A 427 Cobra? A REAL one? Cheap...only around $10,000....back when they were new.
Apparently a replica, but still, badass! :thumbup:

A nice little economy car
That's a nice little economy car, saves on time!
The original with the 427 went from zero to 100 back to zero in ten seconds and the glove box barely had room for a pair of driving gloves, no trunk or other storage. The most awesome beast ever put on the street that could fairly readily be purchased up until that time and several decades later. Chevy's 427 vette that was their answer to the Cobra was an even better deal. $6600 for a 427 vette and they cost the factory $10,000 each to produce!
One reason I am posting is because the forum won't let me rep you to tell you that Lynessa is truly a beautiful baby! Some babies you have to stretch things a little when talking to the mom, not her. Glad you are able to enjoy this time with her.

I like the part where Leno say he put in a 427 with overhead cams because he lives in a hilly area you need that extra power to get up and over the hills. :lmao:
I used to have a Chrysler Fifth Avenue about 20-plus years ago, and I always said it was "7-ball red." It was a dark red color. :grin:
It was actually one of the best cars I ever owned. It drove like a Cadillac or a Lincoln. The air-conditioner, when turned on, was ice cold, and the radio sounded like you were sitting in a concert. The seats were leather with buttons throughout the back, like an expensively made leather chair. I loved, loved, loved that car.
Here's one that looked just like it!
