I sold the GT because it was too obnoxious for a DD, I love how civalized this car is and yet how fast and powerful it is when I get on it. I am only going to get new stock seats because the drivers side is pretty worn and has a few cracks, replace the steering wheel because its worn and they are only $180 new at 50Resto. It has 3.73's, BBK H-pipe, Magnaflow exaust, a Jet chip, Eibach springs (progressive), Bilstien shocks and MM full length subframes. I have BBK camber plates to install, I will eventually get lower controll arms and a Panhard bar. As for power I want to get rid of the Jet chip and get a Hypertech Power Programmer, a set of Headers (god are they expensive for these!) and mabey a fenderwell intake

As for the wheels I am thinking of Steeda ultralites or Saleen (that olde five spoke) in 18x10.5 or 10 for the rear and 18x9 for the fronts. I want to rum 295's in the back and 265's in the front. What you guys think?

Congrats... That things clean ....Makes me miss my old 97 Cobra...

I ran 18x9 & 18x10's with 265's & 295's...They fit perfect...

I like the mods u have so far & the panhard & lca's would go nicely with what u have already....

Thanks, love this thing. And it was not eleventybillion, it was more like tentybillion
I like the 03 wheels but I want to go 18 all around. Somebody on here had some nice steedas ultralight II I think, but I cant find them anymore

And I wanted to thank everyone for answering my questions befor I bought the car, good group of Mustang lovers!

awesome Cobra Laser Red has always amazing on that bodystyle IMO.

Pretty good mods you have planned. Steeda Ultralights would look sweet on there.

Nice cobra
I had two 5.0s when I bought my cobra, wasn't that much later that I sold my 91 then a couple years later my 88. I just lost interest in the 5.0s, I love 4v power and the refinement of the sn95 body.

The ones I was talking about are not black, they come in silver or chrome. The ones that were on the S-351 and the SS-351. It may be 18x10.5 I really am not sure

I will get a notch at some point, but I agree, I love how this car behaves!

Thanks for the compliments guys, the car was too good of a deal and I will keep it till it or I dies.
