Introduction

The Ram Cobra was conceived in the early 1980’s, the chassis being designed by Formula One Designer Adrian Reynard. The Ram is still being further developed today by Cheng Lim of Thunder Road Cars who are considered by many to build the quickest and best handling bespoke Cobras available in Europe. Rams are the only worldwide recreation Cobra to of been granted personal approval by Carroll Shelby. Because of their ability and heritage, Ram’s have become very sort after and collectable Cobra Replicas.

Over the last few years thousands of pounds have been spent bringing the car to its current standard.

The engine has been rebuilt in March 2013 by Mirage Engineering of Snetterton who restore and run historic Formula One cars. Other areas of attention include Brake Discs and Callipers, Stainless Steel Side Exhausts and re-wiring.

Cosmetic expense includes a full re-spray in Ocean Blue with Wimbledon White Stripes and re-trimmed in Saffron Connolly Hide with Dark Blue Wilton Carpets.

It has a new Le Mans Detachable Hard Top by Thunder Road Cars plus mohair centre zipped Tonneau cover making the car a much more versatile proposition.
