Figured I'd start me a thread about the 95' in order to of sorts document it all.
This is how I got it, definately had seen better days.

update as of 4/12/08
Me and pop cleaned up all the glass frag left on the sides, pulled the C pillar and A pillar moldings, and all the trashed stock 460 stuff out. Meanwhile after work I went by a friends and cleaned out most of his stock parts off his old wrecked 95 cobra. Got his decklid, 460 shelf unit, cover, carpet for the front and rear, also a CD player and some flowmaster tailpipes, for about 200 bucks. The decklid is at the shop being painted, should have that friday. Still havent done anything for the intake piping, just to busy. I ordered the glass and installation for the 13th so it will be back together then. Oh well, heres the picks of it sitting next to the 98

I went ahead and also reassembled the 460 unit pieces and the cover so it's together before the guy puts the glass in.

Glass man came and put it in while i was at school and work. Pop came home to check it out and make sure it was done right. I reassembled the C and A pillars and all the mouldings and seals that were loose. The decklid will be done on friday so that will be ready then. I pulled the console and seats, as well as the carpet because I still smelled mold pretty bad, so i pulled it all and low and behold, this is what i found.

A nice puddle on the rear floor boards, glad i caught it before any damage started. I dryed it up and left the windows cracked while it drys out all the insulation while i'm gone tommorow. I ordered a new rack and pinion for it from pepboys, so that will be here friday. Got it for about 125 with lifetime warranty, not bad. Goals for this week is carpet in, seats in with a new drivers side seat track, console and dash to be disassembled, cleaned, and reassembled, new headliner, and a new Hvac panel, as mine is faded to orange :hammer:. Also have a set of longtubes and a off road H coming hopefully by the weekend. Heres some pics

Cool, looking forward to watching this baby go back together. The black/gray is the same as all of my dad's 5.0 cars (same color scheme) so that's pretty neat. Your seats appear to be in great shape.
