Selling my Torch Red 2003 SVT Cobra Convertible 10th Anniversary Edition. Wanted to post here first as I’ve been a long-time lurker and these forums helped me immensely throughout my time as a Cobra owner.

Fully built motor by MMR, Stiegemeier Ported Eaton, complete suspension w/Full Tilt Boogie rear end, and upgraded drivetrain (except for original T-56 transmission). Lots of other upgrades and goodies. Tuned by AED in NORCAL. Dyno’d at 504 HP/ 474 ft-lbs TQ.

Registered in AZ, Clean AZ title in hand. Car has been garage kept since 2008, less than 500 miles on new build and 100 miles on new clutch. Interior and exterior in good shape, paint looks good however there are a few chips and dents that I tried to capture in photos. New interior carpet and leather/seats in good shape except for the driver’s side leather is worn with a tear in the bolster that needs to be repaired. All other upgrades and defects documented below.

Car has mostly sat the past couple years, with kids and life changes she doesn’t get driven as much as she should and I’d like to see her go to a good home.

Notes:
  • Clutch is brand new, about 100 miles into break in. Shifts great but I’m suspecting the TOB is riding on the pressure plate slightly, may need some slight adjustment.
  • Engine is about 600 miles into break in. Oil changed 100 mile ago with RP break in oil.
  • Tires are 10+ years old, tread looks good but I’d be replacing them if I was driving more frequently/farther.
  • Engine bay gets hot on summer days. If I was keeping the car, I’d put in a bigger radiator. It’s never overheated on me, but with the small pulley, the temps get high, even with extra ventilation in the engine compartment.
  • Electrical system is built to support a sound system upgrade, just never got around to it.

If anyone out of state wants an uninterested party to look at this car, i'm about 50 min away and happy to inspect for a potential buyer.
