SOLD
Hi
I'm selling my 2003 Cobra
$35,000
45k mi
Black
Clean title
CA car - no rust/no corrosion
No stories / nothing hidden
I've owned it since 11/2018
I'm selling because the drag strip here is closing, and I have bought something more street-oriented
I'm listing it on national forums as it will not pass CA emissions
I'm in Sacramento CA
Start-up video from today 8/15/23
The car has a charging issue
It has a Nation's alternator/external voltage regulator, which I shipped to them 12/22
It came back with a clean bill of health
The car starts first crank, every time, with voltage 14.6-14.8
After about 15mins of starting, the voltage drops to ~11.9
I have a stock alternator in a box that I'm going to swap out if I get the time, trying to diagnose the issue
I have so little free time to work on the car - I'd like to sell it diagnosed/fixed, but I'm willing to take a few thousand off of asking price if I don't have the time to get it done
I purchased the car through AED, who did most of the work
It's a stock longblock with ARP head studs
Gen2 2.9 crusher - oil changed <50mi ago
Right at 800rwhp on E85
Tuned at AED
Engine:
As above, stock longblock
ARP head studs

Happy to have anyone local look at/vouch for the car in the event the buyer is out of state
I can help arrange for transport though I've never shipped a car before
It's hard to let this go. It's fast, it's fun, it's a great street/strip car with AC/heat. I may regret it, but realistically between wife/three young kids/stressful job I feel it's the right decision to make
Thanks - feel free to shoot me whatever questions you may have
