427SC Cobra replica by ERA (Era Replica Automobiles, New Britain, Connecticut, USA), No.634.

This Cobra is engineered and built to be driven whether that means around town, on winding country roads or on a race track. The glistening Arena Red Metallic ($8,000) paint job and muscular stance ensure that your commanding presence will be noticed.
