This is 93 Cobra Clone teal in color. This car is actually a 88GT dressed up like a 93 Cobra. This is an original V8 car.  Let me start by saying this car is not in perfect shape however it is a solid car. I bought this not long ago however the wife and I have decided some of my toys have to go because I have to many. So up for auction this goes. This car is 26 years old so it can be classified as an antique. The title is clear as well. Body is teal in color with grey interior. Hatch shocks still hold hatch up in the rear.

Body- Car has cobra front bumper, grill insert, I believe a 3 inch cowl hood, cobra wing, cobra tail lights and emblems

Wheels- Cobra wheels 17x8 with run flat tires

Interior- Grey with black carpet with cobra pedals, Triple gauge pod A pillar

Drivetran- C4 auto with B&M quick silver rachet shifter, 8.8 rear end

Motor- stock 302 with 50k miles, Edelbrock 4 barrel 600 carburetor, Edelbrock lower intake, Msd coil, Ford Powered valve covers, Holly fuel pump mechanical which will support up to 600+ hp and electric fan

Exhaust- stock headers, H pipe, what I believe is Mac mufflers but not sure on that and chrome tail pipes

The car will comes with some new items on it as listed

-New Serpatine belt

-New Alternator

-New plugs

-New wires

-Newly rebuilt 8.8 rear end

-New front struts

-New upper radiator hose

Now for the bad about the car. As you can see it really does need a paint job as the passenger side is peeling off. Someone before me painted the car and didn't primer it correctly. Also the person before me had gauges in the car and removed them when I bought it and had the gas, temp and volts gauge hooked up so the gas and temp gauge doesn't work on the instrument panel and ive been driving it like that. The car has around 186k miles on the body, body is in actually good shape. Horn doesn't beep. Found a drip on a transmission line. A donor motor with 50k miles was pulled from a wreck car and placed in. Ive cleaned the carburetor out and found some debris which means its possible in the gas tank there is some kind of trash floating. Interior needs some attention as there are some stains and pieces that need to be addressed to be perfect.

Performance parts include

-Edelbrock 4 barrel 600 intake

-Edelbrock lower intake

-Msd coil

-Holley mechanical fuel pump

-H pipe

-Mac mufflers I believe but not sure

-B&M rachet quick silver shifter

-Powered by Ford Valve covers

Car is a beautiful car as is but does need some hands on TLC to be perfect. Im sure there are things that I am forgetting and ill try to update the info if theres anything else I remember. You the buyer are responsible for having the car picked up after auction ends. There is no reserve  on this auction, happy bidding! Please message me for any further questions. thanks

Ward's Automotive Ten Best Engines of 2014 dominated by diesels, turbos

Thu, 12 Dec 2013

With the Car and Driver Ten Best decided, the North American Car and Truck of the Year finalists announced and Cadillac, Ram and Subaru chalking up wins with Motor Trend, it's fair to say that the automotive awards season is in full swing. The next set of trophies to be handed out will be from Ward's Automotive, which has announced the winners of its 2014 10 Best Engines.
The latest contest was marked by the widespread emergence of diesel power and the continued success of turbocharged engines. There was even an electric motor on this year's list. In fact, only three of the ten winners were naturally aspirated and only two winners returned from last year.
"We weren't looking to throw the bums out, as they might say about an election. We were just really impressed with the flood of new powertrains," said Ward's Automotive Editor-in-Chief Drew Winter. Those new powertrains include the 83-kilowatt electric motor from the Fiat 500e, the 1.0-liter, EcoBoost three-cylinder from the Ford Fiesta and the 2.0-liter turbodiesel from the Chevrolet Cruze.

Ford forced to recall Escape over fire risk yet again

Tue, 26 Nov 2013

Recalls happen. Automakers hope they won't, but they do. And that's alright, for the most part, because cars are designed (and to a large degree still made) by humans, and humans make mistakes. So we forgive them, as long as the problem is resolved. Only in the case of the Ford Escape, the problem seems to keep coming back.
That's why Ford is calling in the Escape yet again due to fire concerns. The issue revolves around problematic fuel lines in 9,469 units manufactured between October 5, 2011, and July 11, 2012, all of which use the 1.6-liter EcoBoost inline four-cylinder engine.
As you yourself may recall, the Escape was subject to a string of recalls last year that resulted in a $17 million fine. One of them was over this very same issue, which Ford apparently didn't rectify the first time around. Let's hope this time is the last time.

Chevy Silverado frame twist test a marketing victory versus Ford

Thu, 16 Oct 2014

The pickup market is so competitive that all three major American makers are constantly trying to find a way to prove their product is the best. The new 2015 Ford F-150 is grabbing headlines at the moment by winning awards and posting segment best numbers. But in a new video, Chevrolet is taking aim squarely at the 2015 F-250 Super Duty in a battle of heavy-duty truck supremacy against the 2015 Chevy Silverado 2500HD... well, in a single metric anyway.
The big numbers from pickups often come down to payload, towing rating and fuel economy, but for this test, Chevy and Howie Long are challenging the torsional rigidity of the trucks' frames, specifically which one flexes less. Long plays the everyman here having the Chevy engineer explain what's going on in the tests. Unsurprisingly for a video on Chevy's official YouTube page, the 2500HD wins out by a good margin. The company also reports that similar results as shown here have been certified in third-party testing.
Check out the video to see the full test. While this might seem like a marketing win for Chevy, Ford isn't immune to it, either. In 2009, the Blue Oval uploaded a similar video comparing the flex under 225 pounds of weight from the bare frames of the F-150, Chevy Silverado, Dodge Ram (as it was still called at the time) and the Toyota Tundra. The results fell in the Blue Oval's favor, as you can see here.
