WTB 03-04 Cobra

[Steve-0]

Well, I've started looking around the past couple days, figure I might as well start with a thread here.

Looking for preferably a 10th anniversary 03 but I'm still open for anything...mostly. Car must be no more than lightly modded. No twin screws, no nitrous, no SRA swaps etc. Bolt-ons, ported, pulley changes, alright up to a point. Looking for under 60k miles. No race cars. No cages, back seat is optional :sticktonge:

Colors I would consider..
1. Black!- preferred!
2. Sonic Blue
3. Torch Red
4. Oxford white

No SY! Don't think I could bring myself to drive a yellow car.:rotflol: CO is out too, just not a fan of it. Looking to spend 20k or so. I am lurking a good bit on svtperformance.com but, let me know of anything anyone can find! Thanks!

Also you won't get OW, or Sonic, in Anniversary. They came in Silver, Red, and Black. Just to let you know

[Steve-0]

Maybe we can work out a trade for some guns! Did you get my 2nd PM?

I was kicking the idea around. It would be a little more than $20k though. Just turned 5k miles.

Hrmm, yea thats what I thought. Insane. PM me a ballpark of what you would be looking to get, just for fun:rofl: Doesnt your car have a whipple on it too?

Thanks Kevin. :goodidea:

Steve, I will PM you later after work.

[wickedsnake03]

The one at courtesy ford in altoona is mystichrome. The car came from virginia. I actually called about the car when it was for sale in virginia. no one knew who tuned the car, nor did they know what the timming or anything was at. it actually got bought buy a kid in altoona a few weeks after i bought my torch red cobra.

the car does have a kenne bell 2.2 with a 3.25 upper pulley. has a cobra r front bumper and some big steeda wing.

the car never seemed to run like a kenne bell car should, I suspect it needs a tune.

[Steve-0]

Thanks Kevin. :goodidea:

Steve, I will PM you later after work.

please do! I would probably sell some stuff of mine justso i could afford your car.

[Steve-0]

I'm still looking. lots of verts for sale. Guess i should have said that in my first post too. NO convertables! :thmbsup:

ugh... mystichrome FTW... that is one car i would own in a heartbeat if i had the money....

[karnutz4]

The mystic at courtesy ford is actually pretty clapped out ! The front bumper cover is a cobra r thats hit more curbs than I most people change underwere. also it has a big ass wing, simaliar to a cobra r that has the decklid wavy and im pretty sure it has been driven all year long by the looks of it. I heard the have 18k in it. Could be a good winter project for the right price !!

CST 03 and I purchased our cars from there too!

I see that hi endauto has a nice vett but only a few lower milage Cobras. I should give him a call and see if he wants a trade. j/k

[Terminated]

I've heard good things about Hi-End... I'm sure I'll give those guys a ring when I'm ready to get one!

Prob has 150k miles on it or something. If not they are *really* stupid for asking so little.

Man if I had the cash I would keep mine the way it is and pick that one up to build the heck out of it. Hmmmmm :goodidea:

Thoughts? Looks pretty nice. I think the price might be slightly high, but that is just me.

[somethingclever]

ugh...that brings back memories....

I think the car is priced pretty well...reasonable miles, reasonable mods, reasonable price.

Good luck! :goodidea:

[cwh19]

Yea I think the price is pretty right on. Might be able to drop him a bit for the scuff mark but I'd say its pretty close. I looked at many termys whenever I was in search of a new car. The bank just wouldn't have it though ha. Goodluck!

[Steve-0]

I dont think the price is bad, see if he will take off the 500 for the rear bumper. Gonna make a trip to the credit union tomorrow to see what they say. Hoping for the best.

[1Badbird]

Nice find, hope it works out for you.

Thanks everyone for the help so far, I appreciate it! I applied for a loan today at USX, wait and see what happens I guess.:thmbsup:

[Steve-0]

anyone have any good info on shipping vehicles? from say chicago? or know anyone reasonable? i actually might have a trailor, but not a big enough truck...

