Yeah, thought about it. At the end of the day, it needs a motor rebuild or replacement anyway, which would dictate the wiring. Wife (yeah, now wife, I said girlfriend earlier) approved a motor. But finding someone to competently build an old mod motor is tougher and tougher (the folks who...

Thanks, fellas. And love to see some other old members still hanging around! I'll keep the '01 at least until it's finally completely fixed! Frankly, I think the answer is a Coyote swap, but I hate deleting the mod motor lol. I have a soft spot for them. After all, still have three mod...

I don't chat on SVTP anymore, but fuel to the fire, all these Challengers blow the fk up at the TX mile LMAO :D

So it's been two years. The PCM-fuse blowing problem I was never able to diagnose; the car still does that crap. Given that the previous owner wired stuff with lamp cord sections and stuffed aluminum foil under the coil covers, something bad happened to the engine bay wiring harness I suspect...

Update! Locked up the supercharger on the 2004 in October of 2019 trying to go faster with some nitrous and the car sat through the pandemic. Finally got it out and washed it, and ordered a Gen 5 Whipple 3.0 with race port to replace the old 3.4L. Really crappy picture of as things are right...

Merry Christmas! Put the '04 Cobra's old CCW 505a's on the car to see how they'd look. They need to be polished; have been sitting in the back of my garage for at least a year. Don't mind the camber; I've just now set ride height on the coilovers and need to get an alignment.

Found my PCM-fuse-blowing cause, I think: the ignition capacitors on the backs of the cylinder head. I poked one and its insulation fell off. Used this as an excuse to start my Feal coilover install (don't mind the wheel well dirt, I'll detail it). Also started the third or fourth engine...

Happy Thanksgiving! Car was running and driving great until it started eating PCM fuses. Diagnosing that. Below is a pic of it waiting for the tow truck. Definitely planning on doing the turbos!

Alright one more.

Will post more pics soon, but..

Should be done Friday!

Yes, the tail lights are absolutely critical on these 99-01's! Thanks! It is a 75. It was my grandfather's car. It'll need to be painted at some point too! Alright, more updates (pardon the dust):

Almost forgot, I also got a new set of these. Sorry the picture is so small, and I did not take a picture after I polished them up but before I took them to the body shop. The ones the car had were in eh shape. Just wouldn't do with the fresh paint.

Hey Kevin! Same to you. We really need to catch up sometime. CobraBob - I changed them just because I felt like the 19"s were a little too big. These are 18's. Stay tuned folks!

Have both love both. Saving an '01 right now: https://www.svtperformance.com/threads/bought-the-most-neglected-cobra-ever.1170885/
