Got the panels repainted "smoke" on the Ex Georgia State Patrol Mustang....I will take the time to redo everything later when I have the time but for now this will put it back into "driver" status. I still have to paint the 10 holes black and get tires for them but at least it is back the original two-tone color from it's former service days
The first pic is what it looked like when I got it...the second 2 pics are as of today.

No, I think they're right. The Cobra faces towards the front on the passenger side and towards the rear on the drivers side.
Good eye though Doug! I hadn't even noticed them. Still posers though

I will be putting some lights and features back on the car.....ofcourse it is show only as it is highly illegal and I am not about to use them on the road....but they would be nice for show.
I also may stray a bit from the 10 holes.....still a black wheel with silver cap but I have another set of wheels here I might try out. I'm not going back as any form of concours restoration...just having fun

I think that would be a Vector bar.

This car more than likely originally had a Whelan bar on it.....I doubt I will put one back on the roof, I'll leave it a slick top and have LED lights inside the car.

True Doug
The Cobra on both sides is to face forward. This is one of biggest mistakes made by owners when they repaint/repair a cobra.The order two of the same cobra emblems instead of a different one for each side as on original.

Doug and Russ.....you are actually incorrect on the Cobra emblems. The 94-up Cobras had both cobra snake emblems facing forward BUT....the '93 Cobra did in fact have the driver side emblem facing to the rear and the passenger emblem facing the front....There was only ONE emblem in '93. That changed for 94 and ever since there have been a Left and Right emblem for the later cars.
