My 79 cobra. Your pictures make me want to make mine look more original. Someone put the newer quarter windows in mine and a newer spoiler. But I like the 92 5.0 drivetrain in mine, although the original 2.3 turbo would be cool if it was reliable.
here is a pic of my cobra as it sits right now. shes slightly dismantled

Hear is my 79 COBRA. Factory radio delete, console delete, and I guess cobra decal delete. The paint is iffy on being original because it is supposed to be two-tone but it is all silver. No motor/trans. Factory 302/C4 with 2.47 gears. These pics were taken where I found the car.

Welcome to the site! Nice looking Cobra you've got there. I like the seats and they appear to be in fantastic condition. Keep on pluggin' until it's done!

Oh ya, It's really nice that the interior is clean and won't really require any work. The previous owner had panned to replace the head liner. He took it off and bought the stuff to replace it but never got it installed. So we need to install it and thats about all.
Keep in mind these are before we wiped up and cleaned the inside a bit,
And one more outside.

Good looking find man! I am glad to see another COBRA come to the surface and actually get fixed rather than parted out or junked. Keep up the good work and keep us posted and put that thing in the cobra registry.

No way is it getting junked ! I really like that it's a Fox and yet it's rare/unique. I see a million 87+ Fox body's but not to many older 4-eyes.

Here is the only picture I have of my old 79. It was in great shape (well I did blow the trans and turbo out) with mint interior. It had a sunroof and even had the bag to put the glass in when you take it out.
It was my first Mustang and man I should have kept it!! I think I paid like $800.00 for it back in 1990.
Sorry for the horrible picture, but like I said its the only one I have.
911 NEVER FORGET!!

I picked this one up 4 hours ago. 71,000 miles, I am the fourth owner. It was garaged the last 12 years. I am letting my wife think it is hers.

hissing cobra, do you have the picture of your cobra going on an on-ramp with a bridge and the horizon in the background? I need a new desktop.

I traded a rusted out 260z for this modern ratrod. I was told that it was a dragster, but the pieces were put back on for the road. Lucky for me, the original seats are near perfect, but the rest looks like it's from Mad Max. It's got a 302HO, Holly 750, Hooker headers, DynaFlow exhaust with cherry bombs, T-5 tranny, 4.88 rear end. It's got a helluva pickup off the line and a nice throaty note. It has the original decal on the cowelling that was painted over. My first car was a '78 red Mustang II four cylinder, and I am thrilled to drive it's big brother now.
guess its my turn to post some pics
Wow! I like the Blue graphics against the White background. Any more pictures of the hood decal?
