I have to pull her out to get more pics. I have a small 2 car garage with one door. This is how it was when I bought the house. So I have the Cobra up against the side and the 06 I have to pull in on an angle. So when the eggs an shaving cream day is over I'll pull her out.

Sell them both and wait for Shelby.You'll save $$ on insurance and have a SHELBY!!!!!!!!

Quoted post

I have special insurance on the Cobra it's a little over $250.00 a year/full value coverage and no limit miles from Grundy. And for the 06 I pay around $1200.00 year so the insurance is no big deal. But your right I would have a SHELBY. My friend just purchased the "continuation" Shelby I think he paid close to $70,000 and it's worth alot more now. He got an invitation in the mail to buy this Shelby and I asked him if he could find out more info so I can lock in on it. But we will see. It's a hard decision.

Personally I would keep the Cobra b/c I feel as though you would regret it down the line. Either way though it is a good problem to have and you will make out weel whether you have those two cars or a new Shelby.

I would need to see undercariage and engine bay pixs first, to say weather to keep the 93. If you keep your O6 in show car condition, included with your Cobra, Grundy with accept it, cost depends on your location and $ value. Mine costs $1178 for both, Michigan adds in fees. I would keep the GT untill I had the Shelby in my name.

My Cobra won best in show in a L.I. Mustang show. The car is in showroom condition. I won't even let the sun hit it because I know it would fade the moldings. My Cobra has Grundy Ins. My 06 is Allstate. And I am in NY.

Scott do NOT sell that Cobra :nono:

- that was my dream car for many many years and the shape you have it in? INSTANT collectible - that car is gorgeous and I guarantee years down the line, you will kick yourself for selling it.

Last of the Foxes and first of the new breed of Cobras - don't sell her!! :worship:

I think you just convinced me. I always thought that but I guess I needed to hear it from someone else.

In my opinion it would be a crime to sell that Cobra. But if push comes to shove and you do sell let me know so I can get a second job and buy it.

If you want my opinion, I think you should stop rooting for the Yankees.

Nice looking cars, by the way.

Well it's true I am a Yankee fan, but the name is not for them. It's just about being that I'm a Yankee from NY.

Just kiddin ya. My being originally from Cleveland explains the rivalry. That '93 is beautiful and rare. Keep it. For the amount of money you'll lose trading in the cars and the extra you'll pay for the Shelby, you could supercharge the '06 and address the suspension and brakes, too. Then you'll have a car even more rare than the Shelby...an original "Scott" mustang.

Seriously, my '05 is my 8th mustang and I can always justify upgrading. If you can afford it and your not hurting your kid's future or anything like that, then drive what you want.

Life is too short.

What he said! I've always loved those Cobras...keep it. Then make your '06 faster, and you have both 'Stangs.

Thanks. I spoke with my dealer/manager/friend today and she said they won't even have allocation until Sept. 06 on the Shelby.
