I think I am ready to let go of my SVT Cobra project car. It has a clean title in my name, current Washington plates and registration, and needs nothing to drive wherever. $7500 OBO and it's only listed here right now. I am not very motivated to sell it unless a 68-70 AMX comes up in my price range but I will definitely listen to a GRMers offer.

- Near complete Graphite 04 Mach 1 interior (carpet, door panels, rear panels, kick panels, door sills, STEERING WHEEL) with Graphite/Grey 02 Cobra seats (leather/cloth, front and rear). Basically you'd have to dye the lower dash and center console and you can replace everything else with the spares and have a complete Graphite interior that's in waaaay nice shape.
- Oil catch can and lines
- Box of bolts, nuts, plugs, wiring, random brackets, etc, etc, etc that came off the car or with spares or whatever
I really would like to put the nice interior in the car, put some different tires on it, and really enjoy it on the street but it's also a ridiculously good track car right now. Being at minimum weight in CAM-C makes it competitive, and if you actually optimized the car for autocross it could be waaaay better. As it sits right now it's incredibly fast at Track Night in America at Portland International Raceway with it's loooong straights. GPS/data logger verified 122+ MPH V-max. This car would be ideal for the new SCCA Time Trials program. Put in a roll bar and go slay! Or gut it and turn it into a drift missile. Or swap the wheels/tires and go drag racing.
I would like to do all of that but I have a new project, 3 jobs, and grad school going plus buying a house so more than likely it will just spend the next year sitting. Pry it out of my cold, dead fingers for $9500 OBO. We can certainly talk about a lower price without the spare interior and/or wheels.
