[QUOTE="BoostedSVT03, post: 15537060, member: 173841"] I had a few mustangs growing up 91, 95 GT and a 93 Cobra. Had a 03 Lightning daily driver which was the reason for joining SVTP, Ended up crossing over to the dark side and had a 02 SS Camaro until I found a 73 Camaro RS. I loved the 73' but it had a carbureted 327 engine with way too big of a cam, no heat and no A/C. I wanted to convert the car over to a 6.0 or 6.2 LS engine with A/C, and great suspension and brakes. After pricing all I would need I was looking at $18k in parts. (I like to do things right and big). I always knew the 03/04 Cobras were dollar for dollar the best cars to drive and go fast. The fact that they had a built short block from the factory was even more appealing! I have always liked White and Red Cobras and thats all I ever searched for. Found my Cobra on Ebay w/28k miles and offered the Seller my 73 Camaro on trade. The rest is history. I do regret letting the 73 go but I think someday these Cobras will be held in the same esteem as the 70 Chevelles and 69 Camaro were (Just not as rare). Someday I will get another 2nd gen Camaro thats already been setup for ProTouring to add to my collection. [/QUOTE]
