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?

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?

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