Vehicle description
This Cobra replica was meticulously built by a Unique Motorcars Dealer to their specifications. Unique Motorcars is a US company that started building the Cobra Replicas back in 1979 and have been refining their process ever since. The quality of their work clearly shows on this build. It has a 351 Cleveland crate engine and top loader 4 speed manual transmission, which pairs well with the Cleveland to provide ample amounts of power. The crate engine is rated at 425 horsepower and features a Holley four barrel carburetor, a Reed modified camshaft, ported and polished heads, and an MSD ignition. It has a Jaguar independent rear suspension with adjustable coil overs shocks on the front suspension to allow the height adjustment as desired. When you put 425 horsepower into something as performance oriented as this car, you need to make sure you can stop, so it has a set of heavy duty disc brakes on all corners with the rear being in-board. Keeping it cool are two high flowing electric fans, a high flow water pump and Evans Coolant. The British Racing green paint is show quality and contrasts nicely with the black leather interior and aluminum alloy racing wheels. This 1964 Cobra 289FIA Recreation by Unique Motorcars; custom built to 1964 specifications by SEA, Inc. (Unique Dealer) is licensed and clear titled as a 1964 Cobra Collector Car in State of Washington. It has a jig welded tubular, black powder coated, frame. It has very low mileage (315 miles), so the crate engine and drive train still needs break-in.
