Factory 5 is well
known as a highly regarded Cobra replica company. This car has
been lovingly and painstakingly built and is ready to jump
in and enjoy.
Great documentation comes with this car including receipts, bill of
sale and document of origin, build photos, etc. Titled and
registered with
Indiana BMV as 1965 Cobra, 1 owner since new. I have seen and
sold a few replica Cobras and this one is one of the nicest
I have driven.
Sounds fantastic and turns heads everywhere you take it.
Picks: There is a paint knick as far under the front bumper cover as you can get, and another on the inside of the trunk, the front of the
sidepipes have a minor bit of rock pecks sandblasting from the road grit, other than that the vehicle is in excellent condition inside and out,
floormats even look new, nothing else to reasonably fault.

*Vehicle is located at BMI - more
information or photographs are available upon on request. While every
reasonable effort has been made
to
ensure the accuracy of the above data, mistakes regarding hp ratings,
options, etc. can be made. I have also done my best to be very
honest
and very critical about the cosmetic and mechanical condition of this
vehicle. Of course, it is not possible to pick-up on every single
detail
or flaw. Please keep expectations realistic as this is a pre-owned
vehicle, and I have personally found blemishes on brand new
undriven
vehicles. If you are an exceptionally detailed oriented person, please
contact me to verify any information directly, and I will do my
best to
specifically photograph anything you request and to answer any of your
questions to the best of my ability.
