98 Cobra w/Terminator swap

[71chevellejohn]

Is 6k really out of line?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like a 13yr old Mustang with a half-ass engine swap. You've been around Mustangs long enough to know it's worth more in parts than it is as a complete car.

Get the gauges fixed and clean it up some more... maybe 8k?

Too bad it isn't a convertible, I'd buy it for $6250. I've seen 96-98 Cobras go for $4500 in good shape. It's got a nice motor and all, but Danny is probably right at the high end. Don't threaten me not to call you out so that I can call you out so that you won't show up about it, either.

But he paid more than that and then dumped more money into it.... It has to be worth more!


I *think* that KWclutch was asking 12-13k(or more) for the car when he owned it

i bet that thing is fun to drive glad to see you got the problems worked out

[jw33]

You should fix up the suspension, get the A/C working, and just keep that thing. 80% of the work is done and no payment for a toy car is nice. Now if someone shows up with 11K, take it and run...

[LaserSVT]

I bet you would. You can't even buy the motor for that.

Yes you could. Many times I have run into 03/04 complete motors for $3500-$5000 but never had that kind of coin to drop at once on a project.

OAN, I love the car. I miss my 96 Laser Red Cobra to no end. Would have been my ultimate Mustang if it had my 03 Cobra under its skin.


So since the entire ECU and all was switched over is it now a returnless dual pump system? Is the baffled tank in the car? Is it a 6 speed now? Does it have the IRS?

Also if the dash harness has been swapped over but the wires just not hooked up or ran then bring the car by here. I specialize in Ford DOHC 4.6 motors and have done several complete projects that are similar. I wont charge but half of normal shop rates and it will work the first time.

Just brig the cluster and whatever you have and we will get her working.

While I agree its a nice car, but with the prices of terminators coming down into the mid to lower teens it only makes sense to buy the newer car.

There is nothing half ass about the swap. What are you talking about?

It might be worth that much if it were a slow ass vert built with O'Reilly junk speed parts. But since it's not, you obviously have no clue what you're talking about as usual.

I thought it was just that the harness didn't match, I didn't realize it had been changed.

Nope, it's got a complete 03/04 wiring harness.

That body style is the biggest thing against it selling over $10k. I like it a hair more than a 78 cobra.

I'd part it out. I wanted to buy my wrecked 03 cobra back, but I wasn't giving the insurance company $9k for a car with a thrashed body/rear end.

You'll miss it if you get a GT500. They are refined to the point of dulling all feeling of power. I'm thinking about selling mine and getting another 03 cobra and a 93 cobra.

That's your opinion, myself and alot of other people disagree with you.

It's got a complete 03 fuel system including an 03 tank, twin Ford GT pumps, 60lb injectors, 03 computer etc.

Yes, it has a T56 six speed transmission with a brand new Spec clutch with less than 100 miles on it.

No IRS. It has a SRA with 4.10's.

PM me your contact information so we can talk about it.

Alot of people like the car alot. It's lighter than a 03/04 Cobra, it's got the sleeper thing working for it and alot of people really like SN95's. The only Terminators you will get for those mid/low teen prices are the 100k plus cars that have been beat to death.

I guess I should have known better than to post it here so all the DFWM cheapskates can tear everything down as usual.

Don't get me wrong I dig the car, just from a consumer standpoint. I've seen them in the with 70-90k in the teens with working a/c and parts. Its just from a cost stand point. I'd honestly much rather have it in a 93 cobra or sn95 chassis just resale is a bitch. Bitchin car though!

[slowyellow]

I love the car man. Don't let the nay sayers get you down, lol. I have termintaor-itus since I drove my buddies. I am really thinking about getting rid of my Fox for one. GLWTS.

Completely understandable, no offense taken. The worse that happens is I keep the car, put the Whipple on it and have a fun, light 700rw car for cheap. Man that sucks! lol.

Thanks bud. I don't know why I expected otherwise. I should have expected it from the notorious lowballer status of this site. If it isn't a rust bucket that is 60 years old, it's just not cool enough for them. lol. This car is freakin blast to drive!

lol always expect negative feedback from this site. I think its a badass car. Nice color wheels and stance. Awesome drivetrain in a awesome car. Would love to ride in it sometime. I would more than likely take this over a 03 cobra after you got it all done. Very nice Steve

Since there is no ad that i can see... how much are you asking for it?

Built for speed is my cars motto! I'm not the one trying to sell a car for what it cost to build. Considering I haven't bought a speed part in well over 6 years, I'd say my return on investment is doing well. Yours however, well....

What is wrong with the suspension? I'd figure just about everything that is wrong with every other fox body suspension that hasn't been upgraded. They suck cock for crack.

A friend of mine just bought an 03 Cobra for 14k with well under 100k on the clock. It was even off a LOT, not a private seller. Of course the other day you were trying to argue no less than 3 people on here buying 2011 GT stripper models for 27.5, so I don't expect you to have the slightest clue when it comes to pricing when selling something. You probably just point at a car, your wife writes a check, and you go on your merry fuckin' way.

What's the matter Steve? 2 years ago it was you saying "Mustangs suck, if you wanted to go fast you'd buy a Vette!!11 in every single post that had mention of the word "Mustang" on a... Mustang website. Now you're getting all bent out of shape trying to recoup an unfinished project MUSTANG for what it cost to build(POSSIBLY EVEN MORE?)? Don't make me fucking laugh. Too late!

You're right, though, I haven't owned more Mustangs than you have, or ever modified any of them at all. I don't know shit, and the ones I did modify just had SBC chrome valve covers that I got from work and JB welded to the top of the engine. Keep on truckin', big guy!
