PILGRIM COBRA

This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Classic Sale at Wheeler Dealer Live 2025 on Sunday the 1st of June, Bicester Heritage, OX26 5HA.

Fabulous 427SC recreation built between 2005 and 2007 with just 12,500 miles since

Although the Sumo’s registration papers date it at 2005, it has been recognised as a 1960s vehicle (hence the ‘66 plate) and is V5 registered correctly

Well designed, cleverly engineered, and classically presented in metallic blue with white stripes and matching hardtop

Powered by a 360ci Magnum now offering over 400bhp. Many parts have been sourced from USA to accentuate the authenticity, including the dashboard, badges, competition mirrors, cooling fans, exhausts and paint

All the 'right' features Jaguar independent suspension, Salisbury LSD, Hurst Competition Plus shifter, Milodon sump, MSD ignition and distributor, Moroso air filter, Holley carb, Flowtech headers, side-exit exhausts with heat shields, and much more

Three articles about this car in Complete Kit Car Magazine, “No Expense Spared Mega-Build,” Readers Car of the Year,” and “Blast from the Past.”

 West Sussex-based, Pilgrim Motorsports are still very much in business, still producing ‘semi-monocoque’ Sumo Cobra replicas, and importantly, spares for their earlier cars
