For your consideration is my 96 Mystic Cobra. I am the second owner as far as I know and I purchased it in 2002. I only drive it about 500 miles a year now, so it's time for another toy. The car is in great shape to be 17 years old and 51,500 miles. It has numerous mods, and is a blast to drive, as well as smoke most every new car that tries you, including the new 2014 Cobra. I have installed 2003-04 Cobra seats with the hard to find Black suede inserts, 04 pedals, and shift knob (for a 5-speed). Also it has new carpet, and a new rug in the trunk. The supercharger was rebuilt less than 500 miles ago at Vortech due to a leaking seal, and I had them replace all bearings and do an overhaul since I had it out. You are welcome to the receipt for that work. I also have the certificates from Ford listing the Cobra build number as well as the Mystic build number. The engine has never had work done, never even had the valve covers off, and is stock to the throttle body. I did change the mass air and fuel injectors to supplement the blower. The heat blows hot and the AC blows cold, all windows work, and door locks. The exterior was repainted before I bought the car, the story being that the previous owners son had went into a field through a barbed wire fence and the wire scratched car over the hood and roof. The lower radiator support is bent a little from this I suspect, because it has never been wrecked while I have owned it, and all body panels have the original VIN stickers from the factory. The car has some scratches on the front valence from dragging into a parking lot, and a 4 inch scratch on rear valence from I have no idea. Also, the side skirts have some wear from people getting in and out, and there is a dime sized door ding on drivers door above handle. One of the wheels is dinged about 6 inches on the outer rim. Those things plus some rock chips are the only cosmetic imperfections. The other bad is the check engine light is on, and I believe it to be an oxygen sensor, nothing serious, maybe a 30 dollar repair. I will try to fix before auction closes, or it could just be due to the cats being removed. Doesn't affect performance either way. The car is tuned with an SCT flip chip, meaning it has a setting for passing emissions testing if you are in one of those areas, or the performance version for a few more horses with the cats off. The car dyno'd at 477 RWHP at Mustang Muscle in St. Louis in 2010. I will also consider trading for a Harley Davidson V-Rod, or old hot rod from the 60's or truck from the 40-50's. No overseas buyers please, no one with less than 5 feedback, and if you have a check it must clear my bank before car exchanges hands. No warranty written or implied, car as is where is. Thank you for looking, and have a great day.

2015 Gordon McCall's Motorworks Revival
Thu, Aug 13 2015Considered the big kick off of the major festivities surrounding Monterey Car Week, this year's Gordon McCall's Motorworks Revival certainly didn't disappoint. For those unable to make it to the California coast, our own Drew Phillips was on hand to snap some of the beautiful vehicles on display for this gorgeous gallery. Held annually at the Monterey Jet Center, the event is always a feast for the eyes by collecting planes, a gang of exotic supercars, and some the top cars crossing the auction block over the coming days, like a Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda convertible. The Ford GT both new and old was a major attendee at this year's party. Among them, the Petersen Museum brought along an original racecar and a GT40 MKIII to promote an upcoming exhibit. The classics were complimented by the latest version that has continued to keep tongues wagging. The GT wasn't the only classic with a modern update there. Singer used the posh event for the North American debut of its stunning restoration of the Porsche 911 Targa. Shelby American was also at the revival for the public unveiling of the 50th Anniversary Daytona Coupe. On the more modern front, Honda was in attendance with the future NSX and one of the McLaren F1 cars that the company's engine powers. For further proof of the ritzy folks that attend this soiree, Pagani and Koenigsegg both had stands to show off their extremely quick wares.

Mustang pinball game will feature art by Ford GT designer
Fri, 13 Dec 2013To celebrate 50 years of Mustang, Ford and Stern Pinball are collaborating on a new pinball machine that will feature the muscle car in all its glory, Polygon reports. Even better, Camilo Pardo, the guy who designed the Ford GT, will provide art for the table; Tanner Foust, Top Gear USA host and professional driver, will handle narrating duties; and a Sony Music soundtrack spanning five decades will provide the tunes.
"The Mustang is one of the most iconic, American cars ever made... What better way to celebrate 50 years of Mustang than with the launch of the Ford Mustang pinball game?" says Stern Pinball CEO Gary Stern.
Watch the promotional trailer for the upcoming Mustang pinball machine below, which will have to hold you over until pricing and availability are announced in early 2014.
