Alright,

So I have found 3 more cars. These cars are all very very nice, and have an extremely good price on them.

Number One:

1996 chrystal white convertible Cobra. 41,000 miles. The exterior is a 8/10. The interior is about a 8/10. The top has 2 very small spots in it, but they are not holes. The top does not leak. It has a Vortech V1 S trim at 7-8 psi. It also has Eibach lowering springs. Other than that, the car is stock. Still has stock exhaust and all on it. The tune is the tune that comes with the kit from Vortech.

I can get this car for $7,000

Number two:

1996 Mystic cobra. 80,000 miles. Exterior is 8/10. The interior is 8/10. It has black FR500 wheels w/ a polished lip, stage 2 clutch w/ 1,500 miles, pro 5.0 shifter, 3.73 gears, MSD coil packs and wires, cold air intake, Cobra R hood, brand new 255lph fuel pump, new 24lb injectors.

The bad: needs new rear abs sensors.

I can get this car for $6,000

number three:

1997 Rio red cobra. 110,000 miles. 60,000 miles on new engine. Exterior is 9/10. The interior is 9/10. It has an MMR PT 900 (upgraded TKO 600), MMR RPT 700 clutch, Lakewood bellhousing, aluminum driveshaft, Strange 33 spline axles, Eaton Diff, Strange diff girdle, FRPP 4:56 gears, Steeda upper/lower control arms, Bassani O/R X pipe, Bassani catback, Eibach lowering springs, 95 Cobra R wheels.

I can get this car for $6,000

The 96 convertible cobra is about 7 hours away, the Mystic is 10 hours away, and the 97 cobra is about 23 hours away.

Which would do you think I should go with Stangnet?

I would get the Mystic. It is by far the most unique. We all know you can make the drivetrain into what you really want on your own.

I can't believe people are actually suggesting a stock cobra over a low-mile blown cobra.

This is a no-brainer IMO

The mystic having an aftermarket hood would kill it for me. Otherwise I would take it IF the paint is in good shape.

There was a flash flood here in my local town, and my 02 got to be apart of it.

He has the stock hood that comes with the car also.

NICE! This thread is making me want to sell my little ole 2v and pick up a pre 99 4v! I had an sn95 vert with the 5.0 in it and I always really liked that body style especially the cobra! Show us lots of pics when you pick her up!
