I bought mine in the fall of 1994 at the get this thing before I get married age of 26. Wasn't looking specifically for a Cobra, it was what I could afford at the time. Anyone remember the price of a Plumb Crazy Hemi Challenger at the time? I like the Cobra because it is different (although there is another in the town of 1200 where I grew up) and the performance for a street car is tough to beat. Almost bought a GT40, but they were out of my price range and too hard to get quickly (my wife likes the Cobra better anyway). Took delivery June 30, 1995 and it took about a year to get it done except for paint, which it still needs. It took extra time for the custom motor mounts for the Mopar engine. Same with the headers. Put the car on a roll back and he custom fit them to the sidepipes right there in the car. Anyone know a good paint shop in the Imperial Vally or San Diego?
