Basically, it has everything that a Cobra would aspire to having - all supporting mods EXCEPT the only thing I haven't done is change the rear axles - and I would suggest it for sticky tires. I opted for some of the best parts available (For example, I went with a complete Maximum Motorsports tubular front end instead of the less expensive UPR/D&D stuff).

I will also consider trades plus cash. I am looking for a stockish daily driver. Would prefer a silver GT 2000-2004, but will consider anything but a fox (Love foxes, just not for a DD).

Fantastic car!

I bet you've smoked a few Brand-Xer's and they were like..... "DOH?????, What's in that thing????"

Very nice!

The fact is, I drive it so little that I haven't come up next to anything that would have a chance. I did a little spurt with an older modded 900RR and was pretty even but he pulled away near the end of the run, like bikes usually do

hey man would u consider a trade for my car + cash?

 

[Jfoster]

I do love silver but I think we're a little too far away and you're car might be a little too much car for me. Mainly the distance though. I wouldn't mind shipping mine but to try to do both at one time is a hassle I'd like to avoid.

Nice car though - thanks for the offer.

 

[SIr RicCuS]

That's sure as hell one sick Mach 1!

TTT for the OP!

 

[01svtL]

Jesus that is a nice Mach!

 

[2bscrewed]

Nice car! How much power does it make?

 

[Jfoster]

Thanks guys - it is a fun car to drive. It's amazing how nice it drives (I was worried about the coilovers but they are quiet and ride better than any standard lowering spring setup I've ever been in).

It made 566/570 on a mustang dyno at 14lbs and high 10s AFR. I've since upped it to 17lbs and the AFR is now in the low 11s but I haven't been back to the dyno because I wanted to log it and my livewire was being replaced at SCT. I just got it back, so I'm looking forward to getting the AFR where it should be. The bad part is that it's getting hot here in FL now - and you know how that can mess up the numbers. I expect to hit over 600 easy though and still be very very safe. If the 650 mark is reachable, might throw in some race fuel and bump the timing, but it doesn't make a lot of sense because I don't think it will see sticky tires while I have it - and it doesnt hook up as it is now Bragging rights, I guess.

Took the car to the track this weekend for the first time. I had some older drag radials and only did a quick burn-out, so the traction wasn't the best - which is what I wanted because one of the only things I haven't done on the car is the axles

Anyway, granny-shifting, 2.0 60', 7.80 in the 1/8th, spinning for the first 330'. When it hooked, it was very strong - 11.80 and trapped 131. If I do the axles and put a "real" sticky tire on there, 10s should not be a problem.

No longer interested in trades but I will accept offers with or without the wheels/tires.

That is damn impressive! :beer:

Thanks guys. Next project is waiting though. Happy and sad at the same time. If I were Jay Leno, I'd keep them all!

You're not going to believe this, but my Mach 1 just got totaled on Monday and I'm looking for another. Send me an email when you get the chance. I'd like to talk to you a little about yours. Thanks.
