1997 Cobra Black/Black #4946 of #6961, 99% BONE STOCK
I figure that I should start a thread with the info on the cobra that i ended up getting...
I have been searching for quite a while now for a 96-98 cobra... the one i ended up getting was the FIRST one I talked to someone about...
going to try and make this short....
Bought this off the second owner... he bought it last July off the original owner who was about 50.... I posted a WTB ad, on a local mustang forum... and I got a few bites quick. the 97 quickly grabbed my attention.. I was going to look at it one weekend, but abruptly i had emergency surgery on my appendix... basically he called me a flake and that i wasnt serious about buying... so i kept searching while i was on disability from work for two weeks. found a hit on a 96, had tan interior tasteful mods, the interior leaned me away a little, it had 84k miles....
Out of the blue last week i text the guy with the 97 asking if he still had it... he did, I jumped instantly, told him i would be down that weekend with money... well i got off graveyards that weekend. so my friend came and got me in the morning from my house. she drove me about an hour and a half away. Instantly i knew it needed tires... they were bald as , but evenly worn...
But some how... my lady friend talked me into it (thank god).... i ended up with this....
i know you guys will get a chub over this.......
Came with the following...
both sets of keys and remotes.
Original leather bra
(2) SVT driving school papers
(2) SVT authenticity Certificates
a extra valve cover sticker with the builders names
The 97 cobra information
window sticker
the paper that the original owner worked on negotiating the price with the dealer.
The SVT maintinence leather log book with all papers.
oh and it has sexy mudflaps
YES i know, its dirty, i havent vacuumed it, i only sprayed it off with water at the car wash and used a shammy.... wax will be in session tomorrow, then when it warms up some clay!
Don't laugh at my mismatched tires.. (wait i already did ha)
i drove to salt lake for a nice pair of tires, and the tire shop couldn't find them, so it has two different pairs on it for the time being so i could make the 100 mile trip home safe,
I must say, I am in love with DOHC modulars now....
Plan wise... not much, MGW short throw. next week it will be getting some tint for sure.. thinking 5% all the way around, and probably 373's so i can do some decent efficient freeway cruising... and im sure exhaust will fit in there somewhere.
how she sits right now.....
all i did was put the cobra front emblem on...
