I just cracked open my archives and pulled out some pics and videos.
If you're on Contour.org, you probably already saw this stuff.

1) SVT Contour pre-production photos. Plus a 1998 Atlantic Blue Cobra, 1995 Cobra R #2/250.

MISC Film pics, SVT, others

2) Bondurant SVT Contours at Delivery (I need to rescan...)

Old post but as the previous owner of two of these Bondurant Contour SVTs, I believe the red car above is the one that became Bondurant CSVT #1. Same car in both sets of pictures, cool!

Very cool.
I picked up a collector quality ‘00 Silver Frost with 9000miles back in 2007-08. I daily drove it for 4yrs to over 80k miles and loved that car. Should have never sold it. I’d probably still take the ‘89 SHO I had over it though, hard to top that 3.0 Yamaha motor!

I remember you from CEG! Glad you’re still around. Keep an eye on BringaTrailer over the next few months. A low mileage silver frost (not mine) is coming.

My '95 Cobra R was a cool car back in the day. Though I prefer my '93 Cobra.

I'd rather have either over any new Mustang.

Yes I enjoyed that site and joined other CSVT guys during my time in Pittsburgh. I’m pretty sure my car was used in a photoshoot where we got one of each color together for a pick under a Pittsburgh bridge. Never got the calendar as planned unfortunately.
I still have a real ST220 that I personally dropped off at Extrude hone outside of Pittsburgh. I had intended to keep the car fairly stock but with a 3L with ported heads, mild cams and the ST220 ported intake.
If you know anyone trying to build a nice CSVT I’d almost give it away.

I’m interested. I am buying back one of my Bondurant cars and one of the PPG cars I used to own. I also have Rob Walton’s CSVT Racecar.
Shoot me a PM.

Cool, old photos. They took me back a bit. I can't remember the last time I saw a Contour SVT, let alone a regular Contour.

I’d love a bone stock csvt today.

I live in Canada and a few years ago I spotted a mega clean red one. Left my number with no luck.

Miss my old SVT Contour sometimes, the thing was so fun to drive. Like Bob, I haven't seen one in years, and the last one I saw was in pretty rough shape.

I owned two CSVT. Here is my silver frost that I sold with 26,XXX miles to a Ford executive. Drove from Michigan to pick it up. you can see his rig in the back round. This was like 3 years ago. The new owner is a collector and had a 93 cobra R as well.
