Pls make camaro video, I just started working on a 1999 z28 that my dad has worked on for a couple years, then it sat for a couple years and now I’m trying to get it on the street. It will take around 2-3 years to get on the street only because I’m paying for every part and I have a small job that I got less than a week ago. Excited to see camaro stuff!
LOL on your intro. Thank you! You can't rely on those printed valuations, as they are not ACV. I think the car is worth more (especially now, in this market) so I wouldn't feel bad at all.
I think your car looks great ! No way it looks like it has that many miles. If it were my car, I'd keep it looking like you have it now. I love the factory rims. I'd even try to find the factory head unit ( FM/AM tuner cassette) and CD player that fits below. The MACH 460 sound system has a amazing and full sound when all parts of it are together.
Spending money on something you love is priceless. I paid $7700 for my 95 Cobra here in California with 138,000 miles. The odometer doesn’t work so who really knows how much mileage she has. I love your style!
You enjoy it. It's your time and labor. What I like is how you make clean, methodical repairs and upgrades, and you take care of the vehicles so that they'll last.
I love this cobra!! All the work you’ve done has just improved it so much! I’ll be honest and say I’d buy it. Has the motor ever been rebuilt? Can’t wait to see you do the things you mentioned to it. I’ll be the first person to buy those wheels if you sell them hahah
I was in high school in the early 2000's. Back then fox bodies, IROCs, or these SVT Cobras and 4th gen Camaros roamed the streets. And despite the fact that I bought a new Mustang GT in 2016 that's faster than the old cars, my heart still has a soft spot for the 90s classics that I used to long for when I turned 16. I remember how good those 90s SVT Cobras sounded when they drove by and I was waiting for the bus. I think every guy has a special feeling for cars that were around when they were young ,no matter how much faster new cars get. Take good care of her!
I think you’ve gotten a couple of grand at least if not more enjoyment from it so far with more to come, so you are still doing good with it I think. Great that it runs so nice with nearly half a million miles on the clock!!! The proposed mods you have planned sound promising too.
I just south a 2001 Mustang Bullitt with 227,000 miles and is a lot of fun to drive I am not bitting the car but I driving and enjoying the sound of the V2.
I watch every video you do, but I particularly like the Cobra series as I have a PG 97 coupe. What is your opinion of the feel and appearance of the Wheelskin black steering wheel cover? My Cobra also has a Saddle interior with the usual ratty looking leather on the original wheel. Waiting for more new content!
@@ReynoldsRides Good to know. If you could, on one of your next Cobra videos, show a straight on view of the wheel cover and perhaps mention that you like it. A lot of Cobra owners have a crapped out leather surface on their steering wheels. It is a more cost effective solution than replacement. A suggestion might be to do an install video on one of your project cars in the future if it had a worn surface.
Just found your channel, thanks for making the video, I’m just bring back my 1997 z28 and if it wasn’t for it already being mine and having memories I could have just bought one in better condition
Hey, this hobby ain't cheap, as long as you enjoy your car thats all that matters. Just wondering if you had to sell one of those cars which one would it be?
As a DIYer, I buy and drive older cars, and always have. I think KBB is about right. A Cobra has some intrinsic value to an enthusiast. I'd want to know its history, and do a compression test. If that was all good, I would consider buying it. I think $3,500 is about the most I would pay, depending on all the details. To be fair, though, Mustang prices seem to have shot up recently, so maybe I'm low. The good news is that you have very little money in it, and depreciation will be negligible, relative to other options. The sales tax and doc fees for a new Mustang could easily match what you've spent, for example. First year depreciation would be more. But, if I were you, I'd leave this one stock. It's a one-owner, unmolested vintage Mustang. Don't modify it, preserve it. At least keep the stock parts, including the exhaust and suspension stuff. JMO.
*I enjoy the fleet smalls. I have mentioned this before but, I have a 2nd Gen Camaro. I am hoping to start getting back into upgrades by the end of the year.* @2ndgenfrank
$40 for emissions? How old does the car have to be to get exempt? My state started doing emissions in my county back in 2004. In 2018, they charged me $7 because they no longer needed to test my 94 for emissions.
That’s almost the exact same stuff that I have had to buy for my 97 cobra ever since I bought it last year. Significantly less miles on mine but still, shit breaks 🤷♂️
Thats actually not that bad money wise for a Cobra mustang.And there are very few cars that ever are valued at what we have spent on them for modifications.And funny enough most cars are more valuable if you don't modify them but we car guys do it because its what we do.lol.
I have a 97 Cobra and am considering the IMRC delete. How was that only a $200 line item. Did you get delete plates? You only mentioned in a previous video that you deleted them and got a tune.
I have never heard the term “old edge.” Do you mean “round body?” They don’t really have any edges, which is why the facelift was called “new edge.” Being that your comment is a year old, were you ever able to get one?
The car seems to be all stock and original you stole that car and it's worth more than you have in it. Keep it stock and find someone professional to rebuild the motor and minor repairs. Get someone to paint it nice for a decent price and you still won't be upside down into that car. I've seen them sell for 35 hundred that didn't run. I paid 4 for mine and it needs paint and interior. Look at some of the prices on Facebook mustang groups guy's are getting good money for cobras . There's a guy on RUclips that just paid 13 thousand for one that is the same year and color as yours. Keep it stock and do the work and hold on to it 5 more years it will be a twenty thousand dollar car watch and see.

