After driving to 7 different states, I drove this one back from South Carolina. I just cant believe the junk that is out there and they want big $ for them. This one has a 94 Cobra motor, crane cam and suppose to have some port work done and said its a 306 but I will find out for sure soon. It's a 89 ...ac and cruise even work. 100% rust free and straight with perfect paint.

I feel you man. Thats all I found a few years ago when I bought mine. That and everyones idea of the perfect coupe is always different than what your looking for.

Yes, it is, and it's very clean, I've already seen it and looked it over. Just very nice, clean example of a 5.0 coupe.

sweet ride.....more pics

Took me a while but I took a few...

http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d183/kennebellcobra/Coupefront.jpg

I also pulled the upper to see if there was port work. The lower barley looks touched but they did a decent job on the heads, just smaller than what I did on the Flamer. I also borrowed a camera to look down in. I put it down the spark plug hole too and the pistons look identical to my old stock cobra piston I have hanging on the wall so I think its a stock bottom end or was just freshened with stock pistons. I love this little camera! This is a pic of the intake valve/boss/guide...

So what's the suspension setup? I'm SO glad you got rid of those chrome bullets :lol:

The ride height and tire size is perfect in my book.

Granatelli weight jacker lowers and adjustable uppers, kyb shocks, stock rears with a coil cut out,

intrax front springs...probably will be switching to coil overs soon.
