Hello. I recently sold a '66 coupe and thought I could go without a Mustang, but soon got an itch for a Cobra. I shopped for a while (on a tight budget) and bought an '01 vert yesterday. It's got a tan top which I'm not crazy about and the body needs work (previous owner installed mismatched body kit) BUT it's got a brand new long block, radiator, oil cooler, and clutch all done at a Ford dealership and under warranty! It came with 2 sets of wheels and uninstalled h-pipe and headers. I need tires, so I'll soon need to decide on best tire size, whether to use these wheels or upgrade, and whether or not to keep headers. I'll be posting questions soon, so please help and please excuse any ignorance I display, afterall I'm a Cobra newbie and by no means a mechanic.

Welcome to the site man. Congrats on the new car.
You can always sell the set of wheels you don't want on here.
Make sure to wear out the search button before starting too many threads.

Tough row to hoe! The saints emblems are gone! I've got to get bigger tires on there, and find replacement bumpers.

Good idea on the bumpers. lol
Is the logo on the hood painted?
Looks like a clean car minus the few "issues" you've addressed.
