2011 AC Cobra

[Onzlouk]

So after nearly four years in Oz with nothing in the garage worth shouting about I finally made a move on a new toy, it was close between this and venturing back into the world of TVR but the support for the unique AJP of the Cerbera just isn't around over here.....and there's only one to choose from! Always had a soft spot for a nice Cobra, I'm yet to take delivery but certainly more pics to follow.

Only a little excited

Cheers guys, still arranging collection/delivery.... I'd love to build one myself but the attention to detail on this one is really very nice, great engine choice too! Soon be time for but I can see it being a loooong week.

Haha, I'm hearing you and believe me it was a great quandary to have, happy with the decision though

[coopedup]

That just looks so right from every angle, well done!

[wongthecorrupter]

Its a Ford 302 Windsor from a 1993 Mustang but really not much original remains of the top end, it should be bumped from original 230hp to around 350hp but i'm going to dyno to confirm before i do some fettling myself, fitted already are:
Trickflow Streetburner Twisted Wedge Alloy Heads
Trickflow Track Max Camshaft
Chromoly Rods
Alloy rocker arms and hydraulic lifters
New double timing chain
Massflo EFI Intake Manifold (reliable but with old school carby-look round air cleaner) with 1000 cfm throttle body
Mallory high flow fuel filter and regulator
Moroso oversized alloy oil pan and swinging pickup
Fully tunable Pro M EFI Mustang Engine Management,
Dual Wideband Oxy sensors
New engine and body wiring loom plus new sensors
Tremec T56 6 speed manual gearbox and HD hydraulic clutch (both fitted new, only 5000km)
Rebuilt Nissan R32 Skyline rear end with LSD, Avo shocks and King springs
Harrison double A arm front suspension, Avo's and Hopper Stopper big brakes upgrade including stainless and braided lines.
Dragway Hallibrand Deep Dish CNC 16" rims

Fabulous, and I'm very jealous. (Don't say that very often!). But I would look into getting some grille protection for that radiator though.

Good pickup, duly noted

[Onzlouk]

Fiiiiinally the car arrived today, well worth the wait!

First impressions are that it's noisy, aggressive and very eager.....Worth every cent then

Now to plan the personalizing process...

I have the kit for a soft top, i'm thinking air con is a must up here, then it's obviously supercharger time

I don't wish to be crude but I like that so much I could just spunk my kecks. Sticking a blower on that is going to be hilarious.

[Tickle]

Stunning

[RoadRunner220]

I'm a huge fan of the Cobra, it's just such an amazing looking car.
