Wow Arin I caught up with this thread yesterday and I can't belive you traded your cobra off for a bullit !
I'm Glad that you got the Bullit though take good care of it ,like your cobra it's a special car but I can tell you from a older persons point of view years later when you look back your going to miss the cobra
Everyone that I know regrets selling the first car they ever bought but when they talk about it ...it always puts a smile on there face ,most of us have fond memories of the first one we ever owned .IF you can keep an eye on it ,something tells me you might want it back later.

I haven't even sold her yet and I'm regretting it 
Shes at the shop right now, awaiting (possibly) some original V8 II exhaust mani's so that I can get her into sellable condition. She just had her steerin knuckle fixed.
This car has been good to me, I only hope that the next owner is better to her than i was. you know.. despite all the problems she had with the motor swap, the first accident, the exhaust situatiopn, and even when my steering blew out, she never once left me stranded. I was always able to limp home somehow, some way.
I'll never forget her. And I'll be sure to have a Bullitt/Cobra II photoshoot before shes gone

The II is home. I ordered some of the correct exhaust manifolds off of ebay for around $50, still waiting for him to tell me how much shipping is. I plan on running those mani's and some custom done midpiping (i found this really cool bendy stuff made for exhaust. If you guys have heard of the reenmachine on Stangnet then you might be interested to know that he used it on that car too) and bolt that all up to my OLD glasspacks and sidepipes 
My dad, seeing the car again, wants to keep it lol. At least I know he's on my side when the time to debate with mother comes along. He said if I can get it running reliably and safely he'll use it for grocery runs around town and hold onto it for me until I get back from college
all the while using the Bullitt for my daily driving

I'm saving the better picture ideas for when my dad and I take both stangs up to Can*ada (can ya duh lol) college. There are some great views from the hillside parking lots up there
Glad to hear the cobra might stay around for a bit
And the pic's of the stangs Arin... very cool
Just remember when you bring the stang up to Canada it's not mustang it's Moosestang
There very easy to spot instead of the running pony there's a running moose in the grill.
