Up for sale is my 1993 Mustang Cobra with 57,6XX miles and teal exterior with black cloth interior. Of the 5,000 Cobras made in 1993, 1,355 were teal and only 185 were teal with black cloth, making this the rarest color combination of the 1993 Cobras.

This Cobra is in outstanding condition and has been garage kept -- the excellent paint condition clearly shows this. All paint is original and all 10 VIN tags are in place. I have taken great care of this Cobra and it does not have any aesthetical problems. I can send you pictures of each VIN tag if you email me. I also have more pictures of the car I can email you.

This is a very fun car to drive and rides surprisingly well on the highway. There are no mechanical problems. The AC still blows cold. The car last passed California STAR smog in 8/2013 and it should have no problem continuing to pass smog for a long time to come.

Note: The only reason the AutoCheck score is low is because the car failed STAR inspection in 8/2013 due to excess fumes from the gas tank seal being worn out. I had the seal replaced and the car passed STAR inspection with flying colors. You will see these details when you view the AutoCheck. You may bid without concern. 

The only option this Cobra came with from the factory is the CD player (which still works). It does not have a sunroof, power seats, rear defrost, or engine block heater.

When I purchased the car, it had (and still has) the following equipment:

2.5" full exhaust, including headers, h-pipe, Dynomax mufflers, and original-look stainless tips

3.73 gears with quick shifter

Ram air and larger throttle body

Sway bar kit (front and rear)

I have added the following equipment within the past 3 years:

4x Magnaflow high-flow catalytic converters

Tokico pro system suspension (shocks and springs)

Nitto 555 tires  (still in like-new condition)

New spark plugs

New rear pinion and wheel bearings

A $1000 dollar deposit is required to hold the car for 48 hours. Cash or cashier's check is required in full to release the car and the title. I can drop the car off for shipping if needed. 

I have the original gears, the original suspension, extra floor mats, and I believe the original throttle body that I could include if you are interested. I can be reached at jcarlson4@gmail.com

Texan finds creative way to clear highway fast lane

Tue, Jun 14 2016

Few things are as infuriating as someone driving slow in the fast lane. A Jeep driver from Texas found himself in just such a predicament near Fort Worth, and came up with a creative way to urge the offending lane-blocker to get a move on. Machine, a YouTuber and off-road enthusiast from the Lone Star State, posted some dashcam footage to his account back in March which showed him stuck behind a slow driver. He was attempting to pass a slow-moving bobtail Peterbilt tractor when he got hung up by a white Ford Econoline squatting in the passing lane. On his YouTube page, Machine stated that the van, which apparently belonged to a plumbing company, was traveling along between 60 and 70 miles per hour along a stretch of highway with a stated speed limit of 70 mph. Confronted with the slow-moving van blocking the left lane, and traffic in the right lane, Machine called the number on the back of the Econoline and politely asked him to get out of the way. In the Econoline, the passenger picked up and was momentarily confused as Machine asked him to ask his driver to move out of the lane and let traffic pass. The van sped up, passed a tractor-trailer, and got out of the way, much to the relief of the traffic behind him. According to CBS news, 38 states have laws on the books to punish slow drivers squatting in the passing lane. In five of those states, the fine is upwards of $1000, and 22 states classify it as a misdemeanor.

How Ford plans to handle insurance and repair questions surrounding new aluminum-bodied F-150

Tue, 21 Jan 2014

Building a car out of aluminum has a number of benefits - the lighter weight allows the vehicle to be more agile, more fuel efficient, make better use of its power and be more resistant to dings and dents. The downside to the advanced construction, though, is that repairs are both challenging and expensive. That's troubling for the new, aluminum-bodied Ford F-150, because it's kind of made a name for itself as a rugged, durable work vehicle.
How will the legions of Ford buyers cope when it comes time to insure and repair their new trucks? Well, according to Ford, it's expecting a ten-percent jump in insurance costs for the aluminum-bodied F-150, although Ford's truck marketing manager, Doug Scott, was quick to point out that the F-150 is generally cheaper to insure than its competition from Ram and General Motors. "At the end of the day, that's sort of a wash," Scott told Automotive News at last week's Detroit Auto Show. "We've spent a lot of time and feel very comfortable that that's not going to be an inhibitor."
The other issue facing Ford is the distinct lack of body shops that have the training or equipment to repair aluminum-bodied vehicles. AN cites an estimate from the Automotive Service Association claiming that of the 30,000 independent body shops in the US, less than 10 percent are able to work on aluminum.

Ford sticking with manuals for RS models

Wed, Feb 4 2015

Traditional stick-shift gearboxes may be losing ground quickly to dual-clutch transmissions, but Ford knows what hot hatch enthusiasts want. That's why it's sticking with manual transmissions on its RS models for the foreseeable future. The Blue Oval automaker caught our attention yesterday when it revealed the new Focus RS, packing an upgraded version of the turbo four from the Mustang, a trick new all-wheel-drive system and an old-school six-speed manual. After speaking to Ford's product chief Raj Nair at the hot hatch's launch, Autocar reports that the six-speed is here to stay. "All our current research says that customers really like these kinds of cars to have a manual gearbox," Nair told the British publication. "We'll keep looking at market trends, and of course we'll give customers what they want, but for now the manual stays." Autocar further suggests that the same principle will apply to any further Rallye Sport models, so if and when a Fiesta RS rolls around, it's likely it will stick with a stick as well. Although the less potent Focus ST is offered in diesel and wagon forms overseas, wherever it's sold and in whatever form, the six-speed stays a constant in that model as well, just as it does in the smaller Fiesta ST. That doesn't mean that other Ford Performance models won't go without a clutch pedal, though. The new GT employs a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox and the new F-150 Raptor channels its muscle through a ten-speed automatic. But as far as Ford's hot hatches go, it looks like the manual will remain alive and well.
