Have to sell the 95 Cobra .....
My reasons for needing to get rid of the 95 Cobra is that My wife does not think I need three Mustangs. Yesterday a friend and I flew up to Philadelphia and picked up a 96 Mystic Cobra.
I had been trying for a couple of weeks to track one down in decent shape in my price range. I found one in Iowa that looked great, but the guy sold it out from under me to a local buyer. I found another one that looked promising in Florida. It had higher mileage, but was a lot cheaper. Before i did the deal, I signed up for a month of carfax reports and checked it out. The salvage title made me decide against that one. Then, Philly popped up. It had a clean carfax, with two previous owners. It looked way too nice, based on what I had been seeing, to be in my price range, but I was feeling lucky and Kharma had to strike soon. I called, It was in my range and he agreed to hold it. Now it is mine.
1996 Mystic Cobra
53,300 miles
the paint is pretty good, great for an 11 year old car.
It has a full Flowmaster exhaust, aftermarket alarm, and LoJack
It has now been Zaino'd and looks even better.
The 05 is going .... WTF? It is out in the rain for the first time in over a year. The 96 has been dried off and buffed out already ( had to drive it home from the Z job in the rain )

you can't try to trick the wife and say you are saving the 95 for one of your kids? It would be worth a try anyways, lol. My dad used that excuse lots of times, I was looking at getting a 75 Grand Prix, a 69 Charger, a 71 Impala and a 74 Duster over the years do to that excuse.
