Description
Lot #769 - This is a new-build Cobra re-creation. It has 4-wheel disc brakes all around. The front disc brake rotors are cross-drilled and slotted for continued stopping power. It also has a race-style removable steering wheel. This car started with a factory-built rectangular structural steel tube frame and body shell from Antique & Collectible Auto. The high-performance suspension system includes fully adjustable coilover shocks all around, triangulated 4-link rear suspension and tubular front control arms, all of which provide a comfortable ride as well as handling. The powertrain package from Roush includes: the engine, bell housing, clutch and flywheel, and enhanced T5 5-speed manual transmission. The rear end is a 9" Ford with open center section. The cowl has been insulated and covered with stainless-steel panels for heat reduction inside the cockpit. The engine is a Roush 5.0-liter with 770 cfm, Holley carburetor, MSD distributor with wires and billet looms, aluminum heads, Edelbrock air-gap manifold, hydraulic roller cam, roller rockers, nodular iron crank, forged rods, forged pistons, SFI flywheel and 8-quart oil pan. The engine is machined, balanced, assembled and dyno-tested. The aluminum radiator is a triple-pass unit with an electrical fan that gives excellent cooling. The frame has been powder-coated and the headers are ceramic-coated. The side pipes are high-heat treated and have stainless-steel shields. The car is also equipped with a stainless-steel roll bar and period-correct wheels. From the Charlie Thomas Collection.
