ABSOLUTELY MY FAVORITE BEST LOOKIN FOX EVER!!!
Thank you!
@@ShelbyFlyerTHATS SOMETHING I TRY TOO EXPLAIN TOO THE YOUNGER GUYS LOL THE 93 COBRA IS THE START OF SVT SO LIKE YOU SAID ITS A PIECE OF HISTORY.
@@ShelbyFlyerALSO HAVE A QUESTION THAT YOU MAY KNOW LOL WHAT DOES THE DATE ON THE TRUNK LATCH STAND FOR LOL YOU WOULD THINK AFTER OWNING MY 93 COBRA FOR ALMOST 30 YEARS LOL I WOULD KNOW WHAT THAT DATE STANDS FOR.
@@anthonylaudano9435 I don’t know that one. What is the date listed?
Love the car! Things were so much simpler in 1993.
I've owned 2 exactly like this one, but had to sell both:(. I shall one day have my third and final!:). Thanks so much for showing this beautiful gem to us!:)
My wife bought a "93 T-Bird off the lot; they had a Teal Cobra in the showroom. Told the salesperson, hey let's make a deal, and you can sell 2 cars today. He laughed at me! Picked up a '93 black GT 12/10/93 - still have her!
That’s awesome you still own it!
I sure do envy your collection... all the memorabilia is amazing to see also, thanks for sharing your collection with all the other mustang fans.
Thanks Flash!
I can just “feel” the 90s in this video! You know this was the video that made me buy my 93 Cobra. It was a excellent car etc.
But I didn’t have the money for both, and when my dream car popped up (2003 Cobra), I had to sell it for that one.. 😑
None the less I still got to experience the nostalgia and the memories of growing up in my dads 1990 Gt.
Great video man! As always 👊🏽
Thanks! The 93 Cobra is a neat piece of SVT history from the beginning!
@@ShelbyFlyerMAN YOU MUST BE GETTING HOUNDED TO SELL YOUR TEAL 93 COBRA LOL I RECENTLY GOT OFFERED 70 GRAND FOR MY VIBRANT RED 93 COBRA. 😅
@@anthonylaudano9435 The values have gotten nuts on the 93s!
MAN WHERE DID YOU GET ALL OF YOUR SVT PAPERWORK LOL I HAVE A BLACK SVT JACKET THAT MY MOM BOUGHT ME BACK IN THE 90S AND I WISH I BOUGHT A 1/10TH SCALE 93 COBRA DIECAST CAR LOL I DO HAVE A COUPLE 93 COBRA MODELS IN THERE BOX THAT I WILL NEVER OPEN.
Love your car! I own a 93 Reef Blue Metallic LX 5.0 (1177 made) coupe myself.
Awesome car Calvin! Congrats!
Awesome!!♥️ always loved the teal 93 Cobra
Brian Gasman Thanks Brian!
BACK IN THE 90S FOX BODY'S WERE EVERYWHERE BUT TODAY THERE NOT MANY LEFT ON THE ROAD AND I REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME WHEN I SAW MY BUDDY'S NEW VIBRANT RED 93 COBRA AND I SAID IN THE FUTURE I WILL HAVE ONE AND MANY YEARS LATER I HAVE MY 20 THOUSAND ORIGINAL MILE VIBRANT RED 93 COBRA AND I DON'T THINK I WOULD EVER SELL THE CAR.
One of my all time favorite Mustangs. Yours is THE color for a '93 SVT. Lol. Very fine. Thanks for sharing.
Most today do not appreciate that it's not just about hp and numbers. It's about the total package, the complete experience. The 1993 Cobra delivers on that very well. The '93 Camaro's and Firebirds weren't all they were hyped to be. A little more hp, from an engine 48 cubic inches larger! Hoh hum....
Make mine Mustang!
Thanks Gary! I feel the same way about the 93. It’s cool that it’s the birth of the SVT Cobra.
I love that car. It was the 1993 Teal Cobra which most led me to choose Bright Atlantic Blue when I purchased my 1998 Cobra, which I still have today. If I ever buy a Fox Body, this car is at the top of my list. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks wyorca! That’s totally cool you still have your 98! 🤟
@@ShelbyFlyer It's not as clean as your 93 (it spend a few years as a daily driver) but I'm working to get it as close as I can within reason. I truly appreciate the love and dedication you have to these cars. As you say - they are a trip through time.
