[QUOTE="Bleedsblue, post: 9900507, member: 152103"] I found his ad for this car from last year. The guy I am dealing with had some details wrong but had most of it right. He did pull the stereo system out. I love this sight. No Cobra is safe! I am pm'ing the orig owner after this post. One thing I noticed is that it has a stock crank. Are they any good? Original Ad: 1996 Cobra Black/Saddle Built Motor/Trans D1SC 536/465 Up for sale is my 1996 mustang cobra. Black exterior and saddle interior. I replaced the motor at 42k because of what I thought was a blown motor. Turns out it was the rear crank key that broke causing a knocking sound. I had the motor pulled and disassembled already so I figured Id go all out with the internals. There are no know issues with the car mechanically, it starts every time and is smooth driving through the RPM’s. I had the car recently detailed by “mixer” and had a dent wizards guy pull all the dents from the car.. Paint Correction thread: Cobra paint correction The only noticeable blemish is the driver side corner of the rear bumper from the previous owner, looks like a parking lot style damage. I plan on having the rear bumper repainted this summer. It was in a very minor low speed accident that required replacing of the passenger side headlight & corner light. The ford dealer sprayed the whole front end with the exception of the drivers side fender. (I have detailed pictures before and after) The car made 536/465 @ 14psi on a mustang dyno in 95 degree heat. It was tuned by Jon Lund of Lund racing at Evolution Motorsports. The motor and Drivetrain are built for boost, with an overdrive pulley (included but not installed) you would see around 18psi and over 600 to the wheels. I change the oil religiously (8qts) and the motor had a proper break in. Break in oil was Shell Rotella T SAE 30 changed, at first full operating temp, 500 miles, 1500miles, 3k miles and then I switched to mobile 1 5w20 and changed every 3.5k miles. The supercharger oil is changed every 2 oil changes (self contained not hardlined to the oil pan). The interior shows minor wear on the drivers seat (as most of these cars do). The passenger seat is near perfect as is the rest of the interior. I have a rear seat delete installed and have the original rear seats stored in plastic bags. I put around 2-5k on the car per year. It sits inside my buddy’s garage in the winter and is stored outside with a cover over it the rest of the year. The reason I am selling it that I don’t drive the car as much as I used to. I figure if I get what I’m asking for it, Ill sell and use the money I already have towards a down payment on a house. If not it will continue to be a garage queen. I have a binder of dyno graphs (n/a old motor, 8psi, 12psi, 14psi), and an oak trees worth of receipts on the car(have most but not all).