I love this car. Subscribed just to see the COBRA!

Great ride! 94 GT in my stable! CANADIAN SUPERMAN APPROVES

The odometer gears are brittle plastic and break over time. My 94 broke in 2007. A replacement gear is like $10 and easy to swap out.
That original exhaust sounds sweeet!
It's your baby enjoy it I really don't care if someone else likes my car or not my wife hates my 2016 Z51 corvette

Per the original owner, the engine has not been rebuilt. Crazy, huh?!

Awesome SN95 Mustang SVT Cobra, believe it or not these cars are a big part of history for Mustangs. Great video
Found the video! This is great 👍
If it weren’t for the clutch hit, the pricing isn’t terrible and doesn’t put you that far away from the values you mentioned

That was there when I bought it but I really like the look and feel.

If you love the car, it doesn't matter how much you spend on it. Just don't expect to get it back when you sell it.
I have the same car u really know what your talking about nice video

Definitely a little higher than I thought 😉
is that 444 thousand miles without a motor or rebuild?
$1500 for a Cobra. Wow. Awesome.

5800 is nothing. You own a Cobra. !!

Way cheaper than I thought it would be
I have a 97 Cobra and am considering the IMRC delete. How was that only a $200 line item. Did you get delete plates? You only mentioned in a previous video that you deleted them and got a tune.
You can make or buy made deletes from stock IMRC plates
Hey if you enjoy your car then it's value shouldn't matter. Keeping it on the road is worth every penny
Nice, but give her a new set of headlights
I miss my cobra
You can tell that the previous owner loved that car. I wonder why he/she decided to sell it.
Old edge sn95 Cobra is the car I'm looking to get now, so I'll subscribe.
Or a Saleen s351~
Hey 🤷♂️, I can dream
I have never heard the term “old edge.” Do you mean “round body?” They don’t really have any edges, which is why the facelift was called “new edge.”
Being that your comment is a year old, were you ever able to get one?
The car seems to be all stock and original you stole that car and it's worth more than you have in it. Keep it stock and find someone professional to rebuild the motor and minor repairs. Get someone to paint it nice for a decent price and you still won't be upside down into that car. I've seen them sell for 35 hundred that didn't run. I paid 4 for mine and it needs paint and interior. Look at some of the prices on Facebook mustang groups guy's are getting good money for cobras . There's a guy on RUclips that just paid 13 thousand for one that is the same year and color as yours. Keep it stock and do the work and hold on to it 5 more years it will be a twenty thousand dollar car watch and see.
Try spending 5 times what the car is worth
5000 is nothing
When it hasn’t been your day, week or month or even your year…..
😂
