CAR DESCRIPTION FROM SELLER
1967 AC Shelby Cobra 4274,000 +/- miles, will change as it is being driven. Michigan Title has it as a 1967 Cobra Replica, while previous owner's TN & TX Titles were listed as 1967 UNIQ 427.This is not like the usual recreations or kits out there. So please keep reading.1992 Unique Motorcars build. One of the first and longest running replica AC Ford Shelby Cobra 427 companies, established in 1977 in Gadsden, Alabama and still available for factory tours. http://uniquemotorcars.com/ Look at their website and you will see that the current "Deluxe Pallet Kit Price" is $32,195, which is before assembly, engine, transmission, wheels, tires and bright work! What also would be missing is all the little details that makes so many people ask "is it real?"The answer is it is really, really close. It has a fiberglass body and stronger than original square tube frame, and if you do a bit of research you will see that it is dressed up with nearly every detail that makes it very authentic to an original, including:All the extra goodies that I have for the car. Original Stewart Warner Gauges as well as matching replacements (with the orange needle instead of the white ones), an extra shifter (personal preference one is a dog leg the other straight), cobra fender protectors, etc. If you have a question and I will answer it ASAP.This car is beyond words to drive, and is attracts more attention than most of the vehicles on the road. It is fast, powerful and keeps your attention/engaged in the driving experience. If you haven't heard the lope & burble of a big block FE with super cobra jet heads coming through sidepipes before, well it is primal. The bright work is in great condition, and so is the paint. Although there are a few exceptions that to me are reasonable for a 28 year old car. Previous to my ownership there was a curb rash on the front air damn, since I can't see it when walking around the vehicle I didn't care. The passenger side rear wheel wells have chips along the surface of the wheel arch which appear to be "door dings." I have some touch up paint that I just haven't gotten around to using yet that I will include in the sale. Lastly there is a spot on the driver's side rear quarter panel that the previous owner described as "over buffed." I think that is being generous and it looks like an "under-spray" of the original finish. Regardless, it is in a location that isn't obvious and you have to look for it. This is a car that has been driven and shows well, as a 28 year old well cared for car should. Also, it has various oil leaks, nothing that is worrisome, but we are talking about a 54 year old engine and drive-train. These can be chased down, but again nothing that I prioritized. This uses a modified MG rack and pinion front end. As with the engine, transmission and rear end, I believe this is as close to "authentic" for the period as possible (AKA AC and MG were using similar front ends in 1967). Everything works on the vehicle with the exception of the spring-loaded roller on the turn signal, so you have to manually reset the turn signal after using the turn signal. Should be an easy fix, but one that I hadn't gotten around to. ;)Everything above is what a 1967 Ford Shelby Cobra 427 would have had. Exceptions if you want to be more correct (besides the frame and the fiberglass body) is:Being "correct" also means you should lose the Mallory HEI Distributor and run an original Ford FE distributor, but that would be a step back in both performance and reliability.$500 immediate deposit required.Again, ask questions and I will do my best to answer them. Listed locally so I may cancel the auction early if sold. To be fair I have included a "Buy it Now" option. GLWTA!