@@ShelbyFlyerMAN I AM VERY SURPRISED THAT YOU DON'T START ALL YOUR CARS AND JUST RUN THEM A LITTLE LOL I MADE THE MISTAKE WITH MY 92 Z28 AND I HAD IT SITTING FOR A VERY LONG TIME THINKING I WAS DOING A GOOD THING BUT I HAD TO HAVE THE FUEL DRAINED AND NOW ALL 8 OF MY CARS GET STARTED AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH AND GET TAKEN ON A SHORT DRIVE JUST TO BRING EVERYTHING UP TO TEMPATURE LOL WHO KNOWS MAYBE YOU ARE BUT IF NOT LOL I WOULD START THEM AND MAYBE MOVE THEM A LITTLE BIT TOO AVOID FLAT SPOTIN THE TIRES.
@@ShelbyFlyerI ASSUME YOU STILL HAVE YOUR 93 COBRA AND DO YOU PLAN ON BUYING ANOTHER MUSTANG ANYTIME SOON.
@@anthonylaudano9435 It comes down to too many cars and not enough time. Some of my cars have gone months if not years between starts. They do sit in a climate controlled garage though.
I could spend a week looking at this collection. The 96 holds a special place in my Heart. Speaking of one off vehicles, in 96 Ford did produce a dozen or so 5.0 GT cars that were released in the Detroit area. Not sure how you'd track one down but you know how special that was for a pushrod motor being released in a 96 Mustang.
Your Mother should of swallowed Thank you sir! As far as I know, all of the 96 GTs and Cobras received the 4.6L.
@@ShelbyFlyer yup, a select few did get a 302 pushrod motor. They're in the Detroit area, less than a dozen I think were ever sold. That would be a rare find indeed.
Your Mother should of swallowed Very cool! Thanks for teaching me something!
Miss my Mystichrome. Glad I caught a glimpse of yours on the lift
They are cool cars! I miss my previous two drivers! This one only has 500 miles on it and my 96 Mystic is also a non driver with 400 miles.
@@ShelbyFlyer amazing. I purchased my coupe in 2004 with only 900 miles on her. Sold in 2007 with 30,000 and got exactly what I paid for her. Wish I still had it!
Lets not forget the SVO performance package which gave birth to the SVT.
Actually very happy that the 93 cobra didn't have abs. I had a 88 Lincoln mark VII with abs and hard late breaking in a corner could send you into a ditch. The abs pulses were hard and screwed up the balance of the car.
They made approximately 4,494 of these. They came with Crane/Ford stamped 1.7 factory roller rocker arms as well.
Good info Luke!
What An Amazing Stable!! Back In 00' l Was Looking At A BLK On BLK 93' Cobra With A Sunroof & A 96' Mystic Cobra. I Bought The Mystic & Still Own It!! I Wish That I Woulda Bought Both!!
Thank you kindly! The 96 Mystic is an iconic piece of SVT history... congrats!
The 93 Cobra had roller rockers, 70mm MAF, underdrive pulleys, and hypereutectic cast pistons vs forged. Brake horsepower was closer to 270. I’ve seen people burn up pistons on these cars from too much boost. Springs and control arms were test pieces for the ‘94 Mustang.
That’s good info... thanks! 🍻
@ShelbyFlyer I RECENTLY SAW A SET OF 93 COBRA FLOOR MATTS THAT SOLD FOR 2 GRAND FROM A WRECKED BLACK 93 COBRA
Beautiful Cobra. Great job on the video.
Douglas Hayworth Thanks Douglas!
@ShelbyFlyer LOL MAN I THINK I MENTIONED THIS IN THE PAST LOL I LET MY 92 ANIVERSREY CAMARO Z28 SIT FOR A LONG TIME AND NOT RUN THE CAR AND I THOUGHT I WAS DOING A GOOD THING BUT IT WAS THE OPPOSITE AND I HAD TO HAVE THE TANK DROPPED AND DRAINED OF THE OLD FUEL LOL SO MY POINT IS I START ALL 8 CARS AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH AND TURN ON EVERYTHING AND I EVEN MOVE THEM A COUPLE FEET SO I WON'T FLAT SPOT THE TIRES. JUST A LITTLE OF HELPFUL ADVICE AND FORGIVE ME IF I MENTIONED IT IN THE PAST LOL I AM 51 AND MY MEMORY ISN'T THE BEST.
