1998 Cobra Black on Black.
Since my children are getting older the time came to trade in the mini van and or 3 months I looked for the Black on Black 98 Cobra that I loved. I finally found one in a southern part of Illinois. After smoking the tires on the test drive and scaring the S**t out of the sales guy driving with me on the test run I rolled out of there poisoned by the car I named Fatal Snake.
I bought the snake in 2002 as the 2nd owner and drove it summers only In Chicago for 2 years before moving to So-Cal in 2004. Being able to drive the car year around means there is a smile on my face every day. If you love Mustangs (or cars) like I do you know the feeling. I love cars and enjoy seeing peoples personality come out in their designs and modifications. I want to thank all CD members for your comments and criticism. I am looking forward to your thoughts on this ride and seeing your ride.
