It's mostly my signature.

I own the "SVT Mustang Cobra Recognition Guide". 1993-2000. I have 1968/5000 signed Editions.


It has tons of tech from the people that made them.

It Was Like New Used! Really And Usually They Fudge on Condition But it Is What They Say it Was! Not a Mark on It!

But You Got Yours Signed! So Yours is Better!

The Number Was Luck of The Draw! Original Owner May Have Passed an it was an Estate Item!

It was raced at Watkins Glen, Road Atlanta, and here at Sebring.

Here it is parked next to a car hauler at Road America (Elkhart Lake, WI)

Here is the 1995 Mustang Cobra R. I bought it from a guy in Buffalo, NY. It was #113 0f 250 made (made 3-1-95).

I wanted a new one but couldn't find one for MSRP or less (I'm too cheap to pay MSRP or over). I paid $24,000 for it with 3,168 miles. I had a truck and trailer so I drove up to bring it home (March 29--some snow and big potholes in the road).



I added this sticker on the rear window.

Here is my 1995 Musrang Cobra R "Stars and Stripes" race car. It was built by Chuck Snipes and his Snipes Ford Motorsports race team. It was raced as Hacker Racing in 1996/1997 and back with Snipes in 1998/1999. The drivers were Snipes, Peter Sachs and Randy Pobst (Randy raced very successfully later). IMSA allowed "replica's" that were not real Cobra R's but a "body in white" sold to race teams (no ser# or title).

This car had model made of it by Tamiya Radio organization. I still have the model in the unopened box.


Parked near the tech shack at Road Atlanta

#21 car
I raced it at the HSR Walter Mitty in 2013.

This was me passing a Porsche 356 in T-1

Info
I sold the car to a racer who walked up and offered me twice as much as I had in it. Stuff happens and I like new projects..

I owned a 1997 Mustang Cobra. XXX


1994 Invoice
XXX
OK, I was looking for the invoice on the 1997 Cobra and found the invoice on the 1994 Cobra ($21.1K for this one). I meet Jacky at a race track in my 1991 Mustang LX with a 4:11 rear diff. He gave me his card that night. I saw the next morning that he owned four Ford dealerships . He knew I was a big Ford guy before I knew he was a big Ford guy who could call Ford. You make good friends on a race track or car show that may help you out later.
------
1997 Cobra pictures coming soon. I think it was $27K.

Anyway, I'll find the pictures of the 1997 Cobra in race red.

No, it wasn't me.

Nonetheless, I will always be a #1 Fan of these cars. They are analog cars and are very reliable. *I raced one for a few years without removing the valve covers".

Did you sell it or have someone else take it there? You said above "Here is my #21 Cobra R" so you can see why I'd make the assumption that you were there....here's the picture I took.
