Well I guess this is sort of a welcome back for me....havnt been on the forum in years since I sold my old 01 Blown GT as many will remember the car.....I am sure there are a ton of new faces and old around but I couldn't resist getting back into a mustang for my DD.... So I can Finally can say I have the body style cobra I have always wanted! Just a brief history, have owned a 91GT at 15 years old, sold for a stock 92 emerald green notch, sold for a 00 GT which later got sold for an 01 Blown GT which later got sold for my current 69 Nova. Yes let the hate begin View attachment 111602 I have always wanted a 96-98 Cobra but never did pull the trigger until yest. Just picked up a 1996 Crystal White Cobra with tan/black guts with 105k on it for what I felt was a very very fair price especially from a dealer. So far love the car to death, it is my new DD and I grin ear to ear driving itView attachment 111603 Car has 105k miles with the last owner who was in his 50's did all the modifications which everything below is less then 10k miles and 2 years old. They include:

1996 Crystal White Cobra #234 of #7496 according to SVT Cert. which I also recieved

Car runs like a top, but did notice the 96 heating issue, so will look at an tuner to adjust fan speeds etc and want to replace the stupid bbk intake tube!

Car does have a minor paint issue right below PS rear quarter window with about a 6x3" spot peeling off, but it goes into the paint booth this weekend and will be fixed!

Here she is:











And here is the ugly stepchild if anyone cars. 1969 Nova SS 377 Small Black 8K RPM motor pump gas probably 550hpish with a 4 spd muncie and a 9" with 4.56 gears

Welcome back. Cobra looks good. Should be a nice daily driver. That Nova is sick. A friend of mine had a 70 and a 72 Nova. I got a soft spot for Novas.
