One of the great things about the automotive hobby, and what really started it all more than half a century ago, is the unlimited creative freedom that’s made possible with aftermarket — or even custom — parts to build anything your heart desires. If you can dream it, and you can afford it, you can build it. And at the end of the day, the only person that has to love it is you, because we’ve always got our tastes, and there’s different stokes for different folks.

But this little slice of creativity? Well, we’re fully onboard with this sellers’ tastes.

This car is an original 1967 Ford Mustang “S” code 390 fastback that the owner, who also owned one of the new-generation Mustang Cobra Jet race cars for a time, has given the cobra Jet treatment, blending the old-school with the modern look and technology for a very cool one-off creation.

Now, you might be thinking that a set of publicly-available Cobra Jet decals were purchased right out of the Ford Racing catalog and placed on the car to give it the exterior look that mimics a CJ, but don’t be fooled. Under the hood is an actual 5.4L DOHC supercharged crate motor, just like the one used in the late model Cobra Jets, and has all the electronic fixings from the CJ’s to go along with it. As well, the very same Aeromotive Stealth fuel system found in the real thing is in the car.

The car was purchased already tubbed and caged, deeming it a perfect candidate for a Cobra Jet tribute car. The rear quarter panels were replaced with those from a 1968 model car, and a host of other impressive additions were made, including a fiberglass hood with real Cobra Jet hood pins, as well as a full Cobra Jet interior, tachometer and gauges, dash panels and door trim. The front grille is also billet aluminum.

Under the car is a TCI coilover strut suspension up front with rack and pinion steering, while an Alston Chassis four-link is situated out back with a cross link pan hard bar, a Ford nine-inch housing, 3.50 gears, and a posi.

Although built to honor the Cobra Jets by blending a vintage chassis with the look and the running gear of a real thoroughbred racer, this car has in fact never been on a drag strip, although the owner says he’s walked a few bowties and Mopars on the street with it. But at it’s core, this is just one really well-executed street car. And you can be the one to find out how quick it is, for a price.
