So I sold the Teal Terminator a couple months back now, shopped for a while and then picked this puppy up a few weeks back. I finally finished wet sanding, buffing and waxing it yesterday and the weather was gorgeous today so I figured I'd go take some pics.

I don't have any great shots of the interior or engine bay yet (still doing some cleaning up under the hood) but the interior is bone stock black leather with some extra gauges. Under the hood is a Sportsman block based 331, ported/polished GT40X heads, Holley Systemax intake, comp blower cam and LT's. It also has a TKO600 trans, a built diff with 3.73's and 31 spline axles and a Griggs GR40 suspension (I'm very pleased with this).

I don't have any dyno numbers yet but hope to tune it next weekend. I hope soon after that to take it to the track (both drag strip and road course). It's probably not quite as fast as the Terminator was but I may remedy that in the future with a Dart block, better heads and a Novi 2000. For the time being I'm really enjoying being back in a pushrod motor and this is my first SN95 car, which have always been one of my favorites. The only thing aesthetically that I currently plan to change is to put a 96-98 Cobra hood on it, which I have in the works.

Just wanted to share. Thanks for taking a look.

Looks great! Instead of a 96-98 Cobra hood, have you considered a 2" or 3" cowl?

I've always loved the understated but different look of the 96-98 Cobra hoods. Something about the raised hump in the middle and the snorkels just makes it look right. I wish the 94-95's had come with them but then again they did away with the "crab claw" spoiler on the 96-98's... so either way there is something to swap IMO, lol. If I end up painting the car down the road I may put on an S281 spoiler but for the time being I'm looking forward to the combination of the best of 94/95 and 96-98.

^^ My exact thoughts. The 96-98 cobra hood is the best looking hood on a sn95 IMO. Those rims look good. :rockon:
