Cobra Contemporary Cobra 427

Chassis number CCX33308 – Race car built by Contemporary Cobra

This is a race car built by the team behind Contemporary Cobra, who produced Cobra reproductions described as "the closest to an original one can get" in replica form – bearing chassis number CCX33308.

The quality, engineering, fit, and finish on this Contemporary Cobra are of the absolute highest order. It looks entirely correct and is easy to drive. The car has been proven on track at several SAAC events (USA) and has been clocked at over 160 mph on the track. Previously registered on Spanish historic plates, now with Swedish EU historic car registration.

The odometer reads 25,050 miles, converted to kilometers. Mileage cannot be guaranteed due to a limited-range odometer.

Engine: Period-correct, standard-bore 1966 Ford 427 side-oiler with correct internal parts (a standard-bore 427 side-oiler block is hard to even locate today).
An original aluminum Hi-Riser Ford intake manifold with dual Ford/Holley 780 CFM four-barrel carburetors, Cobra aluminum oil pan. Lakewood bellhousing. Front remote-mounted oil cooler. LeMans rods. Aluminum 427 Cobra valve covers. Aluminum flywheel. High-volume oil pump. Venolia pistons, 5:1 compression. Output should be well over 500 hp.

Cooling: Custom-built aluminum radiator with a heavy-duty electric rear-mounted fan. High-output Edelbrock aluminum water pump.

Transmission: Period-correct, original Ford 4-speed Toploader transmission with the correct Ford reverse shift handle.

Suspension, brakes & wheels/tires: The suspension on this Cobra is independent E-Type Jaguar suspension – torsion bar front suspension with Koni shocks, and dual Koni shocks per side with adjustable coil-overs at the rear. Positraction Jaguar/Salisbury differential with a 3.54:1 final drive ratio. JFZ disc brakes at the front and inboard JFZ discs at the rear, vented rotors. Rack and pinion steering. Halibrand wheels with center-lock wing nuts, fitted with BF Goodrich Comp TA R1 racing tires.

Cockpit: Black Connolly leather seats and black Wilton wool carpeting, with lap belts and shoulder harnesses for both driver and passenger. All hardware is faithful to the original, with an AC hardwood-rimmed steering wheel, Lucas switchgear, and floor-mounted AC pedals as per original. The original windscreen and soft top are included.

Paint & chrome: Original paint was 1966 Candy Apple Red finish. Roll bar and front & rear bumpers are chromed. The side pipes are free-flowing and finished in black ceramic coating. Very loud! Now repainted in black.

Miscellaneous: Soft top with side curtains. Fire extinguisher. Extra taller, stronger roll bar for competition use. The car has undergone an extensive reconditioning: new paint now in black, returned to the same look it had during its early racing days with a small racing screen in front of the driver, new clutch and pressure plate, an upgraded hydraulic circuit, and improved electronics.
