    The spec is very nice. Much closer to the genuine cars than most replicas.
    Shelby originally wanted a Chevy V8 for the cobra but they didn’t want to supply an engine to a corvette competitor so he went to ford.

    Great Video Adam, That beautiful AK is Gen 1, and is slightly smaller inside (fine for me) because of the wide tunnel, the later Gen's have a narrower tunnel so a bit wider inside (not that you need it! lol), i think the column on that one is a Ford, mine is a Rover and has in and out, as well as up and down movement, so i sit at arms length, its also made for a much taller person than me, so i have spacers on the pedals, as i sit away from the wheel, mine also benefits from hydraulic PWS, that i would recommend to anyone. Keep up the great work with your passion for all things Cobra!