[biminiLX]

Let me look for the info. on the guy that shipped my Contour. Nice enclosed trailer out of Bowling Green, OH, reasonable price too

This is something to consider....
Just list what your Max is and people bid the job.
Make sure you ask for insurance.

[Steve-0]

Well I'd rather not with 160,000 miles and the big tires. Dad is gonna let me borrow his 08 to go get it. Buddy is letting me borrow his trailer for a weekend.:goodidea: Should have the new ride by next weekend!:jump:

[cwh19]

Which one did you get

[scott5]

Congrats steve

[somethingclever]

Fly in and drive home......why trailer it?

[pRojekt02GT]

:yes:

[Steve-0]

I would... but i think 100 octane is harder to come by then id like it to be. that and drag radials in the rain is no fun.:thmbsup:

Oh and i broke a few of my guidelines for this car, but i think it will be ok. its black, and has a shiny black thing under the hood too. found it on svtperformance. someone will find it im sure, if ya do, post up a link. i cant from my ipod.

Of course! I have the feeling I'll be giving a lot of rides when I get it. CARFAX came back clear as a bell. 4 previous owners. First guy owned it for 3 years and put 50 miles on it! 2nd owner put about 9k on it in two years, 3rd guy put around 3400 on it in 6 months. Current guy definitely drove it the most, 10k miles in like 16 ish months. w00t!

I just happen to be browsin thru some old classifieds n saw an 04' for sale on the 19th page. Maybe hit that dude up n check it out.

[Steve-0]

This is the biggest pain in the ass ever. Trying to buy a car with a lien on the title through a different bank off of someone you don't know is horrible. Doesnt seem to be any way around not having the title or car for at least 3 weeks, but paying the guys car off. Dont know about this.:rolleyes:

Go to the lien holders bank (with the seller) and pay the check to them....you can get the title the same day.

Not necisarily<sp. When Adam (Troll) bought my 01 Red GT, and we went to the bank to pay it off. They wouldn't give us the title. We still had to wait a week before it came in the mail to me.

[Steve-0]

Go to the lien holders bank (with the seller) and pay the check to them....you can get the title the same day.

His loan is through M&H bank which is actually headquartered in New York. Apparently it has to go through them first then they send the electronic title to harrisburg, then they make a paper title then send it to him. At least thats what his bank told me.

[somethingclever]

What I should've said is "it's possible" to get the title the same day. When I sold my 04 the buyer got the title on the spot from my credit union.

Even if you can't get it the same day, it's still no big deal......get a notorized bill of sale and if it makes you more comfortable, do the deal at the bank.

[Steve-0]

Its a done deal. Car is paid for, just waiting on the title so I can go pick the car up. My new ride:

Picked the cobra up today! Of course on the first day it snows this year. It was definitly an interesting drive back from philly. Pictures and a new thread tomorrow!

[PaxtonShelby]

Buddy - that is a GORGEOUS car! Congrats!!

Sure is going to be tough to put it away for the winter, but that's probably the best thing. When the roads are cold like this, even when they're clean, you'll have next to no traction.

Is that one of the rarer colors? I have seen more in black, blue, white, and gray than that color. Really looks great!

[TBone7281]

Rode in it last night for a little bit. Has me thinking about parting out the V6...

[Steve-0]

Well its getting to that time, figured id update this since I have yet to make a new thread about the car. Ordered a bunch of parts last night for it. Got a 4# metco lower, lethal aluminum intercooler tank, pfab coolant tank, billet cap kit, billetflow redfire irs brace, fiore firewall adjuster and clutch quadrant kit, and a new shorty antenna. Car is at my friends body shop getting the whole car repainted.(long story) getting some stuff underhood painted to match, and some airbrush work too. Car is pretty much all sanded now. I'm not quite done with the mods, but that was enough for now. Next on the list is a small shot of n20...:yes:
