Opportunity...pull the trigger or not

So I've had my 2012 Tacoma Prerunner for a little over a year now. I currently have the chance to do a straight trade to a guy for his 1967 Shelby Cobra with the 347 stroker engine. I love my Tacoma, but do not necessarily need a truck. I have 25k miles on the truck. Anyone have any advice for me? Is it worth it? Here is the link to the Cobra:

no no no no no and no

 

NO!.. no good fresh build in 2010?.. is this a kit car?...

 

I thought that would be the type of response I get...haha

 

X2
also a lot more expensive to work on

 

Yes it is a kit car. I don't know too much about them, but have always really liked them. I looked at it as an opportunity since I probably wouldn't have the money one day to get one where hear I could do a straight trade.

 

Although the Cobra (if not a kit) is badass, it would make a terrible DD.

What are you gonna do if it rains?

Check how much insurance is.

Are you a gear head?

 

For a toy, yes. For a DD, no.

 

X2. Awesome to have that but only on the side. As a Sunday driver. Keep ur truck homie.

 

Thanks for the opinions. I'll keep the truck and maybe another opportunity will come up one day to get one as a weekend driver.

 

good choice OP

 

since its a kit car.. save up ur money and do it urself.. then you know how it was built.. and can custom build it the way you want ...

 

He's asking $35,000. I don't think your Tacoma will net that unless you have a ton of money into it.
Plus it will either get stolen, crashed, or broke, then what ya going to have?

 

That's why I figured it could be a good deal...most cobras in the condition of this one usually sells for 30k-50k. My Tacoma wouldn't come near that. The guy simply needs a truck and doesn't have room for the cobra, so he says.

 

It's a kit car, who knows what it's worth really?

 

This is true. True cobra's are over 500k in good condition. You'd have to be rich to own one. That's why almost every one you see is a kit car.
