As some of you may know, I recently was involved in an accident with my 98 Cobra. Unfortunately the insurance decided to total it and I decided to buy it back. I have the option of fixing the car myself and the car will then have a rebuilt title once repaired. I'm still on the fence of whether or not I want to sell it, but if the offer is right I might let it go. This is a perfect platform for anyone with a Fox looking to do a modular swap.
I am the 3rd owner of the car and bought it two years ago with 77k on the clock and it now has 117k miles, and not once has it given me a problem. Everything has been documented on this car in Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords magazine, as I was formerly the associate editor. When I bought the car it came with every reciept from the day it left the dealership, including oil changes, tire rotations, etc. I will provide every piece of documentation upon sale. I have driven this car all across Florida and all the way up to Valdosta, Georgia and back down to Key West without a hiccup.
As far as the damage, the car needs a new front bumper, hood, and passenger fender, as well as a new radiator support. I can text pictures to those interested. The paint on the rest of the car is in excellent condition for a 17 year-old car.
