This 427 S/C Cobra replica was purchased new by the current owner, who ordered it as a completed build from Kirkham in 2014. The car utilizes a polished aluminum body over a stainless steel frame, and power is provided by a 496ci V8 fitted with a Holley carburetor and paired with a five-speed manual gearbox. Features 4-wheel disc brakes, Penske coilovers, and a halon fire-suppression system. Documentation consists of the original build sheet, a certificate of origin, and subsequent service records. This Cobra replica is registered as a 2014 Kirkham KMS/427SC and is now offered on behalf of the current owner in California with a removable hardtop, side curtains, spare wheels, and a clean Montana title.

The exterior is polished aluminum accented with gray center stripes. Features include dual stainless steel roll hoops, side exhaust pipes, a Talbot-style side mirror, and front and rear jack hooks. A LeMans-style polished aluminum hardtop and side curtains will accompany the car and can be viewed in the gallery below.



An exterior walk around is viewable above. Halibrand-style knock-off wheels are mounted with Avon street tires displaying 2017 date codes. A second set of wheels mounted with Goodyear track tires is included in the sale. The car is equipped with Wilwood four-piston brakes, stainless steel brake lines, and a four-wheel independent suspension system with Penske coilover shocks.

The interior features bucket seats upholstered in black. Stroud six-point harnesses are secured to the rear roll hoops. The driver’s foot box was dropped by Kirkham to accommodate taller drivers, and additional features include black wool carpeting, a halon fire-suppression system, and a wood-rimmed steering wheel.

The dashboard houses Kirkham-branded instrumentation including five auxiliary gauges. The digital odometer displays just under 6k miles.

The 496ci V8 is a replacement unit fitted in 2014 at 300 miles by DenBeste Motorsports of Windsor, California following the failure of the original engine’s timing chain and was rated at 600 horsepower and 625 lb-ft of torque when new. Features include a Scat 4.125″ stroker crank, Mahle alloy pistons, Shelby aluminum heads with Stage II porting, a single Holley 950HP carburetor, a triple bypass radiator, billet aluminum coolant tank, finned aluminum Shelby valve covers, and kevlar-backed gold foil affixed to the firewall.

Further updates include the installation of a 42 gallon fuel tank. Power is sent rearward through a Tremec five-speed manual gearbox. Additional photos of the underside are available in the gallery below.

The manufacturer’s certificate of origin is included in the sale along with build records that total approximately $140k.
