[molson12]

hey

I am really having trouble with this.
I have an 85 mustang GT.
But on the back it says cobra on the factory paint, ive seen several cars with the same logo./
why does it say this when cobras werent made in 1985?/or were they?

GT,s built in Canada were badged as Cobra,s.

Well if that is true I learned something new today. I asked that same question a while ago but never seen the answer. I thought someone just put those stickers on. Is that the only difference?.....one sticker? On the ones I have seen there is no other easily noticeable differences or extra features. Makes one wonder why call it a cobra?

Go to this site www.mustanggt.org.. This site has a lot of info on the early gt,s and the canadian gt,s. i belomged to this group a couple of years back when i had my 83 but since i bought my cobra i no longer visit took me a minute to find it.

Yup thats the only differnce just a sticker (dumb) i have no idea why they felt the need to do that, i guess us Canadians need help in buying cars or something.

Canada has always been old school in some areas (thank God) couldn,t let go of the idea of the old Shelby Cobras maybe.
