LOCATION OF CAR: PITTSBURGH PA
CAR SPECS:
I am the orginal owner of the car. It has 6500 miles
on it and was bought brand new from Woltz n Wind Ford for $30,900 in October 2004. It was one of the last 03-04 Cobras
left.
This car has been my baby ever since its been bought and a
tremendous amount of time and care have gone into this vehicle. This is a true street and strip car. It has ran a best of
10.07 @ 140.4 mph at the strip at a race weight of 3860 pounds. That's roughtly 815 rwhp. It had a whipple blower installed
at 500 miles on the OD. This car idles and runs perfect, no tuning issues what so ever, and is the perfect sleeper until you
get on it. Since the last time I race I've found out that locking up 2nd gear is good for another tenth so this car is definetely
a high 9 second car in colder weather, low 10 second car in hot weather.
CONDITION:
Very good. Since I put a lot of abuse on the factory
engine I decided to put a new engine in it for the new owner. It has a brand new
Ford 04 Cobra long block that has only 100 miles on it. I have the receipt and documentation for the new engine
and it comes with a warranty from Ford. The engine's condition can be verified and I would be glad to do a compression
test with the new owner.
The car has always garage kept, was out in the rain only 3
times from unavoidable circumstances. The body is in outstanding shape (not one ding) with the exception of 3 small nicks
which you can see in the pictures. Never in an accident or any type of collision. Car is inspected until 9-07.
I would rate the conditon of the body in good shape. It has one nick on the passenger fender,
one nick on the back bumper, and one nick on the front bumper cover. The hood has a slight crack in the paint and could
stand to be repainted. Other than that the paint is mint, and has been zainoed several times. There is not one ding in any
of the body work.
WHY I AM SELLING:
My wife's expecting our first child in June. Daycare
is about $800/month and I have a $550 car payment that I just can't afford anymore. It breaks my heart to have to sell
this car but I've been Modifying and Racing Mustangs since 1988. I don't need the toys anymore at this point in my life.
WHY BUY THIS CAR OVER ANOTHER ONE?
You know exactly what you are getting with this car. This car has full
documentation. I have over 100 hundred pictures of this car.I have over 60 dyno sheets, and a hundred SCT tuning files. I
will not BS anyone just to sell a car. I will be honest and upfront about every question asked. I will also offer my support
after the sale of the car. This car is turn key ready, if the new owner decides to modify the
car I will offer my time and assistance to dial the mods in free of charge.
If the new owner wants to detune the car I can detune the car. If they
want to step it up a little bit more I can help there too.
I am also well known among the Mustang community and I promoted drag racing
events for 5 years. I've been a heavy contributer to www.corral.net and www.modularfords.com for the past 8 years. I won't disappear after the sale.
HOW STREETABLE IS THIS CAR?
I get asked that question a lot. This car can do anything a bone stock Mustang cobra can.
It idles stock, doesn't overheat, maintains a good battery charge, and gets about 14-15 miles per gallon on the highway if
you keep your foot out of it. This car is setup to run on straight race gas (Turbo Blue 100 unleaded). It can be detuned
for pump gas with no problems if that is an important issue.

Nov 2004:
With 500 miles on the car I took the car to Alternative Auto in Michigan

a SCTBA2400 mass air meter, and Accufab throttle body. The car made 550 rwhp/520 torque with 16 pounds of boost. Read more
