[QUOTE="sonic_4.6, post: 9587445, member: 22900"] Four Eyed Fox that is. :) This place was ridicules. Pretty much a graveyard for a lot of unique cars. The Cobra pictures are way at the bottom. You're probably wondering why the hell I would even bother with a '79 Cobra. Well, my father ordered one brand new back in '78, so I've always tried to keep an eye out for another red one. The body is surprisingly in great shape. Ford made the Cobra from 79-81 and most of them were 302s, however, this one (just like my father's) is a 2.3-Turbo 4-speed. It was a limited-production Mustang, and the factory turbo examples are extremely hard to find anymore since they had reliability problems which sent them to an early death. This one was traded into a Ford dealership in 1992, and the guy drove it to his farm and just parked it. Kinda sad. My long-term goals with this car is to get it presentable, then modernize it with a 4v Modular. Like I said, it isn't anything to look at right now, but I've started out with worse.
