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

BMW to follow Honda back into F1?

Mon, 14 Apr 2014

The economic downturn wrought devastating effects on motor racing. Formula One alone lost half its engine suppliers when Honda left at the end of the 2008 season, and both BMW and Toyota followed at the end of 2009. But things are looking up again. Cosworth may have dropped out this season, reducing the engine suppliers to three: Ferrari, Renault and Mercedes, the latter of which admits that it may have left had the engine formula not changed. But Mercedes has stayed and is dominating the championship. Honda is coming back next season. And word around the paddock is it may not be the only one.
According to Giancarlo Minardi - founder of the team now known as Scuderia Toro Rosso - BMW engineers have been conspicuously spotted lately at F1 test sessions and grands prix, lending to speculation that the new engine regulations may entice the Bavarian automaker back into the series. According to Minardi, BMW's marketing division is pushing for the automaker's return to F1, with the board slated to make a decision in May. BMW would be more likely to consider an engine-supply deal rather than taking a team over like it had with Sauber, but with which team or teams it might collaborate remains a big question mark at this point.
As if that's not enough, Ford is said to be considering taking over Cosworth's aborted V6 turbo engine program to take both outfits back into the sport as well. Cosworth supplied F1 engines under the Ford banner for years, but returned under its own name for four seasons from 2010 through 2013 before shuttering its program to develop an engine to meet the new regulations adopted this season.

J Mays' legacy

Fri, 15 Nov 2013

Mays is by far not the first designer to use heritage design cues in his work.
The announcement that J Mays will be leaving his chief creative officer role at Ford Motor Company on January 1 ends a 13-year run in one of the industry's top design roles. While best known for having a hand in reborn classics like the Volkswagen New Beetle, Ford Mustang and Thunderbird (above), Mays' legacy is more complicated and nuanced than being considered the father of what is known as "retrofuturism".

Ford, Ram in heavy-duty towing spat

Mon, 28 Jul 2014

Every pickup truck commercial has the brand trying to convince us that its model is the biggest, brawniest vehicle on the block. But Ford and Ram appear ready to really throw down the gauntlet and scrap over the towing figures for their heavy-duty models, and it could potentially end up in court.
The issue revolves around what it means to be best in class. Ford claims that its 2015 F-450 (pictured above) has a max tow rating of 31,200 pounds, compared to 30,000 pounds for the Ram 3500 (right). However, both companies market these heavy haulers as having the top towing in their class. According to Automotive News, Ford is threatening legal action if Ram doesn't back down.
The situation isn't as simple as just comparing the numbers, though. First, the two companies calculate their towing capacities differently. Ram adheres to the SAE J2807 rating, while Ford uses its own internal system. Although, as the company introduces new models, they are certified using the SAE standard. "When an all-new F-Series Super Duty is introduced, it also will use SAE J2807," said Ford to Autoblog in an emailed statement.
