Mustang nut from Central Texas checking in

[dpscoupe]

Hello all! Figured I'd stop lurking & maybe make a few posts here & there. I've been on forums for years now & I have to say that this is probably the friendliest & most helpful one I've ever come across.

I acquired an 03 Cobra earlier this year whos paint is in horrid condition for the caliber of car. Major swirls, scratches, RIDS, water spots, & bug/bird etchings. It was keeping me awake at night & giving me nightmares when I did manage to sleep! I've never had a car that couldn't be slicked up by hand polishing, so I was a little out of my element. Luckily, one of my friends is a fellow Cobra owner & has been using autogeek for a few years & kindly turned me on to them.

Then I started reading. Then my wallet started getting lighter & shelves were filling up with products & pads & a PC 7424XP. Now, hopefully within the next couple of weeks, I can get started on the Cobra paint resurrection. She is on jackstands right now getting a new clutch & a trans rebuild. As soon as I'm done wrenching on that (I'm a former Ford tech & my primary car passion is spinning wrenches!), its time to make her look good again!

Here are a couple of pics of my current stable. The black/white one I've owned since 1999 & the C10 is a byproduct of my first automotive obsession being 67-72 GM trucks. Sadly, this is the only pic I could easily find of it & she is WAY too dirty right now to be photographed.

A new detail thread on the Cobra to follow soon, & I know I'll have questions along the way.

That is one sweet ride! My boss has a soft spot for Fairlane's, so I sent him a link to your cardomain page.

The 93 does indeed have a 2001 Cobra 4.6 4V under the hood. Something a little off the beaten path! That car has the mod book thrown at it.....

The 03 just has exhaust & a 3.1 pulley on the stock blower. She has 134k on the clock, so not going to get wild.