Nice! Fun to watch it all and especially to see the drive. And good to see the beautiful car getting warmed up and exercised.
Tim Decker Thanks Tim! I rarely drive it... it’s always fun to get it out for a cruise!
@@ShelbyFlyerMAN BESIDES THE 93 COBRA R THE TEAL GREEN CARS ARE BRINGING A LOT OF MONEY BUT I DOUBT IT THAT YOU WILL EVER SELL THE 93 COBRA.
Exceptional collection. I am trying to buy a 93 Cobra now. I am a 3rd Gen Trans Am collector but must have a 93 Cobra. Question: I am building a new shop. Can you tell me about your floor? I know the technology. How is the toughness of the floor and if you will, cost per square foot, materials you used, did you do yourself? floor prep? Mine will be new construction. Advice? Beautiful floor.
Thanks Joey! Good luck in your 93 hunt. The floor is metallic epoxy with a polyurethane top coat. I had it done 6 years ago and still looks great. Couldn’t tell you the cost. I did a lot all at once building and finishing the garage.
I have a Red Cobra. 105k miles. I'm the 3rd owner and have ever document from the 1st and second owner. I have a huge stack of paperwork and all mailings from Svt that was sent to the owner.
That’s awesome Toby! I love original paperwork!
Love the 93 Cobra so much so that I own one. Lol Just made my first real big collector purchase. A 2014 Shelby GT 500 Super Snake signature series. Number 9 of 50 ever made.
Chris Walsh Congrats on both cars! 👍
@@ShelbyFlyer I love my 93 cobra.Iam so torn do I cash in and sell my 93.I doubt it. I think the street version's that are left in the condition that your 93 and my car are only on the way up to big numbers.
@@ShelbyFlyer Time is everything and for 17.500 bucks back in 05.Today my car is 40grand plus.
I would kill to have your mustang Collection. I would love to at least ride in a couple of your mustang
Thank you sir!
Dream fox for sure 🔥
My dad had a '93 5.0 with a 347 stroker kit. I miss that damn car!
Best collection ive seem so far. I miss hows the doors pop on the foxes when you open them. Should have kept all my fox bodys
Thanks David!
but those goddamn sagging map pockets!!
Still nothing by today's standards, but these always impressed me because of the bogus 235 horse rating. I got to drive one many years ago, and the owner showed me dynojet sheets of it with 225-230 at the wheels, and more wheel torque than the crank rating. That underrating trait was something that the Cobra R and the Terminator shared lol
Also, sorry I keep commenting your vids. Good content. Can't help it lol
Thanks Nicholas! Yes, the 93 had good power for the advertised “235” number! Like you said, same with the Terminators. I’ve had 3 Mystichrome Terminator verts... all stock. They all felt north of 400 hp.
Great information. I have had my Teal Cobra since November 30 1994. I love it. I have 177K miles on it. I am on the second clutch. I have only lowered mine. Engine is 100% stock. I get lots of looks. I do have one question, is your head liner like a plastic material of a fuzzy material? Looks beautiful, keep it that way.
Thanks David! Congrats on owning one of these iconic Mustangs. Of course teal metallic is the sexiest of the 3 by far! As for my headliner... I’ll have to look next time I’m in the garage. Mine is original... I don’t recall what it looks like. I was driving my 2020 today, so that is fresh in my mind.
@@ShelbyFlyer Your collection is so nice and the garage as well. I also own a 2014 Shelby Super Snake convertible. It is Red with white stripes. That car turns heads and is so fun to drive, but there is something about the Cobra...... Thanks for the video.
@@davekiehl Thanks David! Congrats on your Super Snake!
This sure brings back some great memories. Mine was exactly like yours with the exception of the interior, mine being cloth rather than leather. I paid $18,500 for it in 1993 and sold it, (like an idiot.....so regrettable) just over a year later and got just a little bit more than I paid. I still have the original "certificate of authenticity" but would really like to get it to it's current owner if possible. Any ideas on how I can make that happen would be appreciated.
That’s cool Michael! The best way is probably to get the word out in the Facebook groups and forums that cater to these cars. Do you have Facebook? What is the VIN? I can help spread the word.
I have a NOS set of those accessory Ford Cobra front mats just like yours that are shown at the 2:50 mark...still in the Ford box, bought them from my local Ford dealer back in the mid 90's...but what I should've kept was the black/grey cloth 1993 Cobra that I had back then too...17K miles, Gatorbacks still on it, mint and bone stock( I did put Ford 5300-C lowering springs and 3:73 gears in it but that was all). I paid a whopping $16,700 for it back in 1995. Dang.
