buying this car. Clean carfax, Paperwork comes with the car, I just didn't see it in the registry. I'm a fng, but I take it the registry is incomplete and I just need to add this car?

Anyone know info on this car?

Get some close ups of the roof, it might be aftermarket or a factory sunroof grafted in? your vin doesnt show the sunroof option 13C.

Well it has a sunroof now. I took it out to look at the drain chanels when I was test driving it, and it looks and functions the exact same as the sunroof in my first fox body (a 89 GT). So I assumed its original, or it could be that both the ones I'm familiar with are the same aftermarket one, but that seems unlikely.

I saw the window sticker and SVT certificate and letter, as well as a whole box of paperwork but I didn't study it thoroughly as the wife was waiting in the truck...

That's one of the reasons I was looking for the vin in the registry, as I usually do that with all the Cobras I look at ( I've looked at half a dozen over the past 9 months before deciding to buy this one ).

picking it up Sunday.

Run a Carfax on it, make sure all vin decals are in place, and make sure the window sticker is real and not a reproduction.

Also, check the tag (on drivers door) to see if there is a C under the S near the bottom right of the tag. Cobras with factory sunroofs will have a C in this location of the tag.

Thanks z282slo, I will look for that.

And 1993cobra I did check all the places I know of vin tags, (underside of each door, inner fenders, hatch, under rear bumper, and hood). Anywhere else?

Carfax came up clean, just changes in ownership and maintenance. A few failed emissions but always followed by passing tests.
