Re: #1866 for sale

I am the third owner of this car. The second owner told me the story he got was that the first owners son was using the car to commute to college and supposedly ran into one of the concrete posts in the parking lot. Yes it appears the hood and fender have been replaced at some point. The second owne...

Re: #1866 for sale

The hood and paint are original. It is not anywhere near a show car as it has it's share of paint chips and scratches for 287,000 miles but in all not in bad shape.

#1866 for sale

It is time for me to put up my 93 cobra for sale. It quite possibly could be the highest mileage 93 cobra in existence with over 287,000 miles. The first owner used it as a commuter car for years racking up all of the freeway miles. I have spent a lot of money and time replacing all of the springs, ...

Camshaft selection

I am looking into rebuilding my old tired block and was wondering if there was a cam selection that you guys prefer for a 302 that will still give smooth idle, work with the 1:7 rockers and give a boost in power. This is not a race motor. I just am looking for a boost in performance that I can enjoy...

Re: Black-Greyleather 78kmiles? $4,500 CA

I called this guy yesterday and he said that he has two guys in a bidding war over it. His current offer was solid at $5,800. It may end up selling for $6,000.

Springs & Shocks

My Cobra is in desperate need of new springs and shocks. Anybody have any recommendations for me that doesn't kill the ride quality? I know there are a lot of "package kits" that the resto places are selling. Some info on any would be great. Thanks!

Wheel Paint

Hey there, my cobra is in need of having it's wheels repainted. I see that Late model Restoration has some grey wheel spray paint but wasn't sure about it.

Also, any ideas on black touch up paint for the body?

New owner for #1866

Hey there, just wanted to say that #1866 is still alive. I purchased it from a local guy who didn't want it anymore. It has 284,000 miles on it and is in remarkably good shape for having so many miles. It was used as a commuter all of it's life and fortunately never wrecked although it does have som...
