    New Ride in the Driveway!

    well fellers, after much deliberation with myself I came to an agreeement and will be picking up this tomorrow! Always wanted one of these! It definitely needs some exterior work (a little hail damage, paint is peeling and faded in spots, oxidization, etc), but beyond that it is structurally and mechanically sound. Interior is awesome. Drives great. Can't wait to get my mitts into it .

    Gray cloth, no sun roof. Has a full exhaust with long tube headers, and that's really about it. Has a disconnected Monster Tach that will be the first thing yanked out of there and sold to the first punk kid with a Civic that wants it. Other than that it's almost all stock. I have to say I am happy with the find. Can't figure one can find one of these with a solid drive train for the deal I got on it. On average decent 93 Cobras go for $15K or more that I've seen...got it for a good deal, that's for sure.

    I like it! I've always had a thing for the 93' Cobras.

    Just got new headlights and the fog lights are on the way. The new headlights make a world of difference, and what a pain the ass to get swapped...no fricken room. Have to work on the driver's side today or over the weekend.

    New gift tires were put on over the weekend (Dennis, let me know when you have a sec and I'll be sure to have your rims back to you!)

    New plugs, fuel filter, oil/filter, cats (which didn't help with the emissions test worth a crap!)

    And tomorrow this thing should have an updated inspection sticker...have an appointment at the DPS...since the car was not driven much in the last few years, if it fails emissions again, as long as it passes the safety portion of the inspection, they'll give me a sticker under the low mileage exemption

    A little at a time!
