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

Ford F-150, Chevy Silverado, Toyota Tundra flunk IIHS headlight test

Tue, Oct 25 2016

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety put pickup truck headlights to the test and found that the majority of them were equipped with subpar units. The 2017 Honda Ridgeline was the only truck to earn a rating of "good." The large pickup truck test was comprised of the: 2016 to 2017 GMC Sierra, 2017 Nissan Titan, 2016 Ram 1500, 2016 to 2017 Chevrolet Silverado, 2016 to 2017 Ford F-150, and 2016 to 2017 Toyota Tundra. The Sierra's headlights earned a rating of "acceptable," the headlights found on the Titan and Ram 1500 were found to be "marginal," and the ones on the Silverado, F-150, and Tundra were rated as "poor." IIHS claims the F-150 was the most disappointing out of the large pickup trucks as both its halogen and optional LED headlights failed to provide adequate visibility during testing. The Ridgeline (which earned a "good rating"), is usually considered a midsize or small truck, though IIHS included it in the field of large pickups. The headlights on the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado, 2016 GMC Canyon, 2016 Nissan Frontier, and 2016 to 2017 Toyota Tacoma, which made up the small pickup truck group, all earned a rating of "poor." The IIHS claimed the Colorado had the worst headlights of any truck that was tested, as the base vehicle's units were only able to illuminate up to 123 feet in front of the car. The Ridgeline's headlights, for reference, were able to illuminate up to 358 feet in front of the vehicle. To conduct its test, the IIHS utilizes a special tool to measure how far light is projected out of the headlights in different driving situations. The trucks' headlights were tested in a straight line and in corners, while vehicles with high-beam assist were given extra praise. The headlights on the pickup trucks also mimic the testing that was done on small SUVs and cars earlier this year. Next year, automakers will need to fit their vehicles with headlights that earn a rating of either good or acceptable to earn the IIHS Top Safety Pick+. Related Video:

Hot Wheels' 2022 Green Speed cars bring EVs to small scale

Sun, Apr 24 2022

With more and more EVs hitting the market, it was only a matter of time before the new breed of cars would find representation in diecast form. For 2022, Hot Wheels is coming out with a new Green Speed series that puts the spotlight on a diverse lineup of electric cars. The five-car series features a fun mix of EVs from different manufacturers and in a wide range of styles. Some are completely bone stock. For a traditional luxury sedan, there's a Lucid Air in silver, complete with glass (or in this case, clear plastic) canopy. For fans of Teutonic 4-door "coupes" there's the Audi RS e-Tron GT in Daytona Gray. Ticking the truck box is a Hummer EV in a yellow that can only be described as a throwback to the H3. But because this is Hot Wheels, there are "hot-rodded" variants in the lineup as well. Rather than just a regular Nissan Leaf, they've elected to cast the carbon fiber-bodied NISMO RC 2.0 race car. Likewise with Ford, instead of the standard Mustang Mach-E, they've gone with the Mustang Mach-E 1400 drift car. This isn't the first time Hot Wheels has put out a Green Speed series. The line debuted in 2016 but reflected the limited EV choices in the real car market at the time. The only non-fantasy cars in the series were a first-gen Tesla Roadster, a Tesla Model S, and Chevy Volt. Hot Wheels revisited the line again in 2019, this time adding a Tesla Model 3 and a Porsche Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid Sport Turismo. Hot Wheels also makes other mini EVs that don't fall into this specific line of models. If you want to collect 'em all, there's the second-generation Tesla Roadster concept, Cybertruck, Jaguar I-Pace, Pininfarina Battista, Porsche Taycan, and a Volkswagen ID R. Similarly, Matchbox has released a version of the Tesla Roadster with sustainable packaging to boot. If you must have an old school gasoline burner, Hot Wheels has plenty of options for you too, like, say, this snazzy FJ60 Toyota Land Cruiser. The 2022 Hot Wheels Green Speed series should be on shelves at your local retailers now. Related Video:

California Man Reunited 33 Years Later With Thunderbird

Wed, Sep 3 2014

A California man was at a loss for words when he was reunited with his prized 1964 Ford Thunderbird on Tuesday, 33 years after it was stolen from a bar parking lot. Gary Chartrand could hardly believe how well his old Thunderbird held up in the last three decades. The odometer had only added about 1,000 miles from when he last saw the car back in the 1980s. "A few bumps and bruises but boy, not much changed," Chartrand told KOVR. Chartrand bought the car as a present to himself after finalizing his divorce from his wife of 10 years in 1981. It disappeared one night from the parking lot of a Sacramento bar where he was working. Police found Chartrand's car 750 miles north in Washington State. They have no leads on who might have stolen the classic car. Related Gallery Buying An Older Car: Five Things To Watch Out For
