yeah ima do all that. I was the one to bid on it. I asked him about the milege and talked to his mom. very nice people she told me the whole story to why they are selling the car. Long story short. He messed up. He meant that its been 21K miles since the blower install by previous owner. Im ask for receipts and tear the block apart to see if all that stuff is on there. Im going to go look at it on tuesday. Ask for receipts and all that stuff. Make up some kind of contract, just to make sure all that stuff really is on there. The suspencion is totally redone stocks and springs didn't really ask about anything else. Haha the airport people are gonna be like where the hell are you going with a floor jack and all those tools hahahaha, ima make sure the car is great before i buy it.

Car looks to be in great shape. I hope this car turns out to be good. The motor looks like it needs to be clean haha thats the only thing i see wrong.

Thats what I thougt. but i need to drop prolly 2 grand into it to make it perfect. Little rubber seals and stuff like that. I'll clean the motor haha. There are 4 dings on the car total which i will have pulled out. Top is pretty beat up but i knocked off alot of money off that 15000 I was gonna pay. My GT is in immaculate condition comparing to the cobra. But that motor is a beast

yeah i got the print out on it with all the pricing. It's deff alot of money into it. Totally built heads, and bunch of other crap. But I haven't added it up. Whatever he spent the car is built right

I love when people w/ high horsepower cars talk about how they never ran it hard or raced it. If you modify a car to make that kind of power, you're gonna use it, and use it a lot. I'd never buy a car that was that highly modified.
