    95 R - X-pipe options

    Thanks, was wondering if the exhaust is the same fitment as a 5.0 GT Coupe. While I know the headers are different, I am hoping for ease of choice, its the same.

    95 R - X-pipe options

    A few years back I put an X-pipe on my 94 Pace Car and it makes the car sound like it should have done from the factory. I want to do the same to the 95R. As I am in the UK, I dont want to gamble with a part that may be a poor fit. For those of you who have fitted one, which did you choose. I...

    95R Fibreglass hood issue

    I attended the Ford UK 60th Birthday event yesterday, and its the first time the 95R has been on the road for 4 years, and despite washing it twice, I spotted an issue when I got back with the fibreglass hood that cleaning products are not having any impact. It's hard to actually take a good...

    95 Cobra R Fuel Tank issues - Built wrong ?

    My car is finally in the workshop getting the fuel tank replaced and my mechanic has found a major issue. None of the holes to accommodate the sender or pump are correct. All the holes on the top are oversized and not tapped. The fuel filler holes on the side of the tank are correct. The sender...

    So who got my Fuel Tank ?

    It's effectively the same thing. If you want to import a non-EU built car, like a Ford Mustang, you have to pay Import Duty of 10% and then VAT (Sales Tax) of 20%.

    So who got my Fuel Tank ?

    Tank picked up Tuesday and on my doorstep Friday. Cost was £140 to ship (inc Ins) and Import Duty of £168, next steps are to powder coat it and fit it in Feb 2020.

    So who got my Fuel Tank ?

    Good news is Glenn has another one ready for me on Friday. So not to work out shipping to the UK. UPS want $700, Fedex want about $300, and through a Parcel broker, I think I can get Fedex to do it for about $150.

    So who got my Fuel Tank ?

    I finally got to speak to Glenn again last night, he is such a nice guy to speak to on the phone. My tank had been ready for a long time, he had been waiting for me to call him. I was just about to arrange shipping from the UK to pick up from the US as it appears to be cheaper to do this, and I...

    95 Cobra R - Fuel Leak - UK

    Thanks Jeremy, I suspected as much, and Glenn did say he had to squeeze in an order to the fabrication shop, which I kind of got the impression was somewhere else. Getting hold of Glenn took about 4 phone calls, so i will try again next week. Shipping is likely to take 10 days, and then I need...

    95 Cobra R - Fuel Leak - UK

    Just an update , ordered and paid for the replacement tank Oct 14. Glenn indicated it may be a few weeks to build it etc. 6 weeks later, I have asked via email and phone call about the status. Perhaps Thanksgiving is slowing the response.

    1995 R fuel cell option #2

    My plans are going a bit off. Cannot drain the fuel, and the smell of fuel in the house is getting worse, so I need to do something urgently. Also, not able to get through to Glenn due to the timezone difference, have left him messages at 9am, 10am, 11am, he must think I am crazy. I had...
