Main Info:

Bought this Cobra in Dec 2000.  I have only put 12,000 miles on it since then.  I am the second owner (bought it with 14,000 miles on it).  It is an Austin car and originally came from Covert Ford.  It has been garaged since I have owned it and has primarily been a weekend car.  The car has been perfectly maintained and looks and drives like a new car.  The car gets lots of compliments.  I ran a Carfax on it when purchased and had it inspected from top to bottom - it has never been wrecked.  It has never been in any kind of accident since I have had it.  Also I am a non-smoker and so was the prior owner (no smoke smells or burns in interior).

I have kept and acquired collectors information on the car including the following documents:

    * SVT Certificate    (shows limited product number and date the car was built)
    * Original window sticker (shows list price, all options for this car, gas mileage, etc)
    * I have the output of the Carfax I ran when I bought the car showing the car has a clean history and no known accidents.

The shine on this paint gets tons of looks and looks better in person.  Laser Red was only produced in 96 and
98 Cobras for this body style with the 4.6L Cobras.  It has a metal flake look up close in the sun.

Here is the Bullitt pedals I added.  Much better than the black plastic originals.  Also the gas and break pedal
are at the same height for heal toe driving.
