3 March 2010 Dear Cobra Country: Mark that fabulous Indigo Blue Superformance #SPF2656 SOLD! It actually sold within just a couple of days after it went up on your site... and in the dead of winter here in Wisconsin! I received about 20 inquiries from all over the U.S. and Europe, starting from the very outset, and had two solid offers. It's now about to be strapped into an enclosed trailer and headed to its new owner in Kingwood, Texas. I commend Cobra Country both for its reach and for its resources. Curt patiently guided me through how to take better photos of my Cobra, and those (much better) photos played a big role in the phenomenal response I received. And one other thing: both of the solid offers I got were sight-unseen... the offers and the sale based almost entirely upon my photographs, just as Curt had predicted! Thanks again!

3 August 2009 Dear Cobra Country: Mark that ERA 427SC #716 SOLD! And for the second time, since I purchased that black beauty on Cobra Country! Your site works too well! I had you post my serpent on Cobra Country on July 7th; within four hours a gentleman from Switzerland contacted me and purchased my car. I had underestimated the global reach of Cobra Country! Theres more that impressed me: my neighbors and friends from across the street and hundreds of miles away commented that they saw my Cobra on Cobra Country. You provide a terrific and effective service! Looking forward to getting delivery of my ERA 289 slabsidebut Im without a Cobra in the meantime. Like a high-performance aerobatic airplane, these drivin machines are like a mood-altering, smile-generating narcotic. Satisfying, that's what a Cobra is. The power, the menacing sound and the persona of these roaring reptiles evoke a simpler and more easygoing time. These are bona fide time machines! Oh well, I could wax poetic all day, but you get the idea! Keep up the good work! Cheers! Woody Menear

15 July 2009 Dear Cobra Country: Mark my Guardsman Blue Superformance #698 SOLD! It was purchased by a gentleman in Italy; it was loaded into a trailer today and is on the way to New Jersey to await final shipping to Italy. The transaction went very smoothly throughout, mainly due to your help and advice! To say that you and your site were helpful in this sale and transaction is a tangible understatement. You gave me priceless tips on photographing my car, and did a great job of cleaning up and organizing my photos, and really did a terrific job on the ad. Your scam alerts were invaluable; I actually DID have a scammer try to swindle me. But I was alert thanks to your tips, and did not get taken. Even in this down economy, I had a lot of interest in my car, and several other offers. Curt, you were also extremely helpful and supportive on the phone, and I encourage ANYONE who advertises his Cobra on CobraCountry to phone you first, before taking any photos. It will save him time and headaches! Your advertising charge is VERY reasonable, even WITHOUT all the extra help you give. But the tips and assistance I received were truly invaluable, and you are very generous with your time and guidance. You are a true gentleman and a man of integrity. If I ever need to buy or sell another Cobra, CobraCountry will be the very first place I will go. Thank you very much for all your help, and I wish you continued happiness and success. Sincerely, J.D.

25 June 2009 Dear Cobra Country: Mark that Spectra Blue Factory Five Cobra SOLD! Eight days ago I phoned Curt during lunch and arranged an ad for my Cobra. It went "live" around 2:45 pm and I had an email at 7:00 pm followed by a follow-up phone call and "closed-deal" by 10 pm all in the same day. In aggregate we had 4 serious offers, 10-12 emails from all over the country and countless phone calls. Cobracountry is extraordinary! The car is on its way to Utah as I write this. He actually wanted to fly down and pick it up last Saturday but it was Father's Day and I was out of town. That would have meant the listing, sale and delivery all occurring in under 50 hours... not bad! Doug Wonderly Editor: now,

Itll soon be on its way to its new home in Switzerlandand (no doubt) nimbly negotiating all the curvaceous Alpine motorways from Bodensee to Vicenza! My congratulations to its (quite fortunate) new owner Martin. Martin is a genuine gentleman and was marvelous to deal with. Cobra Country attracts serious buyers and gets serious results. My thanks to Curt who provided me with step-by-step/ color-specific tips on how to capture exquisite photos [of my solid black E.R.A. Cobra], and thus stir the attention of distant buyers such as Martin. Curt absolutely knows what hes talking about when it comes to using a digital camera to photograph your Cobra.

