What an awesome car! and I agree with a Functional air filter and carrying a "Show filter" in the  trunk.and yes I just coined a new phrase. feel free to use it sparingly! Best of luck on a fast sale. one cannot build a car and get through the registration process as quickly as simply buying this well sorted Cobra!

Appreciate the kind words, I'm not keen on actually selling it, more so the 70 Shelby convertible so I can downsize from my Expedition as an Explorer would be on the ragged edge of it's towing capacity with the Shelby on a trailer, where the rest of our collection can easily be towed by one. In the mean time, we shall continue to use it as it's rotation comes up.

Why is it when I attach photos, only the link appears. How can I get it to display the photos?

When you click to attach, once it is uploaded to the server, it gives you an up arrow and an "X" the up arrow is for embedding the picture in the post itself. When you click it, it will ask for a specific size value, you can click insert to bypass this if your picture has already been sized/file sized appropriately.

Personally, I just attach them to the post itself and let others click on the smaller pictures at the bottom to open them at will. This way, if someone is on their phone, not in WiFi range, it does not take forever for all of them to load. Different strokes and all.

All that nice work and then "That" air cleaner. Wrecks the whole look for me.

The car was not built for show, but to drive, as such, form and function has always been the key here. A stock air filter robs the engine of airflow, affecting performance and efficiency. a stock HiPo type air filter 13.5" x 2" you see on these cars equipped with a single 4V vs this cars 14"x3" K&N with 14" extreme top (which flows 500cfm by itself),  and you start to get the idea of why it is there.

Using the simple formula
A= effective filter area
CID=engine displacement
RPM=maximum RPM expected
Using the CFM formula of height X diameter x 6 x 3.14

Stock style filter include in sale if a buyer wants it

Hope you find this helpful in understanding why the air filter is the way it is.

The 8055 "EB" (electric brakes) is the perfect "exotic" car trailer. This trailer is wide and light (as always all bolted together) but still shorter than most other standard trailers. The 11' long ramps are standard. It has a usable deck width of 80 1/4 " and an overall width of 102" so it may also fit in your garage.
