The Shelby Cobra 427

Another car I wouldn't mind having is the Shelby Cobra with the 427 V-8.

Of course this one would have to be a kit, too, since orginals sell for about $500,000.

I've only seen one real one, on display at an airport. It was impressive.

I'd put a small engine in mine, probably a four-cylinder. A 427 V-8 would get in the single digits when it came to gas mileage.
