I am putting my cobra up for sale hopefully for the last time. She needs a new home as I don't have time for her. The car previously had a procharger f1a setup on it and no one was interested in it or the corbeaus I had in the car. So I swapped the procharger for a KB 2.6H setup, and swapped the corbeaus for front and rear 03/04 seats. Why swap do all this work just to sell it? Because I need the room, I don't drive the car enough, and I have other car projects going on=perfect trifecta of can't keep the car. The chassis has just over 39,000 original miles on it now. I've owned the car since dec. of 2008 and it had 32,000 miles. I have many many pics of the car, build etc and would love to share those with potential buyers. The car will also come with brand new adjustable UCA's, SCT pro racer package tuning software and tune files, SCT XCAL3 handheld device, custom black and green California car cover, of course the battery box cover and strap, and anything I have left over stockwise from the car including the seatbelts if you prefer not to use the harnesses. This is a super clean, nice and tight build. I have 40k in parts alone in the car, so I feel my price is fair and priced to move it along to another caring owner. I am asking for $19K for the car.
feel free to pm me, respond here, text or email

here are some pics and the parts list- if you need any additional pics of vids etc just ask.


















The only bad thing about the car are it has the normal highway use chips and it needs new tires- the front and rears are just old, I don't drive it much so it just sits. I drove it 5 hours round trip last week with zero issues, but as far as rear traction is concerned- they're not up to it at all. hence why I don't have definative numbers on the car. I DO have a graph of it pulling to 5000 rpm before the tires were spinning on the mustang dyno and it was making 600/570 on pump93oct, 15 degrees of timing and 14.5psi. The car is pullied for 17psi. But please don't let that put you off if you are serious about the car- if numbers are the only thing holding you back, then contact me and maybe we can work something out- I'm just done with messing with the car for it to just sit.

Amazing looking ride. Just a little out of my price range i'm afraid. Who did your engine work if I may ask? I'm in Asheville and recognized the Sonic parking lot there. Good luck on the sell