That’s cool you still have the NOS mats!
It’s my dream car. Truly a lucky man
Thanks Albert! 🍻
Had a 93 in high school.. Would love to have another!! Nice Car!!
That’s a cool ass high school car! 🤟
@@ShelbyFlyerSO YOUR 2020 GT500 HOW ARE YOU LIKING IT LOL HAVE YOU HAD ANY MAJOR PROBLEMS.
@@anthonylaudano9435 Absolutely bad ass Mustang! Awesome track car! Love it! You’ll find some videos on my channel of some issues I’ve had to resolve.
@@ShelbyFlyer DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT DATE STANDS FOR ON THE LATCH ON THE HATCHBACK
@@anthonylaudano9435 I do not.
1986 and up had 8.8 rear end not 8.5 and i believe cobras also had 1.7 roller rockers from factory,love the video btw
I sold my Teal 93 to the founder of the MCA. Ken and Marilyn Newcombe from Georgia. It had 2300 or 3200 miles, original Oil, air filters Battery, Tires etc. Production number and copy of the cert is in my back room. The developed the judgment roles book with my car back on 2003 I believe. I miss this car. Sold it to fiund a historic redevelopment hotel in Woodland CA. Worth a small fortune now. Just miss it..
They are an iconic piece of SVT history!
Sure do miss my 93 teal cobra I bought new.
I still have the window sticker and all the other paperwork
And a set of keys.
Last time I checked it was sold in Florida with 60.000 miles.
Walt Lacey I’ll bet Walt! It would have been nice to keep the iconic car, but it’s not always possible. If you want, share the VIN with me and I’ll post it in a 93 Facebook group. If the current owner sees the post, he would love to get the original paperwork.
One of my good friends a down Mustang Guy built his $300,000 plus house on 2 1/2 acres with the help when he sold he’s 3b house and his # 1993 5.0 Cobra R with all papers match....miss seeing that car around !!..
Cool cars!
I had a black cobra sold it back in 2001. It had over 100k but very clean! I wish I would’ve held on to it now that the value is going up. I own a 88 GT 5 speed Convertible now that I plan on keeping.
Nice cobra.!
Values on 93 Cobras have gone crazy! Your 88 sounds nice. I have an 89.
@@ShelbyFlyer yes it came with the original window sticker. Has 56k on it. Had to do a auto check and car fax to make sure it hadn’t rolled over.
Great video as always goose. Beautiful car brother
You have some beautiful cobras. I'm partial to the 93 only because I have a teal one like thislol
Thanks Gary! Congrats on YOUR teal 93! They have been seriously shooting up in value!
Love the short shift. Except the 45hundred first gear. Mind as well start off in 2nd😊
My favorite car, my dream car, and my long term goal is to own a 93 Cobra SVT and maybe I’ll win the lottery someday and I’m gonna buy 2 of them and might buy 3 or 4 of them!!! But that’s a dream. But hopefully I’ll get to have one someday
The 93 Cobra is a cool piece of SVT history… the 1st SVT Mustang!
Nice to have such a great and immaculate collection of cars. Looking forward to the new addition of the carbon fiber gt500. Do you have any indication of when you will get it?
Thanks Gregg! I’m hoping it gets delivered to the dealer tomorrow.
Beautiful fox’s,,, thanks for the video
Thanks Chris!
@@ShelbyFlyerALSO BACK IN 2000S I WASN'T REALLY A FAN OF THE 2000 COBRA R AND I ALWAYS SAID THAT THEY WOULD BE VALUABLE AND I WAS SO CORRECT AND I LOVE TOO HAVE A 2000 R.
@@anthonylaudano9435 The 00R is one of my all time favorites!
great video i love the fox body forf should bring it back it whould sell like hot cakes and this color his sick what a buty love your garage and collection that his my dream to have one day a showroom garage whit a car colection good for you brother
Thank you very kindly! 🍻
Beautiful Car Tim! I remember those days! I had a new 1993 GT and then the new 1994 GT. Good to see u friend. Getting closer on ur TP 500? I would think the stripes would be painted by now 😉
Cody C Thanks Cody! My CFTP is 100% done... just need it to ship!
