    Turn signals and Vert top, what's the connection

    I recently sold my 1991 vert to my nephew. It was an occasional driver for me and I never had a problem with either the top or the turn signals. However, he's now having an intermittent problem with the turn signals not working and at the same time the top will not go up and down. Does...

    Whats a good tire ?

    The Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 was recently rated as the best all around high performance (wet and dry) tire by Car and Driver magazine. I have them on my Cobra and have been very happy with them. However, they're not cheap...

    what brand fuel

    Yep, same here and it sucks. There's been a definite decrease in performance and mileage in all of my vehicles since they started putting in ethanol. However, to answer the questions that was originally asked. I usually try to run Shell, though I'll use any Top Tier rated 93 octane if...

    Thinking of getting a 03 cobra?...

    Purely from a cost perspective, you should be able to get a modified one for less than the cost of a unmolested one that you then modify yourself. However, unless you know the previous owner very well, you run the risk of having to fix the problems someone else created. IMHO, buy a lightly...

    New land speed record for the Cobra!

    Any idea what, if any, aero mods were on the car to keep it from actually taking flight? Curious to see if the stock spoilers and airdam are up to the task at 200+...

    Door armrest pad alternative?

    Yep, I clamped mine in place with several small C clamps. Used some shims between the armrest and the clamp to make sure I didn't mess up the surface of the armrest and pre-drilled them. No problems so far and they have held up fine for over a year.

    Get wax on your black moldings? Simple removal trick...

    Black to Black doesn't remove the wax, it just covers it. My experience is that it makes things look good for a month or so then it needs to be reapplied. Griots and a couple of other companies make products that truly remove the wax, though they can be a bit of a pain to use depending on...

    99 Cobra Wheels and Tires Aftermarket?

    I'm running 245 40's on the rear with 18x9 rims and there's plenty of room to go wider. I'm wishing I had some 18x10's on the rear with at least 275's.

    KB Cobra wreck

    edit: looks like this topic has been well covered, I should have gone to the end of the thread before replying. It's not that he lost it, but where he lost it. If he didn't have the skills to control the car then he shouldn't have jumped on it on a public street. I've had fast cars get away...

    New Baer brakes, not working so well

    Does the pedal feel spongy? If it does, then you should probably try bleeding the system a couple more times. You may not have gotten all of the the air out. Especially if you can't even lock up the rear brakes.

    5.0 badge location.

    On my '91 they are 1.5 inches up from the top of the belt molding and 2.25 inches from the rear of the fender. Both measurements taken in the middle of the emblem.

    99-01 ??'s

    I'm getting about 20 mpg in around town driving and have hit 29 mpg on the highway in my 01 Cobra with stock rear gears. Depending on the mods you have your mileage will vary. I've never driven a 99-04 GT so I can't comment on whether they are more comfortable. Based on what I've read on...
