This Kirkham Motorsports 289 FIA is powered by a Roush Performance IR V8 that is fitted with a Borla Induction Eight Stack fuel injection system and mated to a Tremec TKO 600 five-speed manual transmission and a Dana 44 independent rear axle with a 3.54:1 limited-slip differential. The aluminum body is finished in light blue metallic and features quick-jack bumperettes, bullet-style mirrors, and a single roll hoop, while the interior is trimmed in black leather and incorporates Kirkham-branded instrumentation, Impact racing harnesses, and a fire suppression system. Additional details include 15″ FIA-style knockoff wheels, Avon tires, Wilwood calipers, and independent suspension. Assembled under previous ownership in 2011, this Cobra replica is now offered on dealer consignment in California with a clean Michigan title describing it as a 1965 Cobra.
The aluminum bodywork is finished in light blue metallic and features flared fenders, a hood scoop, fender vents, wind wings, bullet-style mirrors, windshield wipers, a single roll hoop, a Le Mans-style fuel filler, and quick-jack bumperettes.
FIA-style 15″ wheels are secured with three-eared knockoffs and are mounted with Avon tires with yellow “Goodyear” lettering measuring 225/65 up front and 245/60 out back. The car is equipped with independent suspension, and stopping power is provided by four-wheel disc brakes with Wilwood calipers.
The cockpit houses bucket seats trimmed in black leather upholstery joined by color-coordinated door panels and carpeting. A fire extinguisher is mounted between the seats, and additional interior elements include a dashboard-mounted rearview mirror, tinted sunvisors, Impact racing harnesses, a glove compartment, a fire suppression system, and a FAST EZ-EFI programming tool.
The three-spoke steering wheel fronts a black upholstered dashboard panel that houses Kirkham-branded instrumentation consisting of a 160-mph speedometer, a tachometer, an analog clock, and gauges monitoring coolant temperature, oil pressure, voltage, and fuel level. The digital odometer shows 700 miles, approximately 200 of which have been added under current ownership.
The front-hinged hood opens to reveal a Roush Performance IR V8 engine fitted with a Borla Induction Eight Stack fuel injection system. The seller notes that the stacks have been disassembled, polished, and re-assembled by Borla. Power is delivered to the rear wheels through a Tremec TKO 600 five-speed manual transmission and a Dana 44 independent rear axle with a 3.54:1 limited-slip differential. The seller notes that the car has been fitted with a stainless-steel chassis.
