You need some excitement? This will do it! The power, the rumble,
the wind in your hair is exhilarating. One of the nicest fit and
finish kits on the market, the Backdraft Cobras are hand built in
South Africa. They are sold as a customized completed rolling
chassis and allow you to add your own drivetrain. The quality
supersedes most other kit makers on the market. This Cobra has just
under 2,500 original miles and is in excellent condition.
EXTERIOR: The paint is slick and vibrant, finished in the classic
indigo blue with dual white racing stripes. The stripes are smooth
to touch and have been cleared over. All the chrome, stainless
steel trim, and bumpers are in excellent condition with no pitting
or weathering. The wheels are a Cobra reproduction and are fitted
with BFGoodrich tires with lots of life left! These Backdraft
Cobras are elegant yet still retain that tough appearance. There
are a couple small stone chips on the front as to be expected from
sitting so low to the ground. This has additional accessories like
tinted visors and side wing windows.
INTERIOR: Inside shows exceptionally well and you're able to tell
the difference in quality by Backdraft as well. The seats are real
leather replicas to the original Cobra. Even the driver seat is
angled slightly to align you properly with the foot pedals. The
carpet is fitted nicely as well as the leather wrapped dash. This
has functional classic 7-gauge cluster, turn signals, wiper blades,
a working horn, and fuel pump and fan switches. In between the
seats is the classic 5 speed Cobra shifter as well as a battery
disconnect. This Cobra has dropped steel floors allowing bigger
people to have plenty of room in the cab.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It has a firecracker 302 motor. Performance
built with a lopey cam Edelbrock aluminum heads, aluminum high rise
intake, a giant dual feed Holley carb and an MSD ignition. Custom
headers feed directly into the side exhaust. The front of the motor
has billet pulleys with a serpentine belt. It has an aluminum
radiator, water pump and polished expansion tank. It also has dual
electric fans and hard polished stainless hoses. Its dressed up
with Ford Racing valve covers. The engine bay has rivited polished
panels. It all looks real nice, it was a neat installation.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The quality continues! Fully carpeted with a
nice battery tie down and a red top Optima battery. There's a
kickstand attached to keep the trunk lid popped.
UNDERSIDE: Underneath is spectacular! Backdraft uses a front coil
over shock system, rack & pinion steering 4 wheel disc brakes,
multi link rear suspension with a Ford 8.8 rear end and 3.55
gearing ratio. All the powder coating still shows nice and shiny in
gloss black and is new looking. This car truly is spectacular
inside out!
