1993 Cobra Registry

After a good 10 year search I finally found what I was looking for. Bone stock down to the air silencer. I have never seen this color combo with black interior until I found this one. Plans for this include a forged 302 shortblock, Twisted Wedge heads, Holley Systemax intake and a polished S-Trim. Cant wait to get started. I forgot how doggish a 5.0 automatic with 2.73s is!!

Damn, that's a nice car.

Not trying to be nosey, but what did you pay for it? How many miles does it have?

It does look good! But the AOD

Like the color, a stock GT is rare you sure you want to tear it up?

I only paid $3800 for it Buddah. I had it shipped here from Portland which cost me $650 but I was pleasantly surprised when it got here. All vin tags present and the underside looks nice. It's got 133k on it.

I don't consider the mods it's going to get as tearing it up. The stock engine is going on a stand and I never hack anything on my cars. Everything I take off will be kept to put back to stock if so desired. The outside of the car is going to stay exactly the way it is.

Sweet acquisition bro. Good luck with it!!

That is a nice find, with them miles I wouldn't worry too much about modding it. have fun with it and enjoy it.

Wow! That car is in amazing shape, what a deal!!!
Really like color combo with the black interior!

Is that the original paint?

Damn, no kidding? You did very well IMO. That car is is awesome shape and uber clean. Nice snag!

Nice! My first 5.0-powered Mustang was that same exterior color combo. Bought it back in 96. Should have never sold it! Congrats!

Thanks guys. I am enjoying driving it. We've had such nice weather here lately I have been able to get it out.

Yep, all original paint. It's got a few scratches and nicks here and there but not too bad at all. One weekend of detail and I think it will stand out nice.

I bought one of this color combo new in 93 with gray interior and no roof. I put 15k on it and and sold it in 97 when we bought our house. I didn't think I could afford the house payment and the $144 a month I was paying on the Mustang. I've never seen another one around here. So happy to have this one. It's not a 93 Cobra but the next best thing IMO.

X2. Your planned mods will certainly make you forget about the AOD w/2.73 gears.

Speaking of the auto and 2:73's, I bought a used 93' vert off the lot without even test driving it back in 94'. After many years driving my 89' LX 5-speed with 3:08's, I hopped in this after signing the papers and for a bit seriously thought there was something wrong with the car. It was an absolute slug!

HA, I thought that the first time I drove this one. I had forgotten how much of a slug they are. I've got some 3.55's that are going in it just as soon as possible. I'm sure that will make a world of difference just doing that.

I had 4.10s in a 92 gt with aod worked good not too low
