I REALLY needed that BEAUTIFUL 50 degree day we had yesterday since the last month seemed to be all days in the 20's.

Detailed the car from head to toe, put a couple coats of wax on her, and then took it out for quite a while.













Unfortunately I cant drive shift and work the camera all at once so I only managed to get a few short clips on the side streets.
But it gives you a pretty good idea of the Auto, The Convertor, Sound, AND FUN FACTOR :evil:

Wish you could have been out there with me for some of the fun stuff but I need 3 hands to control this Bad Boy...

Thanks Everyone :awesomework:

There was a lot of left over sand and water from the snow melt down so the undercarriage looks like hell (right now). But I got to get a look at some of the hidden goodies under there and man I was impressed, this Cobra has got a lot of good chit under there :headbang:











I found out I have a bent inner lip on one of my rims, never knew it just happen to see it in the pic





The Cobra has been pure enjoyment so far and I cant wait for the warmer weather...

Thanks

I made that video yesterday, Mother Nature's been good to us the last couple of Sat's here in LI. After all the snow and cold we had believe me I needed it,
Hell yesterday I was actually outside with no jacket cleaning and enjoying the Cobra all day (quite a treat for late Jan in NY :awesomework: )

She stays under a 4 layer water prof cover when not in use, but in a few minutes she can be back in the sun looking all spiffy. Yesterday I finished cleaning and armoralling all the vinyl, rubber, and wire harnesses under the hood, I got to admit it looks pretty dam awesome under there now...

For that matter after the snow melt my lawn aint looking too shaby for dam near Feb :p

Thanks for the compliment Bro :awesomework:
This Cobra truly is unique, it has anything and everything you could possibly think of, and way to much for me to pass up when I bought it :headbang:

As for where it came from, I like a car with history (especially coming from the Worlds Fastest Street Lightning), and boy does this one have history. There's a very well know guy in the Mustang World, Hermann Stolzenberg's, he owns a company known as Horsepower by Hermann (HBH). This was his own personal car and he's truly considered a pioneer in the Mustang World, especially the old 5.0 years. Hell he's more considered a God according to some of the articles on him. There's articles all over the net on the guy and his accomplishments.

http://www.mustang50magazine.com/fe...989_mustang_lx_hermann_stolzenberg/index.html

He worked with PA Performance / PA Transmissions on developing a transmission/converter package for the 03-04 Cobra, my 03 Cobra was "The First Terminator" to receive the results. PA 4r70w, PI 3500 Triple Disc Lockup Stall Converter, PI Manual Valve Body, Transbrake, Electronic Over Drive, Electronic Convertor Lock Up, Chromoly Driveshaft, etc. I'd take this set up over a stick ANY DAY :awesomework:

Anyway Herman from Maryland sold it to a guy on the NJ Philly Border named Stan. He buys, builds, and sells Mustangs and has had quite a few in his past. Personally I think this Cobra was a bit much as a DD for him so he only kept it a short time and the rest is history.....
He bought it with 8800 miles on it and I bought it with 9500 miles on it :D
It now has 10,5 on it and I cant wait for the better weather :rock:
It's crazy fast, crazy loud, handles amazing, stops amazing,looks amazing, and other than it dont take the bumps to well, the car can be very docile on the street (STOCK CAMS).
I'm truly loving every minute (although I think it really does need some cats, SOB IS LOUD :p ).....

That is a beautiful Cobra. But can I make one suggestion--> You need a nice aftermarket shifter to go with that interior.

Really nice car though, something for all of us to aspire to.
