Today you are bidding on a Ford 1997 Mustang SVT Cobra 

Okay lets get right to it, if your looking for a Purdy $40,000+ New Mustang GT with all the options, (lets not forget thats before you bring it to PBH, Steeda, Roush and ring up another $10,000-$30,000) This car may or may not be for you.  No kid car here, I'm 50+ This Beast for sale here is raw, untamed, cross breed between yesterdays muscle cars and more recent road warriors. With performance upgrades that support each other, not just engine. The idle is so smooth, almost deceitful, tuned by Lund racing at Power By the Hour. If you have been looking for a weekend classic car for shows and cruise night, that needs the final steps, or have been looking for a road warrior, and you just feel the need, THE NEED FOR SPEED, and can live with a few imperfections this is your car(that's me till I got injured). Also the 1996-1998 has the hood with the nostrils, that I am a huge fan of.  This car is A BODY/PAINT man/woman Dream, cuz all she needs is cosmetic work. The asking price for what is included is low. You usually get what you pay for. However, in this case you get much more! You will instantly have the feeling of knowing exactly what your ride has, that normally comes from several months of tinkering and upgrading, and the paperwork (receipts) to back it up. Rust free body could be prepped and painted, or drive it like you stole it "AS IS"

 I am regularly complimented on the exhaust note of the Gods, even by people that say I'm not a Ford guy(recently that happened) but wow what a sound! Please email cobratt@live.com for any questions,. Youtube link, search 1997 sc cobra, You will thank yourself later. Full Specs Below:

However, the hood, top, and trunk lid are loosing the clear coat(see photos). Also, a month ago i was tapped in a 3 way turn, center lane driver went straight and nicked just behind the drivers door, very minor. The front of the car is a deep metallic purple that fades back into ghost flames. It is the least updated component of the car. It was next on the to do list. Other stand outs, the steering wheel leather wrap showing signs if age, and the driver power seat motors blow fuses ever so often due to age, not a problem if you are the only driver, fuses are cheap, and I was considering racing seats down the road. The engine bay could use some spit and polish. However that's about it for the to do list. Items listed as new are the most recent features, all others not to far behind. Receipts available and will go to the buyer.
Lets not forget the basics, before all the power adders. Ford ice cold A.C. that was also recently updated, and every other accessory that comes with a Cobra. Everything works. Interior great condition, no rips, cracks or problems. Oh yeah those are Cobra Golf Club Head Covers, to cover the floor ends of  Roll bar when not in use, as to not catch the bottom of your jeans. Mileage is not an issue with all the updates, Also non smoker owners always, and I am the 3rd owner. So much for those other ads that say too much to list, never understood that.

Good Luck and thx for looking, I also have shipping out of state available of needed

The fascinating forgotten civil defense history of Mister Softee trucks

Mon, 26 Aug 2013

Hemmings came across an interesting article from the Throwin' Wrenches blog about the intersection of ice cream, cars and civic duty in America's late 1950s. In particular, it focuses on the Mister Softee trucks, which criss-crossed neighborhoods of the eastern US serving ice cream. Looking past the ultra-durable vehicles used - heavy-duty Ford-based chassis, for what it's worth - the article delves into some deeper national-security territory.
See, Mister Softee truck owners were voluntary members of the Civil Defense, thanks to all the useful stuff (potable water, generators, freezers and fridges) that the machines carried with them for serving ice cream. Click over to Throwin' Wrenches for the full run down of how Mister Softee would have stepped in to help fight if the Cold War ever turned a little hotter.

Forza Motorsport 6's new drivable Hot Wheels cars are the best

Tue, May 3 2016

Each month, Turn 10 Studios releases a new car pack for the latest installment of its Forza Motorsport video game. Sometimes that means less-than-exciting stuff coming to our Xbox Ones – BMW X6M, bleh – but this time our inner seven-year-old is beyond ecstatic. Two of the seven cars are based on actual Hot Wheels models. And. They're. Awesome. First we have the 2011 Hot Wheels Bone Shaker. Yes, there are flames on the side. And yes, there's a giant skull where the grille should be. This one came from the imagination of "Mr. Hot Wheels" Larry Wood, whose design was so popular it inspired an actual real-world creation. Like all good things in this world, it's powered by a small-block Chevy V8. Oh, and it has no roof. This will be a popular one among gamers. The other digitized Hot Wheels creation is a 2005 Ford Mustang. A modest vehicle, sure, but the toy designers have festooned this pony car with a wild paint scheme and the body mods to emphasize it. Originally developed to celebrate the 'Stang's 50th birthday, this Hot Wheels car trades Americana for wild Japanese style. There's just one functioning life-size version of this car in existence as well, but if you look hard, you might be able to find one of the 1:64 scale models that inspired it. Other highlights from this month's car pack include the latest Ford Focus RS – finally time to replace that NASCAR-V8-powered, all-wheel-drive 2009 Focus RS – the 2015 McLaren P1 GTR, the 2016 Chevrolet Camaro SS, the aforementioned X6M, and Alain Prost's 1990 Ferrari 641 F1 car. The Hot Wheels Car Pack is available for download today.

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax

Thu, 24 Jul 2014



The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
