I hate to do this but with a wedding and a home purchase coming up in a few months, it is time to let this car go. To start off it is a 92 Coupe that started life as a 4cylinder car. I bought it off of a guy right after he had finished a v8 swap. I drove it for a while then decided to drop in the spare 03 cobra motor I had and make it a race car. I have done 95% of what I had intended so someone is going to get an almost completed race for a great price. As far as parts go, the only things needed to put this car on the track are a set of drag wheels/tires, and front/rear brakes. Everything else has already been completed. The motor has 20K miles and was pulled from a wrecked 03 cobra in 2005. It consists of a stock bottom end, with p&p’d heads with a set of comp cams. The blower is a stage V port from Steigemeier. I am not running a heat exchanger like stock 03 cobra’s. Because this is a race car I am running a 5 gallon fuel in the place of the passenger seat with a Mezeire pump. This is much more efficient since the tank can be filled with ice and fresh water as often as I like without the headaches of an engine bay mounted water tank. The engine uses a BIG STUFF 3 engine management system and was tuned by Dave Guy of SGS performance. Hp and Tq both come in at 500. It’s low numbers are attributed to the stock blower not being able to put enough air into the worked over heads. If a whipple or KB were to be installed the motor would come alive. The tranny is a Proshifted T5 by Bob Hanlin. The tranny will hold up at the current power level, but a swap will probably needed if the wick is turned up anymore. This car was built to be a race car however nothing has been done so far that would ruin it from street duty. It does have a fuel cell in the trunk, however no major modifications where done to mount it. A tank could still easily be mounted in the stock location. The body is in good condition. It is a 16 year old car so there are the usual blemishes that come with it’s age. Most notably the rear quarter window trim is in rough shape and a spot of rust under the paint on the rear lip of the trunk lid. Out of ten I would list the body as a 7. The only parts she needs is a set of headlights. If you were to give the car a new paint job she would look great again. The interior is in good shape. There are no cracks or serious problems with any panels or the dash because I have placed everything that was damaged and the carpet is also brand new. The only thing holding the interior back from being in excellent condition is the upholstery which has seen its better days. I was planning to do a rear bulkhead with a set of racing seats so I didn't bother replacing them. Below I have a thorough modification list with the pictures. As you'll see by the parts list, the car was put together with quality parts and nothing that has been completed is skimped on. I'm asking $12,500, I'm not 100% percent firm and have no problem with taking offers but please only contact me if you are serious. If have any questions please email me at [email protected] , I will answer all of your questions promptly. I also am capable of taking more pictures so if there is a certain area of the car that you want to see let me know and I’ll get you the pics.

thanks,
Shea

Man, that would be a fun car !!!

Good price as well, considering the work you put into it, plus a good engine, fuel system, etc...

Any idea on how much the car weighs ?? I bet it can't weigh too much, especially compared to an '03 Cobra.

This car woudl be an awesome car to play with, you're right. I honestly have no idea how much the car weights, but I think it would be safe to say that it's under 3k.
