I remember those nasty playing cards…..once you extracted them from the body, thick with clear coat, they were sharp and deadly, like Chinese throwing stars! You could have opened a vein with the Queen of Hearts!
Thanks Bill! The pic above was taken at Watkins Glen on that leg of the One Lap tour….
The original owner owned a Lincoln Mercury dealership….he also owned a 93 Cobra R that he raced in SCCA and the 95R was kind of a play toy for him.
I wondered what happened to my Rosie car! Barely saw any pics of it….based on current sale prices creeping up, I should have kept it!
If I kept it, I had plans of replicating the One Lap of America decals…..even talked to Brock Yates son about their C&D door decals….see the decals in my avatar...

eBay Motors: 1999 Ford Mustang Cobra R Article From 2007 (item 400039917496 end time Apr-03-09 17:34:53 PDT)
I knew that rollbar looked familiar!
Does anyone have the part number for the 2000R high-temp rubber tie-rod end covers???
Also, are they still available from Ford?
Any help is appreciated.
