I've seen that car. If I recall it's titled as an 87 Buick cobra or something like that.


You should come to Buick night at the barrington car show. There was a C2 vette with a gn swap and an el camino with a full gn front end swap an drive train

That cars been around. I've also seen a twin turbo 3.8 cobra in black. It hangs around the Arlington heights area a lot. Saw it up close at the rolling meadows show 1 time. I almost

That is pretty cool. But, with 427, 3.8 SFI Turbo, and Quik 6 badging.

 

[SleeperLS]

not what I expected, but pretty sweet regardless. I agree about the badges....too much IMO

ive seen a couple of them - i think its a pretty cool alternative!

Ya, cool engine set up for them. Save some weight, better weight bias and still can make power. I think I have seen 4 different Cobras with the turbo 3.8 in them around here.

I saw a 72 vette with a 3.8 liter GN powertrain. he had a upgraded turbo but he was showing me his 10 second time slips and how he daily drives the car. Pretty sweet.

EFI and turbos make a great combination for a street car. It is amazing how far both have come.

I was expacting a 03/04 Cobra for some reason, but this is cool.

Red with a 3.8 hood liner thing?

 

[79vette]

yes it is red, I dont remember the hood liner, though it may have it. he brings it to strats vette night all the time during the summer.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

That's the dude I've seen in barrington I'm guessing.

Forgot I had pics of it.

Then there's this thing.

 

[79vette]

That Cobra has been around since the late 90's I believe. I remember seeing him at car shows back then. Although I give props for being different a big stupid V8 would still be the preferable power plant for a Cobra that I'd build.

 

[Smokinhot]

That's pretty hot!! All of them actually

 

[SRT41320]

i still say if i had the money id put a GN motor in monte SS! best looking g-body IMO
