AC Cobra "Replica" with a Viper V10 is a pretty cool concept... Still should have used a "Ford" V10 Tritan Engine, if he wanted to use a V10, keeping it all FoMoCo !!... at least it's not the A-Typical SBC/BBC...LOL... sorry I couldn't resist...

Nice purple/black paint. I wonder what the vehicle weighs?

It's gotta be an absolute rocket! But even though the motor is aluminium (a nod to our POM's language), the weight must be an issue as far as handling.

The ad states a 2005 engine. These third generation V-10s didn't weigh much more than 500 lbs, or about 175 lbs less than the Ford 427.