ShelbyFlyer AWESOME TIM!!! I’m excited for u sir!! Thanks for this video! It sure brings back memories sir! I’ll send u a message on the forum, I need to visit with u soon please. Thanks 😊
That’s funny, the guy who originally bought your car in 93, traded in a Firebird for it! Great trade up I’d say. Such a legend of a car!
How do you know that…?
Beautiful Cobra!! There’s a guy in my neighborhood with a vibrant red 93’ cobra and he drives it every weekend. Never see these.
Yah my vibrant red 93 cobra.Doesn't get driven enough.20thousand original miles.Mint condition
Nice! I had a 94.
Thanks Lloyd! I have a 94 as well, but it’s not a driver. It only has 140 miles on it.
What's that car worth? I understand you'd never sell it I'm just curious what it's worth compared to late 60 early 70 cars.
Out of all of my Mustangs, this one has appreciated the quickest. It is approaching $50k in value, which has surprised the hell out of me.
@@ShelbyFlyer wow that's a lot, exceeding a lot of late 60 early 70 muscle car values.
I'd take the 2020 GT500 the one you sold or the track pack over everything in your garage combined lol.
I have a 2019 GT but the Shelbys are more than I can afford currently, maybe in a few years if they keep making them.
@@Imprisoned1995 The 93 Cobra was a 1-year only car and the birth of the SVT Cobra... I think that has a lot to do with the skyrocketing prices. Yes, my 2020 CFTP GT500 is on an entirely different level of performance... it’s frigg’n CRAZY! Get one when you can. I think they will remain the highest horsepower ICE Mustang ever!
@@ShelbyFlyer I work at a steel mill and my wife is a RN I'll get one when my daughter is out of school.
I'd get one like the one you sold, six figures for the track pack version I could never afford lol, good for you man.
You have a beautiful collection of mustangs. I understand keep the 93 stock, it's too valuable, but the early 90 fox body's with classic flow masters NOTHING sounds better.
I have a Borla Atak catback on my 2019 and everyone tells me how awesome it sounds, but it doesn't touch the Fox Body Era with flows.
@@Imprisoned1995 My 95 “2-top” convertible Cobra came with flowmasters... they do sound good!
Great VLOG about a beautiful car....
Very nice Tim,
Great job on the video and nice collection buddy.
Hard to believe someone actually put a thumbs down, some people eh.
Colin.
Colin McF Thanks Colin! Yes, some people are kinda funny that way.
And it still has Goodyear Gatorbacks!!!!! I've still got a set of P245/50VR16 Gatorbacks that were on my '88 T-Bird Turbo. But they're too dryrotted to use :(
Yuppers... the car is still rocking its original 92 date-coded tires. They are in surprisingly good shape for as old as they are. All of my Mustang Cobras but one have their original tires.
Hey how are you doing i just start watching your RUclips channel i just love your cobra collection im a big fan of cobra mustang hopefully one day I will have one too loved the channel god bless
Thanks Fred! All is well here... hope all is well with you too. Thanks for watching!
Great vid, Tim! 93 looks awesome, man. 👍 Glad to see it got out on good behavior!!! 😜😁
IrwinMFletcher Thanks Kris!
@@ShelbyFlyer I remember when I signing the paperwork to buy my 93 cobra.I said to the owner that going to regret this in the future when they really go up in value. For my vibrant red 93 cobra with just 19thousand original miles cost me 17.500bucks.Today in 2020 I been offered 40grand and I am not going sell it until it hits big numbers. I think in a year or 2 the examples left in the condition like ours will hit 75grand and up. haven't been wrong yet.Will see. Beautiful a Teal Green 93 cobra.The floor mats are crazy valuable.I don't use them.lol Nice cobra brother.
@@anthonylaudano9751 Thanks Anthony! Congrats on money well spent getting your 93! The values have seriously shot up on these cars! 😱
@@ShelbyFlyer Countless times when I have my 93 cobra out .I get the question is this a real 93 cobra.Lol yes.I kinda wish Ford did not sell the body parts to convert there GT or LX into a Fabra.Kinda like how Shelby American is with the super snake parts.It is pretty much impossible to clone a super snake I wish SVT was the same. Now it is FORD racing
@@ShelbyFlyer Back in 93 they were fast but today not so much. I honestly don't care that my 93 cobra isn't really that fast but it is the history. I knew back in the day you were looking at history.
