Indigo Blue/Wimbledon White stripes


Photo above is hotlinked (same view, much larger size).

427SC Cobra replica by ERA (Era Replica Automobiles, of New Britain, Connecticut... the very best of the best, and built to the highest standards of both component parts and expert construction). Breathtakingly beautiful DuPont Indigo Blue Metallic/Wimbledon White stripes [7 basecoasts, 7 clearcoats], a fully array of easily-removable/ easily-replaceable static-cling period-correct racing decals.

DRIVETRAIN
427FE Ford cast-iron side-oiler V8


powerplant photo is hotlinked (same view, MUCH larger size).

The splendid 427FE block is outfitted with:

  • Shelby aluminum heads
  • Ferrea valves
  • Crower valve springs & retainers
  • Harland & Sharp roller rockers [custom pedestals and end stands]; 10° locks
  • 2x4 medium-riser dual-quad intake
  • a brace of (expertly-tuned) Holley 450 carburetors
  • Eagle H-beam connecting rods & Wiseco pistons
  • original LeMans crankshaft
  • street & strip fuel pump
  • remote oil filter & Aviad oil pan [SS braided lines and ANSA fittings]
  • SS oil cooler grille
  • pebble-black 427 Cobra valve covers (and matching coolant-overflow tank)
  • fully aluminum paneled (sides and firewall... an optional/premium package from ERA), MSD #6420 6AL W/R ignition setup.

This side-oiler­based power system is in spectacular/mint condition, and would set you back at least $25,000 to replicate; the entire engine compartment is a veritable showpiece.

  • Cockpit is authentically outfitted with:
  • Smiths Instruments gauges (in original-correct positioning and with original-correct reverse-winding speedometer)
  • Lucas toggle switches
  • rich leather upholstery, glovebox, Cobra floormats, fire extinguisher
  • tinted visors, windwings, tonneau cover (never used)
  • trunk is fully carpeted
  • black lap belts are installed for both driver & passenger; you also get a set (driver & passenger) of Crowe 5-point black racing belts—brand-new and never installed.

CHASSIS, SUSPENSION, BRAKES, ROLLING STOCK

  • ERA's acclaimed rectangular-tube chassis is intelligently engineered and very rigid
  • A-arm front suspension, Jaguar independent rear suspension
  • Spax coil-over shock on all corners
  • Wilwood Engineering front disc brakes, Jaguar rear disc brakes

    Rolling stock:
  • pin-drive/safety-wired genuine knockoff wheels shod with Goodyear Eagle GTII rubber [235/60Rx15" front; 295/50Rx15" rear; all in top condition, as you can see in the photos. The rear hubs were painstakingly polished.


This uplifting shot shows you where my serpent sleeps at night. You see that creeper against the wall?
Sometimes I just lie under the car and gaze at the undercarriage.

THE "SEE YA' LATER" VIEW


This 3/4-rearview is hotlinked (same view, much larger size).


This "business-end" view is hotlinked (same view, much larger size).

Overall condition: This is a pampered reptile, always climate-controlled/garage-kept and "floated" on a lift (see photo!). With under 2,200 miles logged [3,500 km] it's barely even broken in. And it's never been ouside in inclement weather.

This is one of the very nicest 427 Cobra replicas you're likely to encounter, and there are no unpleasant surprises. You get ERA's comprehensive parts list all the build receipts.
