Your 1st post, welcome!.

I will confess I'm not sure what your asking? Are you a potential buyer of this car, and your looking for any info available? Or?

 

[Bob Smith]

I was the original owner of #167. I was just wondering if anyone knew its where about's now.

Someone may chime in. But for you, what was your history/time-frame of ownership? Did you private sale it or trade it and where?

Do you have the VIN? I dont know of a registry like the 93R (referencing the build number to the VIN). "the google" can be a good start with just a VIN entered, and see what turns up.

The SVT Mustang Cobra Recognition Guide 1993-2000 has all of the 93 and 95 VIN to build numbers in it.

Welcome to SVTP!

The more info you can provide on this Cobra, the better. It is still a long shot to find the current owner, but maybe you'll get lucky. I take it that's your old Cobra in your profile pic.

From you avatar it looks like it was a drag car, is that correct?

Would definitely like to hear more about it if it was!

I bought this car from Marshall Ford in Boulder Colorado on Febuary 6th 1996. #167 had 9 miles on it. I was torn between this and a Saleen SR351. I liked the R better being it was a Ford built car.

Did you drag race it a lot and was it stock? 12.90s at altitude is very respectable for a stock 95R

I beat on it from they day I bought it. Went to 3.73s and finally stuck in 4.11s. Headers and no cats with dumps. Did all of the typical 90's bolt ons. Had a 5.0 dry kit on it also. Ran 14.0s on the engine up here and a 12.70 best with the bottle.

Street raced it A lot!
