If you’ve ever spent time bummin’ around the paddock at an NASA or SCCA event, you know the Factory Five Shelby Cobra replica is king of the heap. They aren’t the real deal by a long shot, but the sound of the burbling American V8 and those mid-lunge looks make for a car that’s lust-worthy up one side and down the other. The company who made the A/C Cobra feasible to own has turned their fabricating eye to Ford’s famed ’33 coupe. Few things scream hot rod more than FoMoCo’s original two door. Expect to see a rash of these things pop up at shows left and right as soon as the welds cool. Factor Five Racing’s kit can be had for a mere $20k, which is well worth not having to fuss with trying to find a donor, possible tetanus and whatever vermin have made the car home. The FFR cars will handle any Ford small block, and unlike the original cars, the inboard coilover suspension will handle the uber-light 2110 lbs. [Autoblog]