22 June 2009 Dear Cobra Country: Mark that Nairobi Red Thunder Carriages Cobra SOLD! The lucky new owner drove it (along with his daughter) from Billings, Montana to his home in Washington state. Take care and thanks again! Dave Jennison
17 June 2009 Dear Cobra Country: Mark my Superformance #0953 SOLD! My Cobra stayed in the Atlanta area but the photos did sway the new owner to come take a look, as he was looking for a different color and didnt think he would like a white reptile until he saw my photos. He said he kept clicking back & forth and decided to take a look in person! My recommendation to future Cobra sellers: listen carefully to every word Curt imparts about photographing your Cobraregardless of how good (with your camera) you think you are. His advice focuses on real, prospective Cobra buyers and will pay you big dividends. Gordon Peters (Editor: now, take a look at just one of the fine photos that helped capture Gordons buyer's attention!)

1 June 2009 Dear Cobra Country: Mark that splendid black Backdraft Cobra #327 SOLD! There is no doubt that the advice your site provides on using your digital camera to capture really professional-quality photos is what expedited my selling my Cobra. Almost every caller commented on how gorgeous my Cobra is... even though all that they had to judge from were those photos from my little Kodak digital camera. I received two offers from out-of-town folks who only saw my photographssaid offers subject, if they desired, to coming and seeing my car in person. My good photos would not have been there had I not followed the detailed instructions provided on your web site (and in Curt's specific advice on photographing my black car prior to finalizing the ad). Ultimately the fellow who bought it drove up from Georgia (over 900 miles away) with a bank check and a car trailer attached to his vehicleall ready to purchase based entirely upon the photographs on my Prestige Showcase page. Thanks again for your help with my Prestige Showcase page and for having a site which is so well known and respected in the Cobra communityit is far-and-away the #1 place to put your Cobra up for sale. All the best, Mike Giannetto (Editor: now, take a look at the Prestige Showcase presentation that helped capture Mikes buyer's attention in Georgia!)

Ford small block V8 engine. Pete Brock is parting
with his complete, running 427 small block! With the recent conversion
of his Superformance Coupe to LS7 power Pete Brock is
putting his rare Dart alloy block engine up for sale. This
particular engine has a great history, as it was originally built
for Dennis Olthoff by Ken Troutman of RDI, the Ford Racing
parts distribution office in the Mooresville area of North Carolina.
It originally dynoed at 635 for Olthoffs Run and Gun
entry in 2005. Peter Bought it for his new Superformance Coupe
and had Ken rebuild it for the street with a hydraulic lifter roller
set up from Comp Cams. In this form it produced a more civilized
550 BHP. It ran this way in Petes coupe for 33,000 miles
(no track work) mostly on long distance trips to cover racing events
for the media. The engine features an alloy Dart racing block
with four-bolt mains (about 100 lbs./±45 kg. lighter than
an equivalent iron block) Edelbrock dual-plane intake with
matching Holley carb and nicely ported Edelbrock heads
with all the trick valve work that Ken does. It has a Canton
fully baffled oil pan. The upper end features Jesel rockers,
with lightweight retainers and springs capable of turning far more
RPM than the Comp Cam and hydraulic lifters will sustain, so
theyve not had a hard life. Internally Its got an Eagle
stroker crank and rods (just had the bottom end off for inspection;
all the bearings look good) Theres a scratch in one bore, so
figure new pistons for a rebuild whenever you get around to it. Even
though the engine runs well, with this mileage it should be considered
a parts engine, as the cost of all the parts easily surpasses
the asking price. Another rebuild will bring it up to spec, but figure
a re-bore, new pistons, rings, all gaskets, a new set of valve springs
with a matching valve job. This is a perfect interim engine
that can be used to set up a new chassis until you have time to install
the planned engine or rebuild this one as the killer. Asking $12,000 obo
in the next 30 days. Engine is in the Detroit area for local pickup
or inspection, Shipping to another location extra. Email BRE
