Hey everyone!
After almost a month of waiting the car has finally made its way from PEI to Vancouver BC. While I had always wanted to build a Factory five cobra from scratch, a recent conversion of one side of my garage into my office meant that a full build would have been a tight if not impossible squeeze. Not wanting to waste my recent qualification in getting a mid-life crisis car, I ended up purchasing a completed MkIV cobra from the just about extreme east coast of Canada.
Some quick specs:
Drivetrain
Rebuilt 302(ish)
Comp cams (not sure which one, but somewhat lumpy)
BBK ceramic coated headers
Edelbrock RPM Intake
Edelbrock performer 600cfm carb
Rebuilt T5
Rebuilt Ford 8.8 w 3.08 gears
Running Gear
4 wheel disc
17" FFR knockoff replicas
245 front 315 rear MT Street comps
Interior
FFR gauges (GPS speedo)
"Stock" interior
Already have a bunch of ideas on how to add my personal touch to the vehicle, but first I have to jump through the hoops of getting this registered in BC (which apparently no longer accepts short VIN numbers that the car has from PEI). Glad to finally be here!
