Offered for your consideration is this stunning 1965 Cobra replica built by Unique Motorcars out of Gadsden, Alabama. Purchased new with some great options and accessories as well as a monstrous 500HP 351W professionally built by Flow Technologies of Plymouth, Michigan. The Cobra replica market is very hot and there are many manufactures out there as well as kit car options, but very few are built and professionally put together like this one. The fit and finish of this car is quite remarkable and very tastefully done. The experience and sound is like nothing else on the market and if you truly want to know what it feels like to be strapped to a rocket, this is as close as you will ever get.

Car only has 4800 miles registered on the odometer and after a brief test drive all functions seem to be working properly other than the oil temp gauge that was sporadic. This beast comes alive with a quick turn of the key and offers a sound that is extremely intoxicating and begging for you to hit the throttle. The ground will literally shake once you accelerate and the Tremec 3550 5 speed transmission is setup very nicely with quick response and a tight gate. Below is a long list of items that were installed and sets this car apart from others on the market:
• Black Leather Seats
• 5 Point harness seat belts
• Powder coated steel frame
• Tonneau cover
• Hydraulic clutch and pressure plate
• Aluminum fuel tank
• Extra-large aluminum radiator
• Dual electric fans
• Front wheels are 245/60/15
• Rear wheels are 295/50/15
• Four wheel disc brakes
• Coil over shocks on all 4 wheels
• Jaguar independent rear end
• 351W bored and stroked to 408CI
• Barry Grant Speed Demon 750 Carb
• Edelbrock aluminum intake manifold
• Trick Flow Aluminum heads
• Trick Flow roller rockers
• Performance DUI distributor
• Eagle 4340 steel crank
• Molly rings
• J&E pistons
• Girdle installed on the mains
• Crane roller cam and hydraulic roller lifters
• Ceramic silver coated side pipes, headers

Further options that are quite nice is the full carpet kit along with door panels and leather dash. Stewart Warner gauges have a classy look and perform well. LeMans style fuel cap serves as function and looks. One other bonus is the nice heater control system that you don't find very often in these open air cars, but comes in handy on a colder morning or evening drive.
