This has been a project of mine since highschool - taking it apart, putting it back together, taking it back apart - well finally after like, 6 years or so, it is back on the road leagally!

I dont know what future mods i have planned for it, if any, i do have lowering springs waiting to be put on - i just got new exhaust put on it yesterday, and FINALLY got my cobra Rs wrapped in 17x9 nittos put on!

Power to the 4 eyes!

Awesome, feels great to be back behind the wheel don't it? I went 15 months without mine and it was like a different car when i got it back.

Nice car! ...and a T-Top? Sweet!

My picks... ditch the wheels, install the Blue Oval, get some Halo headrests, and paint the center cowl.


Oh... and shiney chrome wheels look best on red cars.


...and there's something wrong with your license plate.

I think the Cobras will look a lot better once it gets lowered a little bit. Personally i would have the headlight buckets and all the window trim painted charcoal gray or satin black.
