I was at my friends the other day, and backed out of the driveway and I noticed a huge puddle of greenish fluid under where my back passenger wheel was. I was freaking out because I thought my brakes had burst or something and I finally got it home and jacked it up to look at it. The stock exhaust was rubbing on the rear shock and it blew out the bottom.. Turns out the last guy that owned the car either backed into something or somebody rear ended him. The metal frame that is beneath the bumper on the right side is all chewed up and the square support isn't even attached to it anymore. Oh, and it rubbed a hole in my exhaust as well. He did a great job hiding it, but I guess thats what i get for buying a Cobra at an estate sale. But I guess that means i get to put a new exhaust on it eventually.... sorry no pics, but the camera is broken...
