Hey Jeff, nice Cobra! I live in Waterford, and am interested in checking it out. If it is still available, give me a call or text at 248-508-0277.
Thanks!

Great looking car, the steering wheel looks great imo.
Cars worth the money, OP! GLWS!

I'd be interested if you would take my 94 cobra towards it and cash lol. I bought the cobra to put a 331 in and do some cosmetics after the engine build. I also have a 95 saleen/GT that I'm going to put a 351 (400) in and lastly the Terminator. I lately started thinking to just sell the 94 maybe and get a Termi and still build the Saleen.

Full disclosure....I went and saw the car in person. Jeff is a great guy, and very knowledgeable. The car is in great shape mechanically. You can tell he really took care of it.
But, it was in an accident, which resulted in the bumper cover, fender, headlight, and hood being replaced. The repair was done by a reputable Ford shop, and it is hard to tell anything has been replaced. It is a clean title. I think he said it was back in 2011.
Just passing it on before someone makes a long trip, especially if they want a vehicle with zero accident history....

Was this your reason for not purchasing the vehicle? Did you ask about accident history prior to going and seeing the vehicle? Did you find issues with the repairs?
Jeff and I have traded many PM’s and emails about this vehicle. When I asked about accident history (I just looked back and checked) he was incredibly forthcoming about the repair work that had been performed on the vehicle.

Yes, that is why I am not purchasing the vehicle. And no, I did not ask him prior to seeing it. I am local to him in metro Detroit, so it was close for me. Like I said in the post, I do not see any issues with the repairs, just very slight paint differences, and wear on the headlights.
I did not claim he wasn’t forthcoming, just saving people time if they are looking for a no-accident Cobra.

Is the accident on Carfax?

Accident was in 2013 and it will show in a carfax, fixed at Jack demmer ford here in Michigan. 5 mph parking lot accident on the front right corner that warranted a passenger fender, hood, headlight, and front bumper cover.
Frankly it's my decision on how I chose to disclose the information but I guess that isn't an option anymore. I would have preferred to let people contact me for information and the car and then disclose with repair paperwork to avoid discouraging interested buyers.
Believe me I wish every day that it didn't happen but shit does. I've never had an issue with the car, alignment is perfect, every suspension point is right where it should be. As far as I'm concerned it's a pristine condition car with fresh paint on the front clip.

damn I wish you'd take a trade and cash lol. I actually might think about trading both cars and cash
bump for a clean car with good miles, hell 60 percent of the cars on the road have been in an accident at some time in their life. Its not like the airbags were blown or it was a total loss. If I was in a better situation than I am now was just in the hospital from last thursday to this last wednesday, and got told at 39 I have copd have to wear oxygen 20 hours a day and give myself breathing treatments every 4 hours . Plus I have to take steriods to try and make my lungs work right I have never smoked drank some when my wife and I were in our early 20's. When I walked in the hospital the doctors said I was blue and when they checked my blood gasses the carbon monoxide in my blood was like running a garden hose from the exhaust on a car to inside the car, and after 4 breathing treatments and being on oxygen for a day the carbon monoxide dropped by like 2 percent I started out at 79 percent and the normal is 25-35 percent they had no clue how I was awake. Anyway someone is going to get a prefect car that has all the flash it needs. I would buy it and park it by my sonic blue car then I just need a white one and an orange.
shoot me a text then i'll call ya....... eight fo 3 eight 1 oh 1 six fife one
lol my bad was thinking you were the OP hehee
