Well ive had the 03 for about a year and a half now. I love the car, but im getting tired of it. I kinda miss messing with my old 95 in the garage, not to mention alllllll the money i would have in the bank with the 03 gone.

I also have some good investment oppurtunities coming up here in the next few months so having the money from the 03 sale will be key.

This time around i WILL HAVE A PLAN for the car. Not like last time were i bought parts and later sold them for a new setup and wasted money.

Ill be looking for a 94 or 95 GT roller most likely (no motor) with a decent to good body, then sticking either a stock bottom end or something a little built, along with another single turbo kit like i had. Ill put a off the shelf cam in, and whatever heads i can find for short money. Im gonna go with the PMS unit and a wideband so i can learn to do the tuning myself and not worry about taking the car an hour away to blow a HG on a dyno LOL.

I still need to plan out every little part ill go with and do it all at once. Im looking to spend under 10k for the project, so ill be classified whoreing for alot of stuff.

Im pretty excited and looking forward to this. I just need to break in the 03's clutch then sell it. I think it will sell easy cause there are NO 03/04 cobras forsale up in this area right now.

I look forward to becoming a true stangnet 94/95 member again.
 
Damn boy... Your worse than I ever thought of being....:D

I do know someone who may wanna part with a Teal 95 V6....motors broke or some chit....its not going anywhere soon either...
 
Is this an april's fool joke or something? I thought the biggest thing you liked about the '03 was the fact that you didn't have to work on it, now you want a 94-95 so you can work on it? It'll be cool to have you back in the saddle with an '94-'95 again, but I'd think long and hard about that decision. There's something to be said about the streetability and ease of massive HP available from the '03-'04 cobras.

I do like that i dont have to work on it. But to me, the most important thing is these investment oppurtunities i have coming up. Haveing all the money from the 03 is a must. I have an oppurtunity to make ALOT of money in the next year or two, and i need to have 25k from the cobra to back me up. I need to do the mature thing now, and put my future ahead of the present.

I still need a hobby when i sell it, cars have always been my hobby. Id like to do another single turbo setup(wish i never gave up on it before). My car situation is different now as well, since i have a new jeep grand cherokee (my moms) and work trucks to drive whenever i need to, so having a car thats running 100% of time is not important.

AS far as im concerned, the cobra is gone when i find a buyer. What i get next.. who knows. Most likely a 94-95. There are some h/c/i ls1's around here for sale every so often for short money as well, so one of those are an option. But i know these 94/95's so well its really a no brainer to go that direction.

5.0 GT - im gonna list is at 26.5k, and see if i get any bites.
 
Seems like everybody is doing it. A bunch of us went out and bought '03 Cobras... and within the last few months almost all of my friends have sold them. And then I bought rice! :lol:

Can't wait to see what you put together. Except for your budget, I sure like the idea of the 408W. Or even better... 514 :D. Not cheap options though.
