Cobra Automotive is the leading high performance, restoration and vintage race car construction center for early Mustangs, Shelbys, R-models and Cobras. We are a leading authority on vintage Ford race and street engines, suspensions, brakes and drivetrains for Ford Mustangs, Shelby Mustangs, Shelby Cobras and GT40s.
Services
During race season, there's always an intense amount of activity here. Cobra Automotive supports many of its customers' race cars, and we field one of our own cars (the trusty #530 car on the left). This picture was taken just before loading the cars and heading off to the track. The car in the background is one of the original 36 factory R-models equipped with Cobra Automotive technology from nose to tail, including suspension, exhaust, and brake system upgrades.There's nothing more exciting than seeing a state-of-the-art vintage race car coming to life.
Unlike many other Mustang and Ford parts businesses, Cobra Automotive offers items that have been developed in-house to meet specific competition related and high performance challenges. Cobra Automotive has its own unique parts catalog which can also be viewed on our website. It features a wide variety of components and exclusive parts developed from our own cars that will work on the street or on the track.
Cobra Automotive is here to help bring your Mustang, Shelby, Cobra or classic muscle car back to its former glory. While the first generation 65-66 Mustangs and Shelbys continue to be the most popular to restore, we are dedicated experts in all years of your performance Ford vehicle! We specialize in all facets of the restoration process - from documenting and disassembly to preparing your car for concours judging, and everything in between. We are a one stop shop for all of your mechanical and cosmetic restoration needs.
PremiumShield is a strong, optically clear paint protection film designed to shield painted surfaces from severe stone impacts. Combining excellent elastic properties and optical clarity with a high shear and tack adhesive, PremiumShield is offered in a standard 8.0 Mil version, as well as our PremiumShield Elite (8.2 Mil) which has an added topcoat layer of paint protection for resistance to acids, abrasives and external solvents.

I won't post photos because they asked me not to and I'm not sure why Google is asking me for a review of these guys. That being said they are the premier Ford guys probably on earth. The 289 we had them to redo went from very fun and formidable but a little problematic to an absolute animal. They are extremely professional, knowledgeable, and guys that have no budgetary restraints in life at all ship their cars here for them to work on.

I would not refer this place to my worst enemy. The staff is Very Rude. SCOTT had made a THREAT to a veteran. He had said that he was going to personally lose the legs of a veteran who had served are country for well over twenty years of his life Tried to intimidate the man. I had personally listened to him say that he was going to lose his legs.you got it do you got it lose my number or you will lose your legs.

I have been dealing with Cobra Automotive for over 15 years - everything from minor service to mechanical overhauls. Curt, Scott, Jimmy and crew are terrific and care about the work they do. I would highly recommend Cobra Automotive for repairs, parts, painting and mechanical work on your classic car.
