Operation Save a Snake.....

[Turbo96'Cobra]

Just got in Sunday Morning at 12:45am, It was a long trip from Portland Back home to Greeley. But it was a fun trip and we documented it and took pictures. The Car was found to have a stock pulley and Full Kenney Brown rear Suspension Including Full Length Subframe Connectors and the Orginal Window Sticker and documentation.

We Flew Out and Drove Back, W/ My Friend who has a 97'KB 2v

Dealership:

Test Drive:

Friend Knew Some People from High School that moved to Portland, so we went out:

Oregon you cant fill your own gas they have to do it for you:

[Turbo96'Cobra]

Lol, either have I you should have seen when I asked the guy why he was touching my gas door and my car, I had no idea they filled you fuel for you. I was like can I help you with something? and the look i got back was hillarous I told him i didnt know about the law out here :shrug:

Haha yeah if I didn't know that was the law, I would've done the same. But nice cobra... must've got a sweet deal?

Well at least with the little bit of black on the hood your car will be slightly faster than all the other silver ones... Since we all know black is the fastest color...

 

[WOTjunkie]

Oh and btw, the gas cap sticker is so that the genius's workin at the gas stations don't put the wrong fuel in, since you're not allowed to pump yourself...

 

[SVTDice]

Nice looking car...But...Why is it called operation Save a Snake? Looks fine to me, Maybe the hood and the sticker does not look the best otherwise the car looks fine :shrug:

 

[RFsnake]

Car looks great, like other's, I thought this was a salvage pick up or something. Never knew you couldn't fill your own tank in Oregon, interesting.

oregon is like new jersey, i guess. its against the law to pump your own gas there too. it threw me for a loop when i first moved out there, a few years back (im back in oklahoma now tho)...its also against the law to eat in your car out there! like...going thru a drive thru/fast food place....getting your food, and then pulling off into their lot, to park and eat...is a big no-no (or so i was told).

car looks good! i would ditch that front plate/tag holder asap, and hope there are no holes drilled into the bumper, under it! ...and maybe get a silver hood put back on. time to start the modding as well! these things are slow running stock boost levels! time to double the boost!!

 

[WOTjunkie]

Yeah my brother lives in Oregon. He said the main reason why the gas stations have people there to pump your gas is because it creates more jobs for the economy... Which is a pretty cool idea.

I ordered 3.73's for it already, but I am going to "hopefully" do tasteful mods to it and take my time on things. I would like to in the future find a whipple or KB. But we'll see.

It was at a Chevrolet Dealership and surounded by new Camaro's so that was what we thought we would name the trip lol. No other real meaning.

Front Plate is not drilled in to the bumper and the black stripe is growing on me and I might keep it. I think it helps break up all that silver.

 

[Ralo]

Really can't pump your own gas there?

 

[WizardsCobra]

Nice looking Cobra reminds me a ton of my old one.

 

[Bella03]

I gotta say nice cobra how much did you pick it up for if u dont mind?

 

[CobraBob]

Congratulations! I like this Cobra, including the black hood treatment. But most important, YOU like it. Enjoy it. You must have had a blast driving it back home.

 

[oldmodman]

Congratulation on joining the club!

That trip must have been a blast. Nothing like a new car and a road trip at the same time.

Congrats, but why gears for your first mod? Once you throw a pully/tune/cai on the car, traction will be an issue even in 2nd gear?

BTW, be very careful with the full throttle 5th and 6th gear blasts as that is a recipe for disaster.

Looks like a cool trip you had and enjoy the car.
