CAR IS LOCATED IN COLUMBIA MO

Up for sale is a 97 rio red cobra. 95k on the motor, has rebuilt rear end with 4:10's, and a new T-45 from ford. It does need some work and has some issues but is a very solid project and probally the cheapest 4v cobra out there. The vehicle is a prior salvage and from what I was told it was in a flood. I cannot confirm this but the interior has no smells and all electronics work besides cruise control. The issues are mainly body, paint, throwout bearing, and needs some new hydraulic valve lash adjusters. I've found a set of 32 valve lash adjusters for under $200, and throwouts can be had dirt cheap. I'd fix the issues I just have no time at the moment. I am firm on the price and if I don't get what I'm asking I'll just keep it. Might take trades for auto daily driver Mustangs or four door cars.
