VIN # AA9BMAAHV51CN1136
REFLEX SILVER WITH GHOST RACING RONDELLS & STRIPES
Won 1st Place in 2 Dallas area car shows in 2012
(THIS IS A VERY RARE COLOR COMBINATION...AND WITH THE MATCHING PAINTED RACING RONDELLS...I GET LOADS OF COMPLIMENTS EVERYWHERE I PARK...THIS COBRA IS A SHOW STOPPER...AND WITH A ROUSH RACING ENGINE...THE EXHAUST NOTE IS AWESOME!)
OBVIOUSLY NOT YOUR AVERAGE BACKDRAFT COBRA...THIS WAS A VERY EXPENSIVE BUILD...WITH A FULL BINDER OF DOCUMENTATION...90 PAGES OF RECEIPTS & PHOTOS COMES WITH THIS COBRA!!
VEHICLE HISTORY:
The car was originally sold by Vintage Motorsports in Middletown, Connecticut & was completed on 5/12/2006. I have the complete build history and all documentation including 90 pages of laminated invoices and build pictures.

ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT INSTALLED:
1). The lips on the 17" alloy wheels have been chrome plated...but the centers were refinished (utilizing a special process) in the original grey paint...so now the Cobra is equipped with chrome wheel lips...with original Halibrand style grey centers. The total cost of this project was more than $3,000...but the wheels now are always in show condition!

11). Upgraded Polished thermostat housing & new thermostat.
12). Hella Halogen headlights for safer night time driving...
