Mustang guys take alook
http://www.autotrader.com:80/fyc/vdp...r_id=262828166
Opinions on this car & price?I am not that familiar with them. |
Cobrabill: Check NADA for a fair value. They use them at classic car auctions so I trust their evaluations. They are on line as well. I have a 96 SVT with 27k miles and NADA says it is worth what they are asking for the 95 However, I would not sell mine for that.
Great cars though, good luck,Byron |
That is a little pricey for a FFR donor car.
|
not worth the price, IMO
|
Since when is a Cobra SVT a donor car?
|
I wouldn't make it a donor but it would a lot cheaper to race than a cobra (I have twice that much in my engine).

Last year of the 5.0 96 has the 4.6 Mod motor so some value it a bit more. For a daily driver it looks to be a decent deal. If you are looking to strip it down and modify it for a track car, there are others out there that would be cheaper. If you are planning on changing out the engine, all the Mustang guys I know say they wish they had just gotten a V6 because they end up changing everything else out anyway.

Wasn't 95 the only year the Cobra was available with the 351W motor?
|
1995 Cobra R only had the 351W

The Mustang the OP posted is too much money. Regular '94/'95 Mustangs do not hold their value well... and that one is too much money.
John's 95R, however, is a GREAT deal! |
That car would easily bring asking price over here on the east coast. Good cars are getting scarce around here.

Seller's Description and Comments
"One owner, Non-smoker, Well maintained, All scheduled maintenance, Always garaged, Custom wheels, No accidents, Very clean interior, COBRA MODIFICATONS: PRO M 77 MIL. MASS AIR METER BBK 70 MIL. THROTTLE BODY UPPER MANIFOLD PORT MATCH TO LOWER LOWER MANIFOLD RACE PORTED AND POLISHED HEADS RACE PORTED AND POLISHED, 3 ANGLE VALVE JOB, SHAVE POINT .030 - 1 5/8 SHORTY HEADERS - 2 1/2 OFF ROAD H-PIPE 3/55 RING AND PINION STEEDA SHIFTER BUSHINGS KING COBRA CLUTH KIT" Could be 87K very hard miles. I would at the least check out the engine real well for compression/leak down. Get a scope camera and look inside the cylinders. Or at the least be prepaired for a rebuild sooner than later. Terry |
The 94/95 SVT Cobras are real dogs- the magazine tests had them running a few tenths slower than the 94/95 GTs because of weight, despite their intake mods. The standard SVT Cobras DO NOT come with a 351W, just a very mildly modded 302.
I owned a 94 GT way back in the day (part of the origin of my screen name, which stuck). They're fun cars to mod and easy to work on, but if I were looking to track one, I'd buy a 90-93 LX 5.0 or 93 Cobra (now these are getting pricey). They're at least 5/10 quicker in the 1/4, and feel much lighter on their feet in the turns. I modded my 94- it kept up with a late 90's Z28 on the highway (quick back then!), but it handled like a pig, and the butt-rise during braking was the stuff of neighborhood legends. The earlier body handles much better. The old GTs and Cobras had a 4-link in the rear with no panhard bar- at a minimum you'll need the bar to get rid of the rear end tail-wag. If you must get a 94-95, start with the GT. They also look much nicer with the side skirts removed. -Dave |
