Thanks, and will do. I do not know that I ever want to have contact with the PO after this experience! Or the shady-ass Oklahoma City dealer that repo'd this and listed it on Copart and had the balls to try to haggle up the price.
Ah, TOTALLY understandable. I may have missed that detail in your thread.

205.4 in the mile in your Cobra! That's impressive. Did you change the wheels for appearance? I assume weight-wise the two are about the same?

Hey Kevin! Same to you. We really need to catch up sometime.

CobraBob - I changed them just because I felt like the 19"s were a little too big. These are 18's.

Stay tuned folks!

Sorry the picture is so small, and I did not take a picture after I polished them up but before I took them to the body shop. The ones the car had were in eh shape. Just wouldn't do with the fresh paint.

Good call on the sp500s, I think they look so much better than the 505s.
God I cant imagine 205 in an 03! Balls of steel bro

Nice call on the tails...best (pain in the ass) little touch on any proper new edge. Can't wait to see the end result.

Yes, the tail lights are absolutely critical on these 99-01's!

It is a 75. It was my grandfather's car. It'll need to be painted at some point too!

Alright, more updates (pardon the dust):

That's a good suggestion/question. I remember seeing in another thread a few weeks ago that someone went with a cloth top. It looked REALLY nice!
