I wanted to share some pictures of my "other project", I'm building a Factory Five Racing '65 Roadster (Shelby 427S/C Cobra) component car. If you haven't heard about F5R, here's a link to their web page: http://www.factoryfive.com/index.html

I'm about half way home


A low donor build taking shape (no used parts) Can you see my '99 SE sport in the back ground?

Huge 315 35 17 Sumitomo's on 10.5" wheels, 3.73 rear gears

302 from a '01 Ford Explorer (only 2100 miles), change cam and springs and it's good for about 300 hp at the crank

Wilwood pedals/masters set up

Baer Brakes 13/12 "Bear Claw" system


What I'm shooting for..... Hope to be road worthy in a year! Wish me luck! If you're interested in Cobras, here's a great site to visit and learn more: http://www.ffcobra.com/

Cheers, Pat
