A lovely one too. Used to work with someone who had one. It was enough to make you damp in the crotch.
Si, a decent Mk2 will cost nigh on what a Cobra kit would cost you these days! (And that makes me wet my pants too!)Cutting steps in the roof of the world

Nice choice Si. I always prefered the square mk2's over the mk1s. I like those rims on that too. Wonder if they are replica RS 4 spokes as they look different but in a good way. The RS2000 I bought was never finished unfortunately for me. And someone stole the alloy gearbox so I lost all interest
Andy thanks for that - to be honest I dont know a whole lot about those. I suppose a 60s one would have a 427 badgeOh Nana, what's my name?

Oi Yoshie - stop stealing my dreams !!!
I had the chance to buy a Shelby approved replica a few years ago but couldn't justify it ... It had a 289 engine and they let me fire it up in the showroom - the subsonics bouncing off the wall at tickover were enough to turn your innards to mush
I'm currently looking at 3-4 years of poverty putting my three kids through uni so all dreams of a mid life crisis motor are in cold storage
Life is too important to take seriously !

A friend of mine has a replica cobra almost the same as the one you pictured, it sounds awesome with a 5.7 small block burbling away, and yes you could buy a cobra rep for the price of a good restored mk2, wish I'd never sold my genuine mk2 harrier now but given the choice again I'd have a cobra
