Equipment

Chrome wire wheels, chrome front and rear bumpers, wind wings, dual quads on 289 V8, four speed, competition lap belts, rack and pinion steering, hardtop, side curtains. Represented as original engine. Poor trunk fit, seats retrimmed in leather far nicer than the original leather on the dash. Decent paint and chrome.

Market commentary

As a late model small block Cobra this car has much going for it as it came from the factory. None of the issues present were deal breakers, but they were strong suggestions to look this car over closely and may have played a role in the cars relatively low price.
