My name is Josh and I just picked up this 1994 Cobra from my Step-dad and Mom. My Step-Dad had bought it for my mother late 2011, but she never really drove it, so basically it's been sitting for 2 years now.
Now don't get confused by the whole Step-Dad/Mom thing. I'm 26, have a job and -relatively- have my own place. Basically, lost my 2010 Mazdaspeed3 and needed a car, and my Mom said "Hey, we have this, and we don't use it."
Prior to this I've owned:
1991 Honda CRX HF
1990 Honda CRX Si
1997 Acura Integra GS
2000 Acura Integra GSR
1988 Mitsubishi Starion (Which was called anything from a Supra to a Foxbody by random people.)
2010 Mazda Mazdaspeed3
Onto the car:
-1994 Mustang SVT Cobra 5-Speed
-98975 Mi. Of course this is based on approximation and notations, since the Odo's been broken since 74531. Basically the place they bought it from gave a binder of noted distances and approximate mileages, so the car was titled in my Step-Dads name at 98025. Since my mother never drove it but 3-4 months to/from work at the time and then parked it, I approximated 98975 on the title when I registered it. I'm in the process of purchasing a new odo gear to rectify the issue. Is this a common problem?
-Performance White in actually pretty damn good condition considering the car hasn't been repainted. only two blemishes on the whole car and they are both on the roof.
-Side-Exit Exhaust Option w/ Sideskirts. Which I need to replace the side-pipes, they've rotted away. Anyone know of, or are selling side-exits?
-Mach 460 Stereo Option with a non-working Vol Down button. Why turn down when you can turn up?
-Brand new Rotors, Ceramic Pads, Complete Fluids flush and change, plugs, wires, K&N Air Filter, Bilstein Shocks, pretty much nothing maintenance-wise needs to be done at all except the exhaust, which I'll probably have to have made at a shop as I can't really find any affordable side-exit options. I'd like to keep it side-exit.
Now for pictures:
Thanks guys, and would love to hear your recommendations and comments!
