Ultra Rare Gold Plate

My salesman told me that for a few $ more I could get the special "Gold" version of the engine plate..... :lol:

(Or, it could be a function of taking a low light picture with my digital camera :shrug: )

Nice to see another Canadian in the forum!

Also sigbed by John Coletti & Steve Saleen,in glove box & under the hood,& on the wrap around shroud on the raidator by John Coletti.I sure would like to get my hands on a Ford GT.But would need to sell my S-281 Cobra #97 first,unless i win the Power-Ball.Then we talking serious car SHOPPING then.

How are you guys getting your build # from SVT. I thought they would not release the # until 2003 Production year was over. I've had a 1996,1998 cobra,& a 2000 Lightning & never got my production # until the final one was produced,at the end of that pataricular year. Just wondering how i could get my #,it was built September 24th,& I received it from Saleen out of California October 15th,2002. Could some-one inform me on this. Thank you.S-281 Cobra #97--Red-Fire-Coupe---Randy Fontenot,--Lafayette,Louisiana.

Mine are very hard to decipher, but arent any of the names described so far.

Gary (P or R)ank? and Donald (T or J) Lottrell (must be Donald J Cottrell like SVTyBallz)

Take some pride guys! I know I do!


No problems at all!!

No one has their build number yet. They might be referring to the last few numbers of their VIN, but not their build number. I know of only person who produced a Certificate for a 03 Cobra, said something to the effect that SVT sent it to him by mistake. He even posted a pic of it on here. We wont know , like you said, until the end of production sometime later this year.

Paul Warmbrocker and BOB Mcintyre built my engine. Runs perfect.

Mine was built by Bill Sheffer and Doug Campbell. My 01 was also built by the same two guys. Im a member of the svt cobra club and we had a dyno day in Columbia, S.C. There were three cars there with the same builders(Bill Sheffer and Doug Campbell). There was my car, another 03 Cobra and a 01 Saleen Cobra. Pretty strange. Check out the web site @svtcobraclub.com and see the cars. Mine is the silver 03.
