Super Cobra is a show car version of the 1969 Fairlane's "going thing" in performance, the Cobra. It features a unique two-part grille, a tall, wide shaker air scoop, and a louvered backlight. The airscoop is a modification of the Cobra's air scoop, allowing cool, above-the-hood air to rush directly into the air cleaner, giving a power boost from the engine. The Super Cobra is powered by Ford's 335-horsepower, 428 cubic-inch-displacement Cobra Jet Ram Air engine, a popular option in the hot new car.
