Default COBRA VS. GT

Okay i have a buddy who said you could convert a GT Mustang into a Cobra Mustang, I don't know if this is true or would it be worth converting or just buying a Cobra? This might be a stupid question but I am just curious.

Depending on the year of the Cobra there would eithe be a lot of parts to swap or even more than a lot of parts to swap. Anything CAN be done but it would be cheaper and easier to just by the cobra.

Oh, it's a cinch...no problem to convert...just a simple situation of swapping out the entire motor, almost all accessories, probably the transmission, swaping suspension parts and retuning them to cobra specs, brakes, rotors, tires and rims, and a good $2,000 body kit. I'm sure there're other things...but you know what? You can definitely do it. A cinch! No problem. 2 hours tops.
