1964 ERA FIA Cobra

Built in 1964, this ERA FIA Cobra combines classic Shelby-inspired styling with a professionally built Ford small-block V8 and modern drivability. Power comes from a 306 cubic-inch Ford V8 featuring 10.5:1 compression, a Shelby-style dual-plane intake, Competition Cams solid-lifter camshaft, stud-mounted aluminum roller rockers, and headers. The engine was professionally built by Canton Automotive Machines in Canton, Ohio, and dyno-tested at 264 rear-wheel horsepower and 266 lb-ft of rear-wheel torque, with an advertised engine output of approximately 349 horsepower.

Backing the engine is a Tremec T5 five-speed manual transmission, delivering an engaging driving experience well suited for both spirited street driving and weekend events. According to the original cam selection documentation, the engine was designed as a mostly street/some strip combination, offering broad power, excellent drivability, and a mild performance idle.

Complementing its period-correct FIA appearance are flat-finish tri-wing spinner wheels, giving the Cobra an authentic competition-inspired look while perfectly matching the timeless roadster styling.

The ERA was built in 1964, and currently shows 28,754 miles. Documentation included with the car details the engine specifications, dyno results, and build information, adding to the provenance of this well-sorted Cobra.
