From 6-cylinder secretary specials to the newest fire-breathing GT350R enthusiasts have always been able to build pretty much any platform they wanted through either a factory order form or an aftermarket phone number. That said; the most impressive Mustangs are typically those that channel a horse with some kind of snake. And for roughly 50 years various forms of snake-branded ponies have built a reputation for being some the hottest performance cars the market has ever seen. 1 of only 5009 Mustang Cobra coupes built for the 1994 model year and sporting only 2195 original miles this factory-serpentinized pony possesses a level of polish most aftermarket entities simply couldnt achieve.

Its Cobra-spec trim is so straight youd think its interwoven behind the bodys hard parts. And overall this Ford backed by a clean 3-owner CARFAX is a super slick speed machine that mixes timeless curb appeal with a premium sense of drivability! ENGINE The Mustang has long been the champion of budget performance and much of that has to do with the rock-solid base engines Ford shoves between the cars fenders. Pop the hood on this Cobra and youll find a low-mileage example of the venerable 5.0 liter Windsor V8. While the 5-Oh made its first appearance as a 289 way back in 1963 it continuously progressed over the next 40 years to become a choice ally for all kinds of performance fans on the highway drag strip and road course. For the 1994 model year the mills Cobra-exclusive High Output variation utilized an aluminum GT-40 intake roller rockers iron GT-40 heads an aggressive cam profile and upgraded fuel and exhaust paths to create an unbeatable combination of smooth cruising and spirited performance. As you would expect this showroom-fresh coupes clean engine remains bone stock but with 240 horsepower and 285 lb./ft. of torque stock isnt such a bad place to be. The car starts on the first try idles well and retains all the good manners installed at Fords Dearborn factory. And featuring mere break-in miles the engine is ripe for modification or a few more decades of casual cruising – the choice is yours! DRIVETRAIN/SUSPENSION Corral this pony on a lift and youll find a well-preserved undercarriage thats every bit as solid as the cars slick profile. At the center of the floors a beefy Borg Warner 5-speed offers full access to the 5-Ohs power while a stock 8.8-inch rear end throws that power though original 3.08 gears. Handling and overall refinement were a central focus for SVT-tuned SN95s and that attention to detail shows in items like beefy sway bars performance-tuned struts special shocks and lightly massaged springs. Naturally that suspension remains in its stock configuration taking well to curves thanks to power rack-and-pinion |
