Someone needs to dig into one of their boxes of old mags in the basement and find that issue. I've kept all of my old mags but didn't start "collecting" or "not throwing away" until the end of the 90's.

What happened to this thread? Everybody lose interest?
Dealer installed body kit and wheels? Doesn't sound like it was built by SVT. Not saying it isn't legit, just saying it would be really easy to fake because of the way Ford documents, or doesn't document, their production numbers. But, I was skeptical of the "black 93 R" as well. The black 92 GT that was used by Roush as a development mule for the 93 R. It looked the part, only it was black. It sold a few years back for some decent coin. The only thing about it is if you run the VIN it comes back as a 92 GT, not a 93 R.
All that begin said, i kinda like the idea of a 93 Cobra vert. Though I doubt it was what Coletti and crew had in mind when they designed it.
Interesting idea though, no doubt.

i guess there was nothing else to say until georgia gets home and is able to post something documenting his car. we would just be beating a dead keyboard =)
Saw the pics, and I think I'm going to have to call BS on this one too!
100% not a freaking COBRA! i dont care what phoney documents you post,. there was NO SUCH THING AS A 1992 OR 1993 COBRA VERT. PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
please stop telling people you have a cobra convertable, you are making yourself look like a horses ass.
you may fool a 13 year old girl into thinking you have a cobra vert, but not anyone who knows a little about the 93 cobra.

1992 Cobra Convertible
I am still away from home and actually out of the country right now in Canada, brrrrr. Seems the little airline i work for has no one to replace me on the road right now. As soon as I get back I will be getting and posting or somehow sharing my documentation with everyone.

yeeeeah i need to see how this plays out.....the suspense is killing me hahaha
No updates?....hmmmmmmmm!! I guess we all know the outcome of this!!!
I'm guessing he has a certificate, genuine or not, that a call to SVT would clear up pretty quickly to resolve the matter.
Still an interesting story. I'd contact the dealer it was sold from, and see if anyone working there was around and remembers the car, or better yet added the "Cobra" items.

Ok, once again I will get my documentation out there as soon as I am relieved with some time off actually at home. I work in the transportation industry, specifically a small charter airline as a Flight Mechanic. For those who know nothing about this kind of work, I spend a great deal of time "on the road" as a mechanic crewman on board the company aircraft. I travel both domestically and internationally. Sholando, don't be so quick to pass judgement just because I haven't responded to the blog in a while because you know nothing about the nature of what I do for a living. Believe me if I carried the documents with me I would have already put this to rest. Buddha, I do have the SVT Cert as well as the window price sticker and the build sheets for my car in my files at home. I even went so far as to have my wife verify them being there a few days ago. The company I work for is understaffed and me being the Senor Flight Mechanic for the company I am in a position of having to pull the extra time in the field to make up for that short coming. This is not unusually for me in my job as I have spent as much as 3 months on more than one occasion before being able to rotate home for real time off. Once I am back home I will give you guys out there a priority. I want to put this to rest as bad as any of you all for what might be completely different reasons. Those that know me, that I participate in car shows with on the few occasions that my time off allows the coincidence of mutual scheduling can vouch for my integrity.

Found this today on another forum. Not sure how true it is. But, kinda makes sense regarding this car.
After reading this. I figure that this 92 gt cobra vert is a Canadian car. :shrug::shrug:

Meh, don't sweat it. Just post back when you get the time and have the details. However it turns out, it's still an interesting story. A lot of guys get a little jumpy when they see a car like this, as most of us have been into Fox-body Mustangs for some time, and know the history of this car extensively. Heck, I've owned at least one Fox car for the last 20 years.
Now I'm just making myself sound old.........lol!Back in the 90's when these cars were new, I remember test driving a GT that had some small add-ons that looked factory installed and they tagged it with some sort of package name on the window sticker..........don't recall what they named it.
I'm more curious as to when the car was converted if the car is a 92. I would find it hard to believe they would be able to procure parts pre-production of the 93' as they would be of extremely limited quantity. It sounds as if you have enough documentation and details to research the history of the car.
It sounds like you enjoy the car, regardless of it's status.
I don't think so Brett, as he stated the original selling dealer is in the states. The Canadian Cobra is a whole other story.
I think without a doubt it's a 92' GT convertible. The only question at this point is who and when was it converted with the Cobra parts. That's my 2 cents anyway.....
Yea, but I thought I read from one of his early post that the first owner was a SVT engineer. Maybe this car never made it across the border.
:shrug: got me. Just trying to help
