Shown By Appointment&  For Sale By Owner Call Mike  631-339-0399

1993 Ford Mustang Cobra Clone fully restored to better than new condition.The final and last year for the fox body mustangs.This car started  out life as 2.3liter automatic Mustang LX once I got the car home I proceed to  strip it down to nothing but a bare shell. Every part was remove and evaluated  for either restoration or replacement. The chassis shell was installed on a  rotisserie and sent out for blasting. Once back from blasting and rust spots  were cut out and repaired with steel. The front radiator support was replaced as  well as the section where the battery sits. Steeda full length sub frame  connectors where than welded into place as well as fully welding all the seams  in each torque box. Since this was a four cylinder car there was no damage to  the torque boxes. All critical suspension pick up points were also reinforced  and fully welded for added strength. Moving up to the front of the car all spot  welded seams were fully welded for strength. A weak point with all fox body  mustangs are the strut towers flexing epically with coil over struts. So all  spot welds inside the strut towers were welded and reinforced. I used roughly  10lbs of welding wire to build this car the right way. So after all the welding  was complete the car was sent off to the body shop for paint.At the body  shop the car had an epoxy primer sprayed on the entire car that means the  undercarriage was also epoxy primed. Any dents and holes were either pulled or  welded no plastic body filler was used. Before painting a rust preventer was  applied to the inside of all the frame rails and anything not able to be  painted. When most people restore or repaint a car, hey usually don't treat the  under carriage with much attention. Not this car the entire under side is epoxy  premiered and base coat clear coated to match the rest of the car. The color  chosen was Ford Moonlight Blue Metallic with a little extra metallic mixed in.  Since the whole car was stripped clean all the door jams and window channels  were painted just like new. We also removed the antenna location on the fender  and weld it closed. A powered antenna was installed under the dashboard. Since I was going for a Cobra Clone I went with the best kit on the market which  was the Cervini's kit. I also went with their 2" cowl fiberglass hood. All  fiberglass components was prepared correctly I had them baked in an oven prior  to paint to make sure jell coat was sent so I would have no cracks in the paint  in the summer heat. The trouble some hood prop rod was replaced with  nice gas struts to support the hood. The front bumper cover is new OEM and I was  able to locate a brand new in the box 1993 OEM headlight header panel from  Florida. No aftermarket crap which does not fit properly. For installing the  cobra grille I fabricated a fiberglass retainer just like the original one to  hold it in place. That means no double sided tape to hold it in place. All the  headlights and fog lights are replaced with brand new clear lights and amber  turn signals and all light bulbs are brand also. Moving forward all the body  moldings were replaced with OEM Ford and painted off the car in fact all body  parts were painted off the car. Fenders are original since they were in great  shape as well as the doors, ll original. The hatch was replaced due to rust on  the underside where the lock was. I was also able to keep the front inner fender  wells installed on the front of the car. This was not easy to do since the front  and rear wheel are the same size so all the fenders were rolled for tire  clearance before paint.The car got a brand new windshield and hatch  window as well as brand new side quarter windows. All window trim was either  restored or replaced as well as the cowl is new and the side mirrors are  restored. Both mirrors are power mirrors. The door/hatch locks are brand new as  well as the ignition cylinder is also brand new all keys match. Also, eplaced  were the door handles with new metal ones not cheap plastic ones. New power lock  actuators were installed as well as a keyless entry system. The car does not  have an alarm to much trouble if something goes wrong with them. Also installed  all new weather stripping and door seals. For the rear section of the car I  spent a lot of time to make sure that the rear cobra bumper cover was straight  and in line with the taillights which were restore to new condition. Inside the  rear wheels bed liner was used to seal and protect that area. It also makes for  good sound absorption and road noise isolation. Bed liner was used thru out the  car in places that needed protection from either the road or jacking the car up.The entire inside of the car was full and painstaking restored. I started  with installing dynamat everywhere inside the car. The roof is also coated with  dynamat and then I installed two layers of insulation. There is no tin can sound  anymore if you get stuck in the rain. The carpet was replaced with the deluxe  style with the extra insulation on the underside. For the doors new deluxe door  panels were installed along with dynamat. This is the quietest mustang interior  you will find in a 1993 mustang. All the plastic interior panels were  restored/refinished using OEM primer and paint. The dash, enter console, nd  rear plastic panels were all redone. I installed a headliner which was plastic  backed not cardboard back so it will not droup. The heater box was dissembled  and restored completely along with a new heater core. The car is set for AC but  I did not install it but wish I had. All the wiring and components are still in  the car less the condenser on the front. The instrument cluster was updated with  the 140mph speedometer I looked for a new one but could not find one. The  mileage on the speedo does not reflect the actual miles on the car. All new  light bulbs were installed in dash. The stereo is a pioneer unit it has  Bluetooth and hands free calling. It also has CD player and uses the premium  sound system ford installed. That being said the Ford amp was used and all new  Sound Ordnance speakers were installed six total in the stock locations. This is  a stock style sound system no huge subwoofer and amps. I even made sure lights  in the stereo matched the rest of the car in green. Some updates were installed  as I said before keyless entry and Bluetooth are installed. Also a Homelink auto  dimming mirror as well as heated front seats. The seats in the car are Corbeau  racing seats which are very comfortable and they recline. To complete the  seating in the car the rear seat covers were replaced with matching ones from  Corbeau. The seat belts are also new and in black to match the seats. There are  new floor mats for the front and rear to protect the new carpet. A new deluxe  rear cargo carpet, long with dynamat installed to finish the rear hatch  section.This car has a very special suspension system it is a cross  between a road race and street car setup. I have been racing and building  mustang for road racing since 1990. I've raced NASA, MRA and PDA and have  always been very completive. Since all of the suspension components are race  proven I changed out the Delrina and Poly bushings for a high performance rubber  bushing. The rear suspension includes a pan hard bar and a torque arm along with  weight jacker control arms. This rear suspension was adopted by ford for the 5th  gen mustang. The front has a custom modified K-member with all the proper  correction to make the mustang handle. There are custom made front tubular lower  control arms which allow me to run 265 tires all around. This car is capable of  running with Porsches and Viper's on a road race track and just as happy driving  to a car show. The car is NOT harsh or bouncy it is one of the nicest riding fox  body mustangs I ever been in. This car was a two year project all parts of this  car have be touched so as to make the car as perfect as possible. My  main goal was to create mustang that gives modern day super car handling and  ride quality wrapped in a 1993 Mustang. I always dreamed of a mustang like this  and I finally created one only better than I had hoped...Don't just get a car  cause it has been detailed and looks shiny and pretty get one that has been pain  staking built and updated to modern day performance, ot just a shiny engine  compartment and wheels Engine: 1993 Ford 331 V8Engine work:1.
