Introduction...My Blk cobra with 9500 miles #2680
Posted: Wed Jan 16, 2013 2:12 am
Hi Guys,
I've been trolling the forums for a very long time, years really since I first discovered it.. I guess I waited for something big to share to make my first post?!
So i've owned a few mustangs in my time, my first one being an 85 Gt t-top when I was 16..... Way back 20+ years now.. Man I'm old. Anyways, I now have a cobra with only 9500 miles on it and love it. It's like going thru a time machine when I sit in it. Reminds me of when as a teenager, I used to sit in a new unlocked one at the dealership and just dream!
I've had it a while now, was fortunate to buy it off a client who moved away and have stored it since. I plan on the occasional drive, maybe to a show or two.
I've yet to get all the paperwork on it, but I'm still in touch with the previous owner so i haven't been in any hurry.
But quick details about it are, it's a Blk on grey cloth, sunroof, rear defrost, gold plated cobra emblems (not sure what I think of them, but its unique. I remember it was the thing to do in the early 90's, any of you remember that, lol), and MINT, of course with such low miles. Not even sure what all the options are, or even the number, but I'm guessing somewhere between 2679-2876? How do I find out?
Here is the million dollar question to all of you... So it is all stock...EXCEPT, it's supercharged! Specificity, a Procharger with inter cooler. It has the relocation kit to move the battery to the washer fluid spot, boost retard, inline fuel pump and all that should be installed with the supercharger. It's runs perfectly and fast! The only other after market is the bolt sub frames and magna flow mufflers.
Of course this can all be reversed, but what would you do? It is a very clean and professional install, the previous owner spared no expense (he is a pro athlete and the car meant a lot to him). I'm not sure if I can find the original mufflers anymore, so I'd have to search for some. I know all original is worth more, but I do plan on keeping it a long time. And man that supercharger whine is sweet! Also, I was planning on ordering a personalized plate for it, "SC SVT" to match an older E36 M3 convertible the family enjoys in the summer, "SC M3".
I bought a 4 post drive up hoist and its sits on top, so it sure is nice to look at it once in a while. Even to walk underneath it...did I mention how clean it is?!? Still has the original tires.
So thanks for letting me introduce my car!
Lets hear the arguments for and and against, please! Your opinions are appreciated.
Pics once I find a little time to figure it out.
Just found out I'm #2680
Thanks 1993cobra!!
