**Genuine One-Owner 1978 Ford Cobra XC**
Build Number: 271
Factory Manual, upgraded from a 302 motor to a period-correct 351 motor in the early 1990s.
This stunning vehicle was originally purchased by an elderly gentleman from Mac's Motors in Bundaberg, Queensland (dealer code 1306). With a manufacturing date of September 1978, this Cobra was born at Ford Broadmeadows and comes with supporting documentation, including an ACCCHS report and a copy of the build sheet.

Key Features:
- Period-correct 351 motor, upgraded in the early 1990s
