1998 98 Ford Svt Cobra Complete. Runs & Drives. Front Hit. Salvage Title on 2040-cars
North Port, Florida, United States
|
Sadly, I am selling my beloved 1998 Cobra to which I am the second owner. On March 7, I was hit across the front end by someone pulling across three lanes of traffic to get into a parking lot. Both airbags deployed, and the car was declared a total loss by the other party's insurance company, despite my desire to keep it under 80%. The main reason was they did not understand the scarcity of these cars, and rated it as a standard Mustang or GT, no matter how much I tried to educate them. My car has California Emissions with black leather interior, and there were only 8 of them made for this model year. The car has an intake, exhaust, upgraded suspension, Eibach lowering kits, and drilled rotors for the brakes. Transmission and differential fluids were just changed less than 6 months ago, as was the fuel pump.
The bad is obvious... Dual airbag deployment, and front end damage. Currently the airbag light is on (Obviously), and it will turn off when the code is reset. The good is obvious as well. 77,066 original second owner mileage. Car runs and drives with no engine leaks at all since the radiator was not even punctured. Interior is in excellent condition (aside from dog hair). The car can be rebuilt and put back on the road if someone wants to take the time for this project. You will need to convert it to a rebuilt title. If I had the time and patience, and was not overseas on TDY all the time, I would repair it and continue to drive it because I love the car so much. I constantly get close to 400 miles out of a tank on the highway, and close to 275 in the city. I have new pair of single piece, wraparound crystal headlights for the car, as well as the headlights brace assembly for the car that I bought in anticipation of rebuilding my car. I have them available if anyone is interested, and they are all NIB. I also have a brand new OEM SVT wheel that is NIB at my house as well. Those are all available for the project if you would like to work out something on them so I do not have to list them on Ebay to sell. The car comes as is, where is. And you will need to make arrangements to pick the car up and ship the car from North Port, FL. The car will come with a Florida Salvage Title, and was last titled in Texas with me, and California before with the first owner. Please send any questions you have about the car BEFORE bidding. |

Was the C7 Corvette cut from Beyonce's Super Bowl halftime show?
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Someone was bound to receive a free 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray during the Super Bowl XLVII festivities; it just wasn't who we thought it was going to be. Despite a report back in December that superstar Beyoncé Knowles would be getting an all-new Corvette during her halftime performance, that turned out not to be the case. Joe Flacco, starting quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, did in fact win a Corvette for his MVP performance.
So what transpired that prevented Beyoncé from rolling on stage in the new Chevrolet? Anyone who knows isn't telling, but according to Yahoo! Autos, General Motors said that for one reason or another a deal "did not work out," and it appears to have been an eleventh-hour change. Regardless of who's to blame or what prevented this from happening, we're sure Chevy has had no problems getting attention for the C7 Corvette since it was introduced last month.
Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner
Sat, 24 Aug 2013For nine years, Diesel Power magazine has run the Diesel Power Challenge, this year's grindfest being "a week-long torture test that features seven events, nine trucks, 8,000 horsepower, and nearly 15,000 pound-feet of torque." The road to being crowned "the most powerful truck" starts with a dyno run, and then continues through the completion of a CDL-style obstacle course, an eighth-of-a-mile drag race while towing a 10,000-pound trailer, a quarter-mile drag race without a trailer, a fuel economy test in the mountains and finally a sled-pulling test through a 300-foot-long packed-mud pit.
What kind of trucks get into such a fight? Last year's winner, for instance - who upgraded his truck this year to prove he didn't "luck into the win" - drives a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 upgraded with a custom intake, Elite Diesel triple turbos and a two-stage nitrous system. Another competitor has a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins inline-six, upgraded with Garrett turbos, dual-stage nitrous, a seven-inch exhaust stack and twin fans built into the bed to cool the Sun Coast Omega transmission. The numbers on that truck: 1,255 horsepower, and 2,063 pound-feet of torque at the wheels. Naturally, as the image above might suggest, things don't always end well.
You'll find all five videos covering this years challenge below. A scene in the dyno video sums it all up perfectly: a competitor leaves his nitrous on too long and the crew is treated to some ominous poppings, he leans out the window, throws both hands up and shouts, "Amer'ca!"
Chevy exec confirms SS production model reveal at Daytona on Feb 16
Wed, 06 Feb 2013The 2014 Chevrolet SS will make its racing debut for the 2013 Daytona 500, but the production version of the car will get its official unveiling on February 16 in Daytona, a week before The Great American Race. According to a report by Automotive News, the reveal has been confirmed by Jim Campbell, Chevy's US vice president of performance and motorsports. With the departure of the Dodge Charger, the new Chevrolet racecar will be the only competitor to feature a V8, rear-wheel-drive layout in both street and NASCAR form.
NASCAR fans will be able to see the new fullsize performance-oriented sedan on display in the festivities leading up to the Daytona 500, but the car won't go on sale until later in the year. The Australian-built Chevy SS will be a low-volume performance model, and it will be priced above the 2014 Impala, which starts at $27,535.
