VIDEO PRESENTATION BELOW
This car was Fords creation meant to blow the doors off the
competition. The Cobra, which in 1994 displayed a more powerful V8, was now
able to go toe-to-toe with the Pontiac Formula/Trans AM as well as the Chevy
Z28 Camaro. Texas Classic Cars of Dallas is proud to present this 1996 Ford Mustang Cobra
Around 10,000 units were produced this year, and the price tag was a little high compared to competitors. However, the Cobra did not fail to please most car enthusiasts that were searching for an adrenalin rush .
The exterior also saw some new modification not previously
seen on other year models.
The taillights were vertically themed, which was added to all mustangs that year, and paid homage to those of the original Mustang, with three quasi-vertical elements.
The black finish is good condition, it is showing some stone chips on the front, however, that is because the car is completely original and being sold by the original owner.
The special racing wheels and rear spoiler assure you that the car was going to do everything it could to drive all that power to the ground.
The interior is as cozy as could be for
a sports car back in that time.
The seats show a some wear, but have no tears.
The mileage on the odometer shows on the Auto Check report to be actual. The car scores way above average for car this model Mustang. We have the report avaiable for those who would like to see it.
All the luxuries are present; AC, power windows/steering, AM/FM radio and even cruise control all allow for easy driving habits.
But, the 5-speed allowed you to cut loose and go crazy whenever you felt necessary.
Whether looking for your first vehicle, or to catch a piece of Ford’s Cobra history, look no further.
Ford was at the time known for its beefy 5.0L V8 engine to
power the ponies in their stable, but this 1996 was the second year in which is
was given the factory 4.6L 32-valve V8 engine which produced an astonishing
305HP.
Plenty of power to smoke the tires whenever you felt the need. Also, roared a big enough rumble to turn heads from a distance away. Then, you are able to feel every ounce of power due to the factory Borg Warner T-45 5-speed transmission. Meaning you could speed shift your way all down the strip/street.
The car has been mechanically maintained and runs great.
The undercarriage is in excellent condition throughout.

The second-generation Ford Transit Connect is almost upon us, and to get work- and family-oriented customers ready for the new model, Ford has launched a configurator for both van and wagon versions. Both body styles will go on sale early next year with the base TC Van starting at $22,000, but customers wanting side windows and rear seats will have to pony up at least an extra $3,000 for the TC Wagon. Ford is definitely looking to get back into the family van business with the 2014 TC Wagon offering three available trim levels, two engines and the choice between five- and seven-passenger seating (with two wheelbases). Like many recent Ford products, a fancy Titanium trim level is offered, and opting for it will cost you - this trim starts at $29,000, and we were able to spec it out with a panoramic roof, tow package and front and rear parking sensors for a little over $33,000. Businesses looking for a small, fuel-efficient work vehicle now get more options on the TC Van like the choice of split, hinged rear doors or a liftgate (with or without glass), a long wheelbase ($1,000) and Ford's CrewChief vehicle tracking system ($925). Fully loaded, this van is still costs less than the fullsize E-Series. On both Van and Wagon, the 1.6-liter EcoBoost engine is a $795 option, but it is only offered on short-wheelbase models and Ford has yet to release power or fuel economy specs yet. With the standard 2.5-liter engine, the TC will get up to 21 miles per gallon in the city and 29 mpg on the highway.
Ford took in $2.6 billion in pre-tax profits in the third quarter of the year, making for a record trio of months that saw the Blue Oval's year-over-year earnings increase by $426 million. The earnings are being attributed not just to improvements in North American sales, but sales around the globe. Revenue was up 12 percent, to $36 billion, although net income took a hit, dropping $359 million to $1.3 billion. Ford was dinged with $498 million in pre-tax charges, which are being blamed for the drop in net income. The news has boosted Ford's hopes for full-year results, bumping it's total profits up past $8 billion, according to Automotive News. The Dearborn, MI-based manufacturer is still expecting a loss in Europe, although it's forecasted less than the $1.73 billion it burned in 2012. In fact, according to CFO Bob Shanks, Ford's European losses dropped by 51 percent year-over year, a huge improvement for the brand.
As leaders for the United Auto Workers gather in Detroit for their Special Convention on Collective Bargaining to work out the negotiating stance for this year's new labor agreements with the Detroit 3 automakers, what they most want to do is figure out how to eliminate the two-tier wage scale. However, the lower Tier 2 wage has allowed the domestic automakers to reduce their labor costs, hire more workers, and compete better with their import competition. As it stands, per-hour labor rates including benefits are $58 at General Motors, $57 at Ford, and $48 at Fiat-Chrysler – a reflection of FCA's much greater number of Tier 2 workers. The Center for Automotive Research released a study of labor rates (including benefits) that put numbers to what the imports pay: Mercedes-Benz pays the most, at an average of $65 per hour, Volkswagen pays the least, at $38 per hour, and BMW is just a hair above that at $39 per hour. Among the Detroit competitors, Honda workers earn an average of $49 per hour, at Toyota it's $48 per hour, Nissan is $42 per hour, and Hyundai-Kia pays $41 per hour. The lower import wages are aided by their greater use of temporary workers compared to the domestics. Automotive News says the ten-dollar gap between those foreign camakers and the domestics turns out to about an extra $250 per car in labor, which adds up quickly when you're pumping out many millions of cars. That $250-per-car number is one that, come negotiating time, the Detroit 3 will want to reduce, as the UAW is trying to raise both Tier 1 and Tier 2 wages. Another wrinkle is that the domestic carmakers are considering the wide adoption of a third wage level lower than Tier 2. Some workers who do minor tasks like assembling parts trays kits and battery packs already make less than Tier 2, but the UAW will be quite wary about cementing yet another wage scale at the bottom of the system while it's trying to fight a bigger battle at the top.
