Does Anyone Have Information On This Car?

[Vettn71]

I just bought this 85 from my son. It's been passed around some by car flippers the last few years.

What I know:
It was built about 2008 and was featured in many of the Mustang magazines then. I don't have any of those articles. If anyone has one, I'd like a scan of it

It has a 2003-2004 Cobra lower front bumper molded in, 93 Cobra rear bumper and side skirts

It has a full SN 95 interior conversion and rear seat delete

It had air bag suspension, but was replaced with coilovers, full sn95 5-lug conversion, 8.8 rear with 3:55 gears, four-wheel disk brakes

Stock block 302, aluminum heads, aftermarket fuel injection

Wire tuck in engine compartment, Tremec 3550, b-cam, I think

Car still looks good, but there's some paint issues that are coming out as it ages

If anyone can offer any information, pictures or articles it would be most appreciated

TIA

Jim

I've seen pics of that car. That's about all I have though

It has a 50resto sticker on the windshield, maybe @Tyler@LMR or @ZIAD@LMR can help.
I seen that car before, not in person, I still get a couple mustang rags in the mail but I don't save them anymore.

Thanks for both your replies. It's had a hard life the last few years. Although it looks good, the paint is beginning to show its age, and the right front forward frame rail needs to be replaced. Nothing too daunting, but I be t it was "gee-whiz" in its day. I keep hearing people say, "Oh, yeah. I've seen that car, but not much in the way of solid leads.

If anyone has better information, please chime in. Karthief, I'll give Tyler and Ziad a push this week and see if I can drag anything up

Thanks for the help

@Tyler@LMR and
@ZIAD@LMR

Any information you can offer? The car is getting to where it needs maintenance, but I'm not certain what parts it has on it

Regards
Jim

Hey man, I have seen it around as well but I am not quite sure. I am betting Tyler knows more about it. I will get with him to gather more info.

Hey Jim,

Have you got into contact with Juaquin Rodriguez? He is, to my knowledge, the one who did most of the work when he owned it.

Well, my son, who traded a 93 hatch for this car did talk to him............

and the conversation did not go well, from what I understand. I don't know that he would want to talk to someone who fathered such a rude person. He really has no tact. My understanding is that Juaquin hung up on him, so I would consider that bridge pretty burnt
