuild it was pretty interesting. Especially changing out the rear axles to put wider wheels on the car.

There is a whole website and club for building the replicas. sorry forget the name
