Stunning car.

What's in the engine bay? I seem to remember Foreman P4s can take all sorts of italian motors...

Amazing looking car, just the ticket for the trip to Le Mans each year.

I think I'm correct in remembering that you can drop the Lamborghini Countach engine into one of these and be pretty much on the money originality wise, as the Lambo engine is an evolution of the Ferrari engine the P4 used. But, I have been wrong several times before.

How are you dealing with/did you deal with your wheels for the SVA ?

Presumably you're referring to the spinners margo?

The way many Cobra owners deal with it seems to be to remove the spinners and any other problem parts before driving to the SVA test, then once passed, drive back home and put them on again.

Superb car by the way Mark. Always preferred the P4 with the sloping back window. Hope the test runs went well.

I am Wondered from the pics if they were actually holding the wheels on ? I didn't want to say anything explicitly in case it was a nasty shock, but the cat's out of the bag now

A beautiful car, good luck with the SVA.

If you get thru before me (three weeks) post some pointers on what they look at?

The action photos look even better!

Would it be rude to ask what the budget was for the car? I guess similar to an Ultima?
