i need help
Questions to ask your uncle. Why is he buying it? An investment? Is it going to be kept in a garage? Driven sporadically on sunny days? If that's why he's buying it I say go for it! Limited production car- only 250 of them produced!
On the otther hand, let's assume he's buying it as a daily driver. No air conditioning. No stereo. No sound deadening. No back seat. Cloth interior. Sure, he can put all the aforementioned amenities in but at a premium! It's straight line performance is comparable to the 2003 and 2004 Mach1 in the quarter mile. You can get a 2003 Cobra for around 25,000 and have all the creature comforts plus all the power that a supercharged v8 carries with it.
My answer to your question depends on the reasons he is considering buying it. Just my take on it. Anyone else out there with a different perspective?

If performance was a factor I would pass on it for an '03 - '04 low miles Mach 1 or Cobra. If exclusivity is the main reason, you uncle will be making an excellent choice.
Is it white with black interior or white with black/camel interior?

-a Real Complete 95 SVT Cobra R

or is it a empty car with parts?
it is the carmel/tan color.....original........
and yes its a complete car with the parts.
at first i wanted him 2 get a 03-04 cobra but he wanted the cobra R.i think the main thing is he wants a car that is the same as his 65 shelby but 30 years ahead.