Man you have a dream car collection sir 🫡 and love how your knowledge about specs and history of each car love
@@MrMr2626 Thanks! 🍻
LOVE. THEM. ALL. 💙💙💙
Right, take all those other stang's to a car show and they won't garner (hell of a collection btw) the same attention as that Fox.
"Turns out it was a good investment" amen!

Nice vid on a great car!! But i just have to say .. I'm loving that garage floor man!!! That looks fantastic!!!
Keneo Fugotti Thanks Keneo! It’s metallic epoxy. I wanted it to look like water.
@@ShelbyFlyer One thing I can say from past experience is that you have to start the car's often if there just sitting.
@@ShelbyFlyer Like I said before people that said why do you buy this car.IT IS A GREAT INVESTMENT.
@@ShelbyFlyer The next SVT car too ski rocket is the TERMINATOR.
@@ShelbyFlyer I saw recently from a great source of information that a stock 93 cobra layed down 222hp and 300tq too the tire.So yes there more like 275hp at the crank.
My 1st car was an 81 LX 4 cylinder that was a crappy faded yellow and steel wheels with no hubcaps. It got wrecked.Wish i still had it.
My first car was a metallic brown 4-banger Mustang... loved that car! I sold it when I bought my 89 GT vert... the guy that bought it totaled it.
Beautiful car one of my dream car's I'll get one soon tired of waiting 💀🦂💀
Thank you kindly Jose!
@@ShelbyFlyer I had the same exact 93 cobra, Minus the Sunroof - Until it was stolen, stripped, and burned... They stripped to the frame - I have the dealer brochure and certificate - Great looking Cobra
@@Kyle-sv2zu Wow! Sorry that happened!
This will be the first 100k production foxbody mustang. 1 Rare color 2. Nobody paid for sunroofs back in the day. 3. Sought after cobra
Beautiful
Thank you!
My first car in 1988 was a 1981 Mustang, orange 4 cly auto, not fast. It would be cool to have another Fox body someday.
I'd like to see one pf these parked next to a 93 Reef Blue Metallic car so I could see the difference in the colors.
For a long time I though the colors were the ssme
Teal was half reef blue and half ranger green I believe. Popular Bitd like the Camaro had.
Great car and great collection. I’m curious with such diverse collection why no GT350?
John Strah I have a 2020 GT500 CFTP car coming. It is like a GT350R on steroids! Car is complete and awaiting shipping.
ShelbyFlyer Yep, the new gt500 cftp is a great car without a doubt.
Just seems that a 350R is a missing piece to a great collection.
So, I have to ask.. why did you purposefully blur the shot of the taillight?
Computerfly If it’s the shot I’m thinking of, I used Portrait Mode on my iPhone 11 Pro, which blurs the distant background for a cool effect.
Sexy looks just like the one I raced with my 93 fox except mine ate the other 93 cobra left it in the dust amazing what better heads and a carburetor can do my favorite color is the corral blue teal
You changed your 93 to a carbureted setup?
One of the most reliable cars in the garage yet he doesn’t drive it hard 🤷🏼♂️ gotta respect that
I have other Mustangs I hammer-on. This one I pull out for an occasional exercise drive, but mostly just preserve it. It hasn’t left my garage in quite a few months now... I need to get it out!
@@ShelbyFlyer post up another video when you do! People like to watch this stuff. I had mine out yesterday and today. It’s a show car, but I still drive it to the store and stuff when I want. I love driving this thing, I love the 90s in general 😉. What do you use to film? Cell phone, with a mount? I wanted to start doing daily vlogs.
@@NextLevelTruth Thank you kindly! I use an iPhone 11 Pro and a GoPro 360 Max now. This video was shot with my old iPhone X.
Man, I sure do love that color !!!
Joe Black Thanks! I am a big fan of the teal metallic! I like cars that pop and grab your attention.
@@ShelbyFlyer Very curious how many miles and what did you pay.Reason I am asking I have a vibrant red 93 all original with just 20thousand miles.Back in 05 with with about a thousand miles less on it.I payed 17.500 bucks and there going up in value fast.
@@ShelbyFlyer I honestly think in ten years or less in low mileage shape and original shape these cobras could Crack 100grand.
@@ShelbyFlyer I agree back in the 90s they were fast today not so much. Friend's say too me often you have 2 super snake's and a gt500 with big power.The 93 must feel slow.I am a collector and I look at the history of the 93 cobras are awesome.
Anthony Laudano Exactly! You get it Anthony... the 93 SVT Cobra is an icon piece of history.
