95 Mustang Cobra Update

[ssjones]

Beautiful Cobra, I'll look forward to seeing the rebuild process. I loved the shape from that era.

That IS a beauty! Fix it, keep it, enjoy it! Who gives a toss what color the paper is that the title is printed on? You wont be able to trade it in on much of anything but if you DO enjoy it, that wont be a factor. If for some reason you do ever get tired of it, give me a call!

Sapphire Blue is correct. Not a very common color for these.

I had a 94 GT in Laser Red (most popular color). I now have a 99 GT "Limited Edition" in Performance Red. Rarest of all colors that year.

good to hear its all working out for you man. we told you it would all start turning around.

Oooh I bought the very same at at online auction here: easyexport Its good that you are going to repair it yourself, and it's not too damaged. I had to spend some money to repair the car, but it still turned out to be cheap.

heres a better pic of the damage. i know this is hard for some to look at. after further review we found the drivers side inner and outer tie rod bent, but all measurements showed the frame was nice and straight so thats all that matters.

For anyone who is still following, here are a few pics of the parts i picked up on craigslist before and after paint.

It is a rear wheel drive performance car designed for the open road. Not designed for commuting to downtown. That said. Sweet! Own it! It doesn't need a resale value if you wanna keep it. I love that deep blue paint.
Glad things are looking up for ya buddy!

Nice! Looking like things are coming along. Good luck with the rest of the rebuild and keep the updates coming. This forum just gets better everyday now I have a car build to checkout too :clap:

Wow you have done a lot!

 

[hawk60ce]

I cant take all the credit. Have a good friend helping me out as the car is at his place. Parts have been easy to find, all i need now is clear coat and a wheel and we can put her back together.
And GW, you can call it purple lol. The color code is sapphire blue. In overcast days it looks purple, in the sun it has a nice blue shade to it.

That is the great thing about mustangs. The parts are plentiful. Unless you have a 68 coupe. Every part on that year was so damn pricey and hard to find.

Getting closer. Need still need to replace the tie rods and wet sand and buff the fresh paint job. my new wheel came in the mail today and unfortunately im out of town for work so it will have to wait until monday. hoping to be on the road on wednesday.
