Congrats to MARCH ROTM WLTANG!!!

My 1994 Cobra (now nicknamed Ex-Terminator) started life as a bone stock cobra. It was later powered by a Vortech SC. Then i decided to switch to a single turbo. Before I could install it, i sold everything and started putting together the parts for a 408 with all big stuff and custom cam. This is where life changed. I found a good deal on basically a 04 cobra without the body.

A complete comversion started around Sept. 2007. It was completed around May 2008. A 5.0 magazine photo shoot was done at the NMRA Columbus event in Sept 2008. Look for the feature late summer early fall 2009.

Very nice... Just a thought it would have been nice to see the interior and a shot from a rear angle because those are all the same.

Congrats! Very cool that you did most of the work yourself, I think that's what you told me.
