raced a 94+ Cobra and 65+ coupe

It runs well, I'm happy with it. It's just a CHP crate motor. I have 225s because they rub if they're any bigger. I have 3.08's because I can't get traction otherwise. When I first built it, it had 245s and 3.70s, and would go sideways in 3rd gear. Criminey! Now with the 3.08s and 225 drag radials, I usually get traction in 2nd.

I also redid the suspension (what they call the Shelby mod) and put front discs. I had read discs, but it made the wheels stick out too much (and therefore rub) so now it's rear drums.

It's blue on the outside and white inside; I kept the interior stock, with a groovy wide-sweep speedo and a big white factory steering wheel. I put three-point seat belts in front and lap belts in the rear. Restomod is fun.