How many miles is on that SVT? It is sweet for sure.
12k. We drove it and a couple others to a big Mustang car show today. The original tires are doing great!
ohh got to be carefull with those old tires,dont want to replace em they original!
Yes! I take it easy on the old tires.
That’s my dream car
It’s a cool icon car... birth of the SVT Cobra. Thanks for the reply!
The 1984-86 SVO mustang came 5 lug
Love the video. I have a Teal 93 cobra as well on my channel.
Thank you kindly! Congrats on having a teal 93 yourself! The prices have been going through the roof on these cars!
You've got one of the finest collections, but it's missing an SVO.
Yup! But I’ve experienced them and turbo coupes. Really wasn’t a fan. The motors seemed to have limitations early too.
@@theminuteman2251 no doubt, those cars were slow. But growing up poor and driving the SVO at 15 years old was cool. Turbo spool, 4 wheel disc, hand pumped seat bolsters, etc. I've got a ton of cool stuff now but try to find a clean SVO. They dont exist where I'm at. Let me know if you find one.
I have an 86 svo and it's pretty quick actually. With a k&n, better flowing exhaust, and the boost jacked up they can get down pretty good. Definitely faster than my 90GT when it was stock. You're not setting the world on fire but they're definitely quick. The braking and handling is where it's at with those cars. I miss that V8 rumble though, its pretty unimpressive when you rev up. I'd like to sell mine and focus on the GT.
@@mustangmike4078 Let me know if you wanna sell it. That's a cool summary of the SVO.
@@jasonmitchell7677 I don't think I'm quite ready to come off it just yet. I have to assume they're only gonna go up in value and if I were to sell it now there's a good possibility I'd end up kicking myself in the ass down the road when it becomes even more valuable. I've had it since 97 and I was 18 years old so I figure if I've held onto it this long I may as well keep it a little longer and maybe it will really be worth something. But I do definitely want to sell it at some point. It's a project though. Anything that can ware out is wore out. The car had a hard life and then I bought it fixed it up and then beat the hell out of it myself. The hatch has some rust but the body is pretty clean. It's gonna take some work but somebody would like to restore it I'm sure. It's just chilling in my garage in the mean time.
I had a 89 GT blue I bought new.
I remember it like it was yesterday filling out the paperwork telling the previous owner that your making a mistake selling this car.Of all the vibrant red cobras that are left how many have 20thousand original miles left untouched.
Awesome! Congrats on owning such an iconic piece of SVT history!
@@ShelbyFlyer Thanks brother. I never thought the day would come to me owning my 4 Shelby car's and my 04 and 93 cobras. My 93 is like winning a small lottery. It seems like daily my 93 cobra going up in value.For just 20 grand new to today closing in on 50grand.I really wish back in the day I bought a R version but if you didn't have a racing lis you weren't getting one.I have seen R VERSIONS going for well over 100grand.
Anthony Laudano Yes! Out of all of my Mustangs, my 93 has surprised me the most with the rapidly increasing values!
@@ShelbyFlyer Yah man I said it back in the day when they first came out I said that they will be valuable someday. I even think eventually the street versions will hit a 100grand. I watch all the auctions and they just keep going up.I think that the Terminators are next.
Anthony Laudano Good foresight! I have a 500 mile Mystichrome Terminator vert. I wouldn’t mind seeing those values do a similar rapid rise!
Loud music kills it. I'm trying to hear you talk and then get blasted in your cutaways.
Can I buy your collection if I win the lotto?
Funny Taco! 😆
@@ShelbyFlyer that wasn't a no. Lol
I can’t believe how cheap that car was back then. I bought a 2000 GT and paid about $4500 more. Is it me or was the front passenger tire like really slanted?
Nothing is “slanted” on the car. It might have been the camera angle playing tricks on you.
@@ShelbyFlyer maybe so cuz I was like how can that tire be so slanted on that pristine car 🚗👍🏻👍🏻
I love your videos! Are you looking to get any other Cobra Rs?
Thank you sir! The 2000 Cobra R was always my favorite of the three by a long shot. I have no plans to add the other two.
I have to agree with you there, that is the nicest of the three. I have two Mystics, one that I just purchased five years after finding her. Mine are nowhere the quality of yours, but still have 50k miles. The newest one sat outside in Georgia for over 10 years in the rain; no rust or body damage but the clear has worn off. I love how it looks regardless and still get compliments. It was a sentimental purchase and the paint means a lot to me as it is and my question to you is do you know anyway to make the paint shine with no clearcoat? It still has a lot of original paint and if I could make it shine, I'd keep it that way. Sorry for the long post but thanks for the response.
