These are all personal preferences. I guess I should have clarified that the 3200 cars did not have dual quads. The personalization you are talking about is called s/cing...taking a street car (427/428 engine, undercar exhaust, street gas cap, no hood scoop, no roll bar)...there were no street cars I have seen with the s/c gas cap. Only reason they were changed was when someone took a street car and made in into an s/c (most were).

I have had my Sunburst rims on for 5+ years. No issues at all. I have Goodyear tires that look awesome and fill the well nice.

When you read and research don't take everything as gospel.

Different stroked for different volks.

The engine was happy, but I felt like John Candy and Steve Martin in Planes, Trains, and Automobiles.

As promised....red wires and cap are gone....weekend project. The red coil is next on the hit list. Also, some pics of the newly ceramic coated rear underbody exhaust. I'll get a side/muffler shot today if possible. Here are some quick and dirty shots in front of the speed shot with the camera phone.

Very nice. What is a source for the "Cobra Powered by Ford" sticker on the air cleaner?

I think I got that one from Branda. I was thinking of putting the orange 427 Hi-Po on instead....not sure yet. I'll take pictures of both and take a poll ;)

Colin Comer told me that this is the correct decal but others here disputed that. I have seen the Autolite Spark Plug decal on an original street car as well. I have also seen them with no decals.

I am sure that they stuck on whatever was available and hanging around the shop. It just gets down to what a "new" owner likes and feels is correct for his car.

I have the daytona but I missed the cobra when it was affordable
your cobra looks like mine, you just need the proper gas cap . I removed my waffle maker gas cap the instant I bought my contemporary cobra

and the

hoop
scoop
pipes
and stripes
