Public forum, public opinions. What was it exactly that you didn't like about what was said above?

OP if your going to post in a public forum you should get some thicker skin..

If I or any one offended you , Im sure it was a misunderstanding. I simply felt that you were worrying about mileage being correct, when the motor is not original, the strut tower needs replaced, and it needs paint/body work. The car has had a hard life, and low mileage or not, it will reflect in value.

So being low mileage pails in comparison to the life the car has had.

The 93 cobra is one of those cars that is only collectable in terms of how badly someone has to own one.

Well **** Mike my car got a 147k on the interior and still looks new ?

That's not always true but like you said most rides....
