Project BnB with pics
I picked a couple of unfinished project cobras from a local shop. One was a completed car, never titled , then they pulled the motor and pushed it outside in the elements for 2 years, thats where I stepped in.

We stripped it down , very bad paint job, to the bare fibreglass and started over.

Proceeded to paint it screaming yellow to match my Mustang

I used the 5/8 narrowed front control arms , a 98 cobra rear end with 4.10 gears in it. I just picked up a 2011 5.0 Coyote motor with 3800 miles on it. Im currently upgrading the internals to the Boss 302 crank, rods , pistons , bearing and rings.

Beautiful car (cars). I could have sworn that was my blue cobra without numbers. But, I looked in the garage and it was still there. :)
Are you going to make your own headers for the 4.6 or are you going to ask Barry McGill to do it for you? Good luck and if you get it finished in time for Run N Gun (October 19-21) bring it out to the track or meet us in the pits if you are not keen on tracking your car. Clois Harlan |
