I actually saw those in person and I have photos on my phone somewhere. There's a mall in Pennsylvania that some rich guy is leasing to house his antique car collection. A lot of those cars have these tires on them.

The Shelby Daytona Coupe. They are going into production. They're going to make a whole six (6) units!

Is that bumper on the MERC due to a bumper height law? If not, it looks like home made dogshit.

Ah, the Cobra, my favorite all time car. Something about the proportions on that one look off to me though, could just be the angle. The roadster was my fav anyway.

The article said this one has the longer nose to hold a big block.

They've been in production for years and Carrol endorsed. That's a dream car of mine. When I was a wee lad a neighbor had a fiberglass kit version with a big block and it'd do wheelies over double stacked beer cans. Coolest thing ever for a 10yo.

That's bad ass. The license plate bracket looks like a billet aluminum super hero mask. Overkill because, you know, $340K!

I'm willing to bet the bumper is only to meet stupid laws and regulations. Take it off once you buy it. Then put it back on for your vehicle inspection.

Licensed or not, those are just replicas. Replicas and kit cars have been around forever. And most, if not all, have fiberglass bodies.

This is a real, aluminum bodied Shelby Cobra.

Those photos look awesome - probably better than actually seeing it. I didn't bother going outside.

I'd say that veers more on the funny side than cool.
