Here you go. This car was rough one owner but sat rotting for 5 years. Got it in August 05 and finally got it started. Had to change the fuel pump and give it a tune up. THen the OD gear was destroyed so had to rebuild the tranny. Now she is getting there. anyway here are my before and afters.

hissin...ur car reminds me of my 1st car that i bought, not a hand me down from the parents.....a 79 cobra turbo 4 speed...no options, no ac, vinyl seats that didn't recline, am/fm with 2 dash speakers, black with tan interior. those blue seats in ryan's blue vert look like the ones i threw in the dumpster 2 years ago! same color an fading. i picked up some gray leather gt seats for 30 bucks an dyed them black.

Before / after the engine bay project



Engine began 100% stock to the air filter but here it is a couple years ago vs. now:



Stock w/Cobra R's vs. now:



Old 95 Cobra R rims w/73mm calipers & drilled/slotted stock replacement rotors vs. Bullitt swap & 99 Cobras



the old interior look vs. more white worked in for a better flow (IMO anyway!):



I think that's about it
