    I was going to ask why there was no oil spot on the floor, until I scrolled down and saw a Mustang. ;>)

    The only downside is having to mop the new tile floor. My neighbor always gives me a hard time whenever I do it, but you gotta love a shiny checkerboard floor with a Ferrari parked on it.

    you mean it started out as a regular Mustang but you've changed the engine, gearing and other misc parts/pieces over to make it a Cobra? Do you find that single exhaust outperforms the Cobra's dual exhaust (can't find tip #2). What did you do with the Cobra rear bumper when you replaced it with a Mustang one? Just curious....

    Nice garage by the way.

    Its a Cobra. Bought it used and it was bone stock. The car is getting repainted entirley or was going too but I am haveing some major money isuues and the car is going to sit or get sold. But the plan was to repain it. Im shaving all the emblems (more of a clean look) and would like to do stripes. I did not plan on filling in the word "CObra" when i got it painted and a buddy of mine offered me a price I couldn't refuse, so we swapped. The car no longer has the "cobra" hood, front or rear bumper, wheels or badges. Im not making it look like a 6cyl, but its not Cobra either. The only place it says CObra now are the brake calipers and the steering wheel. If I ever get out of this money hole It'll look great.

    Bummer you have to sell it -- hopefully you saved the cobra hood, bumpers etc cause its gonna be hard to get a good price on a cobra that looks like a plain 'stang.

    the onlt thing plain looking about that car is the back bumper. The grey unpainted bumper is the one that is on there now. The Cobra rear bumper obviously is gone. But that is the hood and wheels.
