1965 Ford AC Cobra Replica No Reserve!

I am listing this for my brother who has had his fun with this unique vehicle and is ready to move on to another project.  It is a very nice opportunity for someone to get in the Cobra game at a reasonable price.  If you have additional questions the quickest way to get them answered it to reach out to him at the number below otherwise I will relay any messages from Ebay to him so there could be a delay.  Here is his description:

This car is not perfect but a good running driver that is fun to drive.   This car is Missouri titled and licensed as a 1965 Ford. What I know about the car:  I am the second owner of this car and I bought it as a basket case not running but all hard parts there to get it back on the road.   I have owned the car for about 5 years and have taken it from a non running project to getting back on the road and enjoying it.   The front nose as shown in the pictures has a few deep chips.   The hood has a crack in the fiberglass along the back of the hood and can be repaired fairly easily although not visible when the hood is closed (also shown in the pictures).   The windshield chrome posts have some pitting (shown in the pictures) but all other trim is in very good shape.   Transmission  leaks a small amount at the speedometer cable. may need a new o-ring.   On very hot days the engine seems to run around 215. but stays there steady.   My plan was to upgrade to an aluminum radiator at some point just never got around to it.   The car stops good. The trunk is unfinished but you can buy kits or build your own panels to finish.   You can buy any and everything for these cars and with it running and driving it's a good base to get you into a Cobra Replica without breaking the bank.   The car runs and drives and can be enjoyed like it is. but it is not 100pt show car but a decent driver that gets tons of looks. I bought it as a project car with the body and chassis being done but the car was not running.   I rewired it. finished the interior. had the transmission rebuilt. upgraded it to electronic ignition put all new fluids in it and fired it up and have enjoyed driving it and owing it for the past few years.   I have tried to supply pictures of both the good and bad to provide everything that it is.   As far as the bad I have called out the worst and none of it can be seen while the car is being driven.   You want a head turner that is fun to drive and pretty cool to sit back and stare in your garage then this is your ride!  Please don't hesitate to ask any questions you have and I will provide prompt honest responses.   Please note there are nicer cars out there. but also there is a lot worse out there too. I am not looking to get an arm and a leg for this car. but find a Cobra Replica you can buy for under $20k… good luck!  If have serious interest and additional questions please feel free to call me to discuss 314-471-7147 Tim.  No Reserve!
