Personally, I think side pipes would look ridiculous on the F-Type.

Thanks for the pics; cool car....and I agree on the side pipes on an F type. I have a friend that has 3 original Cobras including a rare Dragonsnake car;

Nice, your friend is a very wealthy man. That's potentially about $3 million in Cobras alone if they are 60's originals w/ traceable CSX 2XXX (289) or 3XXX (427) VINs.

They are and he is; his Ford collection is relatively modest compared to his Mopar collection where he owns several one-off factory promo cars. The Dragonsnake is said to have an unprecedented level of restoration and the picture is of his actual car.

He sold this one a while back, I would have loved to own it but it was out of my range;

This was all discussed if you read the VelocityAP header thread. No major gains, not worth it. Weren't produced.

I think you contacted me a while ago for information, we can probably provide you with all the answers you're looking for. If there's anything we didn't answer for you or you want to explore just email.
