1965 Ford Cobra 427 cu. in. v8 bri Walk Around

In the 60's Carroll Shelby Racing Team was the team to beat. These cars were the fastest on the road.
This particular car is a BRI (Butler Racing Inc.) Ron Butler knows these cars inside and out, being part of the Shelby team himself during the 60's.
Engine is a 1964 Ford 427 FE R-code which is set back about 10 inches further in the frame than the originals.
The transmission is a Tremec TKO 5-speed. The rear end is a narrowed IRS Jag 3.54 gears with oversized axles.
All this gives the car its extreme performance, its fast and well balanced.

Beautiful car - stunning! I have just bought an Arntz Cobra and plan on fitting the aftermarket IFS from Fast Cars Inc.
I like that the Arntz / Butler cars have such a long history, especially with Ron Butler's link to the originals. If I can get mine halfway towards how yours looks, I'll be a happy man.

Cabrillo conqs. I used to live near there in Mission Hills and worked on VAFB back in the early 80s. Oh yeah, nice Cobra!
