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.

Petersen Museum celebrates 50 years of Ford Mustang with special exhibit

Mon, May 5 2014

If you're a pony-car enthusiast, this is your year. Not only has Ford introduced an all-new Mustang, but it's also the 50th anniversary of the original. Celebrations and commemorations have been scheduled throughout the year, and not the least of them is the latest exhibit at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles. Called "Mustangs Forever: 50 Years of a Legend", the exhibit includes Mustangs from every generation of the iconic pony car, including the 1965 convertible Ronald Reagan drove during his California gubernatorial campaign, a 1971 Mach 1 Cobra Jet, a 1974 Mustang II, 1993 SVT Cobra, 2000 Cobra R and a 2006 Shelby GT-H. Special sections focus on motorsports, aftermarket modifiers and limited-edition models. The display opened on Sunday with the Mustang Madness spectacular and will run for the next six months, but if you're not heading to Southern California within the coming half-year then you can scope out all the action in our live gallery of photos above.

Here are the best-selling cars and trucks from January 2015

Fri, Feb 6 2015

Every month, Autoblog slogs through all the sales figures reported by automakers that do business in the United States, and, after a little bit of sorting, we put it into an easy-to-read chart in an attempt to make it as easy as possible to follow the ins and outs of sales and shipments. But that only covers the brands themselves, not the individual models they sell. And we think you'd all be interested in knowing which vehicles beat their rivals in sales from month to month, so we've put together this handy gallery to keep you in the know. While the leader of the pack may not come as much of a surprise, the order that the top ten finishes in changes frequently – due to automaker deals, the price of gas, etc. – and we've included some statistics to help you see how their current performance stacks up to month's past.

PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]

Wed, 19 Jun 2013

PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
