When I had hatch open while painting the tail lights, I noticed the hatch struts were still original also with the ford number and date on them, wow, pretty cool!:beer:

Very nice car. Love the color and shine.

Surprisingly the hatch shocks are still stock they seem to go bad all the time. It may just be they got used which kept them in good shape.

Whats up fellas! Haven't been on here lately. Been to damn hot here in the desert, so resto is on hold till probably october when it cools down. I'll then resume my light resto work.

Itching to work on it, but it's 105 degrees everyday and a couple humid weeks thrown in to boot.

Car's still running strong and even had a tourist say" I haven't seen a 93 cobra in years" as I was sitting at the light coming out of citycenter. Guess he knew the real thing!

Tail Lights

Car looks to be comming along nice, Just curious why you went with black on the tail lights unstead of the dark charcoal like factory? Just rape off the lines and spray them as well, that is what I do when I restore them.

The lights were so faded I thought they were black originally.
