December 2013 - cobramustang1993

Post by dbrennancobra »

Congrats to SANDY "cobramustang1993" on December 2013 mustang of the month! What a beautiful ride!

Name: Sandy Blaser
Age: 66
State: California Resident
Years within mustang/show cars hobby: 23 years as a mustang owner/collector

Career: Retired-Furniture Mfg. President of a California Furniture Mfg Co. specializing in store fixture and case good manufacturing...Background in Furniture Design

Personal interest outside of mustangs: enjoy all types of Photography

What other cars (currently) and or had in the past? collector cars
I Have owned many GT's and Cobras....about 14 or so since 1991......
Presently have 2-Cobra R's #77, and #85 (#77 is for sale, as you all know....).
I also have a 89GT that I drive to car events....26K miles, unrestored

Family history - how you got into this hobby/car collecting?
Got into the hobby when my father brought home a 1957 Thunderbird for my sister's high school graduation present in 1958.....I was 11 years old and fell in love with the little bird, and did a frame-off restoration in 1991....Yes, it's still in the family and goes to concourse events at least once a year..

1993 car info:
I restore and specialize in Unrestored Foxbody Mustangs at this time.........

The 93 Cobra #77 was an Ariz Barn/Garage Find with 522 miles at this time......
and #85 was purchased from 2nd owner in Virginia- a wrapper with 22 miles.....

How do you enjoy your rides:
I am a regional director of MCA in So. Calif and attend as many MCA shows as I can which is 3 a year, plus 3-4 local shows.....

What would be your next car to add to the stable?
I would hope to purchase a 95R and 2000R in the future...

No, a "D" code.....but usually a fine presentation of a #1 E Code would be in the 95-125K dollar range......I think 2 drunk guys with more money than sense got into a dueling dollar game on this car.......#2 bidder was the real winner on this one.......

You've been holding out on us, Admin. Got any other 50s gems hidden away somewhere?
