Great video - really shows the power and acceleration these kit cars are capable of. Mine has a aftermarket Dart 363 cu. in. iron block with all the fixings and was dyno'd at 615 horsepower. I used to road race it at Palm Beach International Raceway, but it was too far away and cost me $600 to get on the track for a day. So I started drag racing it at Orlando Raceway, and the car does very well in spite my old age and poor driving capability. Shame you sold it, and I can't understand why. I've had mine for about 9 years and the thought of selling it has never crossed my mind. Owning one of these is a lifestyle not just a fancy car. Your car is really nice - I love the taller hood scoop. Thanks for posting this video - it was great seeing it and seeing you enjoying it so much.
I hope to get my factory 5 next year, I have an original virgin 427 block for it. I really like the turkey pan look, but would love to put dual quads on. I need to decide because original FE intakes are still out there, but prices are on the rise.
Only one way to go, either a 289 with a clean-up bore to 294 like the original Shelby competition 289’s with 4 webbers or else an original side Oiler 427 with dual quads!
Damn....just looking all those clips here in yt cause I'm interested in buying a FFR cobra and finding your clip and wondering that you're living in the same tiny country as i do :) Did I see you in your Cobra an Monday the 17th July 2017 at a red light in Merl? Greetings
Hello mate. What a small world. Send me an email skip4fingers@gmail.com with your gsm and I'll call you to help with advice. No it wasn't me, after owning the beast for 11 years, I sold it 2 years ago. Speak soon
hahahahah, excellent. I was making a small video for a old school mate of mine, but unfort to much traffic. It was one hell of a beast of a car, thats for sure.
Why do people make videos of fast cars being driven by little old ladies? If one goes to the trouble of making a video, get on the gas. At least hit the top speed, with a speedometer shot.
That sounds is brutal in a garage park. Love it
What a beautiful sound.
What a mate.

No matter what, you are still in my opinion, Blessed. That's one fast and loud "Cobra".
That cobra is so awesome it makes your camera warp. 😂
that was so enjoyable thank you for sharing the sound of that car
Nothing like a torquey V8 in a little British sports car...works in my Healey and my Sunbeam Tiger!
Love the car,And the sound who needs a radio
I grew up in the era of those beasts
that is a bad ass cobra my friend. Great sound and loud...
Definition of AWESOME. One tiny British car. +. One yankee lump of big iron =. COBRA.
Lame in my book! Where's the tire smoke with some high RPM's !?!CURSING BEHIND a truck LAMEO LAMEO LAMEO
Envy tou so much. I love that car
" nothing better cobra more louder than someone yelling " yar who oo"
A mad lad!

Lol, best Cobra video yet.
The only way this could be any better is if it was mine ! Thanks for sharing.

Skip to 5:32 when it gets a chance to "air it out" a bit!
5:35. Hell Yes!!!
A knackers that sounds as good as my 289 in my W lol /// XW
Road workshop every 20 kilometers, must be German. Nice car.
How can an electric vehicle i.e. Tesla even compare to a king Cobra???
What are you filming on? Hair dryer? Car is awesome...
Yaroslav Oleksiienkko . iPhone unfortunately. Yeah annoying I know, but was supposed to be a quick video for a mate of mine
Awesomeness begins at 5:34 !!👍🏼👍🏼
fuck yeah bro 🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟
LOL the sound would crack the walls in the parking garage. Too bad, it wasn't an hour long.
The camera is in focus, Cobras are just really blurry
this machine is better than sex. Shelby Cobra.
I can't hear myself 😍😘😚.
3:35 thats right, everyone knows to let the Cobra pass them...ALL HAIL THE KING OF THE ROAD
I think it gives better situations to make selfies
how much is gas out there / us gallon
98 OCt = 1.12 Euro a litre
Where is it now?
Sadly sold it a few years ago. Family life and time got in the way. But then I owned it for nearly 12 years 👍🏻 wild fun times though.
Gernany
Burning gas with style!
Ear plugs come on letter ring
I love the sound of that Cobra! What does fuel cost across the Pond?
too much...🤣 about 1,50 €/liter.
looks like old brad pitt.
Cool video..I think you lost your wig and an earplug though..
Living in luxembourg ?
Marc Wagner
Yes I am
Fastskippy i saw it , im working there you passed munsbach to take a good ride in germany ☺ love those cobras since i am 16 .
hahahahah, excellent. I was making a small video for a old school mate of mine, but unfort to much traffic. It was one hell of a beast of a car, thats for sure.
Just listen to that beast idle. Woulda been nice to see him hit a straight away and BAMM gone.
Earplugs???
Shut up (please) just let the Cobra speak - ALL THRU entire video!
Sorry but what the hell.... you wearin earplugs?? It has to be taken as an honor if your ears can hesr the dound of the 427....
I been driving my AC Cobra for 27 years, ear plugs are awesome, it gets rid of the wind noise and you can hear your engine better . Cheers
Lots of unwanted noise, a,turbo diesel sport station wagon would beat it easy
Unwanted? If you don't want to hear a v8 roar you shouldn't be driving.
Praise be to Allah for sight, hearing and heart.
Timothy Radi Mind if I "steal" that line?
