The facts
2003 DAX Cobra – 383 Stroker V8 | Tremec TKO | DB Replicas Built | Exceptional Specification – £39.995
Built for the taller gentleman, this DAX Cobra is a superbly specified example of one of the most respected Cobra replicas available, combining iconic styling with serious V8 performance and a high-quality build.
Originally built in 2003 by renowned Cobra specialist Dave Brookes of DB Replicas, this is an original chassis car that has clearly benefited from careful ownership and ongoing development throughout its life. Finished to a high standard and featuring a host of desirable upgrades, it offers a driving experience that is every bit as exciting as its appearance suggests.
At its heart sits a formidable 383ci Chevrolet Stroker V8, delivering the unmistakable sound, torque and character that Cobra enthusiasts seek. Power is transferred through a highly desirable Tremec TKO manual gearbox and Jaguar Power-Lok differential, providing strong performance and excellent drivability.
The engine was comprehensively rebuilt by Austec Racing in 2007, incorporating an Eagle fully forged rotating assembly, COMP Camshaft, upgraded sump, MSD ignition components and Edelbrock carburation, resulting in a robust and highly capable package.
This example also benefits from an extended footwell configuration, making it particularly suitable for taller drivers without compromising the classic Cobra driving position.

The years of manufacture are shown from the time each model was produced in the final prototype. However, it’s helpful to remember that a small number of cars fall outside of the production dates shown because they are pre-prototype releases, trials or realised ideas. The numbers of each model produced are best estimates, not exact figures. Even with these exceptions, all Pilgrim’s models have passed the necessary tests of their day and are fully road-legal, low-volume-production motor vehicles.
