    Thumbs up Zach Butterworth's fantastic street 289

    Just noticed Zach's awesome depiction of the 289 Cobra street car on the Unique Motorcars Facebook page! Great job on this Zach!

    Zach's car started life as a Lemans FIA model.

    The car had a Lemans hard top, which required a split boot lid. Zach converted the car to the standard boot version and added painted wire wheels.

    He added a street dash with glove box...

    ...and under-car exhaust, luggage rack, and bumpers.

    He will need to tell us about the engine. It looks good!

    This car is beautiful. It's nice to see one done up in "street" trim.