You could always try correcting it with a buffer and polishing compounds. It’s also possible to lightly wet sand it with something like 3,000 grit and then have it recleared, but it’s probably best to just have the whole thing repainted if you are going that route.
I'll try that, thanks. If it doesn't work, I'll just put new Mystic paint on her. Thanks again and thanks for sharing these videos.
I'm guessing you made good money selling insurance??? Love the vids!
I don’t sell insurance for a living. My profession is in my RUclips channel name... “Flyer.”
I didn't know cobras came with 8.5 rear end , i assumed it came with 8.8 .
Only downside on the 93 cobra cars was no forged pistons and rods from the factory.
Since my car is 100% stock, that doesn’t matter to me. If you are going to add boost, it then becomes a concern.
@@ShelbyFlyer true but having forged internals means a longer engine life keeping its tolerances alot longer. I have a 90 convertible 2 tone blue and grey with the rare combo of white top all white leather interior and 5 speed. I have a short video on my channel if you'd like to see it , was right after a cam swap.
@@springwoodslasher79 Awesome car! I have an 89 vert (maroon) with white top/interior that is awaiting restoration. They are fun cars!
@@ShelbyFlyer thanks bud I appreciate it!! I need to post more videos of the car it sounds great. To have a garage like yours seems fantasy to me and im definitely jelly. Maybe some day. My friend had a maroon hard top I was 15 he came from a wealthy family it was nearly brand new. Felt like a rock star cruising around in that thing.
@@springwoodslasher79 Thank you kindly!
Do you think you will ever sell it?
No plans to.
Fyi the 93 cobra did not have a 88lph fuel pump that was for the gt the 93 cobra had a 110LPH
Thanks for the info! The source I read apparently was incorrect.
2:57 where can i buy this online?
eBay! There are some there now.
@@ShelbyFlyer thank you
79 Cobra for sale in my area. Sidney, Ohio
I don’t have any space in my garage... not until I do the planned expansion.
I had a friend in HS have this same car/color
Hopefully that friend kept the car! The values have really skyrocketed!
ShelbyFlyer Nope He put a paxton (remember them?) supercharger on it, different intake and other stuff and then wrecked it w in a year Dude drives a minivan now. 😂.
@@oxyrisin Well crap! It was a 1-year only iconic car that was the birth of the SVT Cobra!
ShelbyFlyer Well it was a private school and we had more money than brains. I drove a 75 White Bricklin (when it would run!) They’re super slow cars btw. But hey, look at it this way, least yours is worth slightly more w one less of’em around.
Lucky
Why is the front fender cobra backwards? Repaired?
The 60s/70s had all Cobra badges facing right, which was the official Shelby logo (right facing). The first year of Ford’s SVT Cobra continued this tradition. In 1994, all snakes faced forward and a new tradition started.
Thank you. Didn't know that
It's beautiful. My first love. 1986 get 5.0 hatchback
Btw, your 2011 is gorgeous.
Did you design the 2011 decals and paint?
What, no 68 fastback? Your cars look great. But again I'm sure you know that.
Thank you kindly! A 68 fastback is a nice Mustang, but before my time. I like cars I “grew up with.”
8.8 rear end
I really like the collection and often dreamed of having such a nice garage. But, the music in your videos makes it hard to hear you speak and is really annoying during the breaks.
I edit the music volume down to 3-6% when I am speaking.
Such a good looking car. The Camaro had nothing on the looks or sound!
Thanks! It’s a fun time capsule!
I bet it is fun to drive
Let me know if you ever want to sell that 93 Cobra.
Never!
1 million dollars?
@@rrbcap SOLD!
I enjoyed your video but never EVER play music when your cars are running
Less guitar rip and MORE exhaust note!!!
Anyone else mad at the LF wheel counter balance?
What do you mean? Offsetting weights?
Install a junkyard seat ford leather cracks just sitting in it a few times by 5000 miles my mother seat looked like 50k miles and she was 120 pounds
Estoy Gringo My seats still look new all these years later.
ShelbyFlyer that’s because your the most meticulous owner just a friendly warning they get these deep wriggles that darken very quickly. You probably drive the car twice a year. I can’t believe the original gator backs are on the car
