I haven't really kept very close records on what all I've spent on the red cobra, but this is a rough estimate:

Now, with my white cobra project car, I've kept meticulous records.
The total spent is bound to increase once the project is resumed in the spring and I start working on it again.
But here's what I've spent so far:

[ElrodKTPQ_89]

Car: $560Wheels and tires: $500Cobra seats: $300Full exhaust: $500Engine rebuild: $2100Still haven't totalled up receipts on all the new parts after the rebuild but I would put it close to 1K (including wiring harness, injectors, all new sensors, radiator, alternator, etc. etc. etc.) Kinda upsetting that I spent so much money on a car when my real passion is my old F-150 but I plan on getting back on it as next years project!

 

[FivepointSlow]

I just realized I never added in the money spent at the junk yard and autozone...
My new figure:
Car - $2,000
Parts - $2458.47
Labor - So far I haven't had to pay for any labor.. Thankfully.

 

[bonestock3.8DTH]

The car was 2000 dollars

wheels-$300
springs-$200
shocks-$360
8.8 rear end, moser forged axles, gears installed, ford racing 11.65 disc brake swap- $800ish
13 inch Cobra brakes, hawk pads, power slot rotors- $550
Hood, L&R fenders, front bumper, spoilerless trunk lid- $250
Paint- $2000
Tires- $550
Radiator, Alternator, Top end gasket kit - $370ish

There is a lot of other stuff I can't remember at the moment buuuut the total plus the purchase price of the car is like 11,000 or so.. You have no idea how much it sucks to have that much in a old v6 Mustang with 200k miles.. and thats why I don't like to think about how much I've spent on my car hahah

 

[Brandon123]

shortblock with assembly- $5700
heads- $2500
intake/carb/fogger kit- $1900

ok... I don't want to think about it anymore.

 

[Stad95GT]

Bought my '95 in '96 for $14,500. I have around $17,000 in receipts for mods. 100,000 miles with original paint.

 

[MustangChris]

if i knew, i'd shoot myself. so as far as im concerned, $5,000.00.... ish.

 

[the5.ohh]

I've put around 2500 into it besides the $$ for the car.. Don't even ask me what I spent on exhaust, ill throw up.

 

[Steven]

Whenever I buck up and buy the seats, the coil overs, the IRS, the turbo, and the fuel system I want, I will have the equivalent of a small Indonesian village invested.

 

[whiplash473]

I could put a down payment on a fuggin house and I've done every ounce of labor myself.

 

[Rallim]

I figure it's a better idea NOT to keep track of how much.

I've always profited.... I am currently in the black big time....

my 94 I was only 3800 dollars in it.... That had full suspension and a 347
then I traded it off for a fully restored 66
traded that for a 1 of 1 98 SS Camaro
mikey got that and I got his truck and a SC
sold the truck and SC for almost 9 g
bought a 97 Gt for 2200 bucks put 300 in it.
Traded it for a 95 GT ( current car) and got cash from him also...

so yeah I'm still in the black

You you guys really need to start flipping cars or parts.

 

[SVT CAMR]

27 for the car in 1998 and 13 in parts. Out of that I never even rebuilt the motor. :shocked: Now it's got 46k on the odometer and going closer to stock. Just want to drive the hell out it now. it was a garage and track whore it's whole life.

I could have bought a rental property with the time and money I spent. Right about now it would be paid off. lol

 

[SLOW95GTS]

We'll i got my car for 3000 and got 200 for the wheels and another 200 for my birthday so car came out to 2600 in total.
Plus 1500 in maintainance so 4100 total with heads cam and all the other stuff. Most of my parts were free or given to me like I was given a fox cobra intake and gt40 heads I sold get my eddy heads and sn95 cobra intake.
