Default RE: HARDTOP COBRA!! CHECK THIS OUT!!

Looks like something Ford made to show off at dealers show room floor
but never put into production, and the dealers were probably supposed to return them.

but car dealers being what they are will sell anything if you wave enough money at them
so a few made it out onto the streets. there have been other "dealer special" cars from time
to time over the years.


ORIGINAL: Black Snake

I want one!!!

Is it possible just the get the hardtop peice and put it on a vert sn95? Or are there special brackets and mounting?

Cobra R duhr! The '95 Cobra R was built on a convertible chassis for strength and they put a hard top on it. Hence the convertible hard top.

You're kidding, right? I never knew it either until one of my instructors at school brought his socalled 'racecar' to school. I see it and say..."uhh..." So he tells me the story of the Cobra R. It is in fact built on a convertible chassis. It makes up for the extra weight with no options. Just your driving controls. The cobra R is actually a fantastic machine. Never, ever saw one in person since then. Let alone ride in it!

I wasn't saying that was an R. I was using the Cobra R as a reference. Everyone knows the '95 R so it was perfect. Here let me make up a little thing to show you.

Well nevermind...cant make a thing to show you. But the cobra r was basically a convertible hard top. Built on a convertible chassis.
