Usually a stripe delete is the whole car on the coupe (has no stripes -side or top) and on the verts it has the side stripes and no top ones from the factory.

Carfax states it has 5 records, but I don't have a open account with them 
Autocheck states 6, but I don't have a account with them either :/
Anyway, ask the dealer for one - they should provide you one free of charge. One thing for sure though, its a GT500 - its just missing a few things :P

I would seriously consider getting a new one, or atleast a different one. Just the fact that at some point the emblems were obviously removed and then reinstalled incorrectly is enough to turn me away. Who knows what else was messed with? Good luck with whatever you decide though.

I'd be willing to bet that its been hit in the front and repaired by a shop who does not know Mustangs. There is no other reason for those Cobra's to have been removed and then put back on the wrong sides. This would also acount for the missing grill Cobra too. The shop just ordered the replacement parts and had no idea they would need to order the Cobra too since it does not come with the grill.

I sent them an email asking what was up with the emblems just for kicks and here's the response.
Matt,
Thank you for your interest into the Mustang GT 500. You are right the Cobra is on backwards maybe it is like having a double stamped coin it makes it more valuable. I think they replaced the Cobra with the wrong one. This vehicle is still available if you would like to come by and take a look.
Thank you.

LOL.
"I think they replaced the Cobra with the wrong one."
What the hell does that mean? It's almost like he's trying to say it's been wreaked without saying it.
