I have to look and see where i put the book,
it has everything exclusive to the SVT Cobras up until 2000
so anything needed to prove authenticity etc would be in there :dunno:
just give me an idea what you need, and I can scan it :headbang:

Granted I am going to have a busy couple of days,
and heading out of town again. We are taking the Lightning to Dearborn, Michigan up to SVT :hail:

we have to pick up some of the Cobra R's parts, they actually found some left overs, so the hood doesn't need to be repainted, it is ready to just bolt right on :headbang:

just an intro to the whole faq...something like the production numbers what was new for those years
 
This are awesome tips. I just removed the wing all together on my Cobra the other week. Now I need to fill the holes in. I personally like it without the wing. A couple of my friends thought so too. But hey not everyone has to like it that way. Just out of curiosity, do you think it'll make that much of a difference but keeping it off as far as wind tunneling goes?

I think we should all meet up with our 99/01 Cobras and take a pic of that. Kind of rare to see all 99/01 cobras with different looks.

I should have my Black 18" Saleen wheels on with Nitto D/R 305/35/18 this weekend. I can't wait to see what it's gonna look like. BTW it is a White Cobra with extremely black tinted windows. I'm hoping it's going to look good but hey everyone has chrome wheels right. Just looking and going for a different look. I'm also looking at getting a Cobra R fiberglass hood hopefully towards the end of this week. If anyone has any parts for sale or trade please let me know. Feel free to email me at [email protected]
