1998 Ford Mustang (Cobra Engine)
Location: Falls Church, VA
Means of contact: PM/Email
Price: $6700 obo
I purchased this vehicle new in 1998 and have had it ever since. The vehicle has never been in any accidents but keep it mind it does have its original paint so there are blemishes on the bumpers and leading edge of the hood from normal driving. I can provided the VIN to anyone who would like to run a carfax which will show to be clear.
As you can see I bought this as a V6 and in 2001 after having approx 40,000 miles (just out of ford warranty) I swapped in a 1998 Cobra DOHC V8. The swap is entirely 1998 spec (PCM, harness, cooling system, etc). The engine that was swapped in had approximately the same mileage which was convenient and I was able to swap its Cobra instrument cluster at the same time. So the 105,000 miles is accurate on both the body and the engine.
This Mustang still turns heads and the engine runs strong. I am asking $6,700 obo.
Please no trades or parting out. I am trying to sell the vehicle as a whole.
Breakdown:
- 1998 Black Coupe
- Factory Options: Black Leather Interior, Mach Stereo System, Head Unit changed with an MP3/IPod Player
- 4.6 32V DOHC w/ Manual 5-spd Transmission
- BBS Front 18x8.5 w/ 245/40R18
- BBS Rear 18x10 w/ 285/35R18
- Rear Cobra Brake Conversion (Discs and Calipers)
- Borla Dual Exhuast
- Bassani X-pipe,
- JBA Coated Headers
- Centerforce Flywheel
- Centerforce Stage II Clutch
- Eibach Lowering Springs
- Steeda Camber/Caster Plates
- Steeda Tri-Ax Shifter
- 8.8 rear w/ Limited Slip, 3.73s (Approx 2 yrs old, includes new axles)
- Bilsteins all around including quad shocks
- Saleen Carbon Fiber Hood

Re: 1998 Ford Mustang (Cobra Engine)
Haha, thanks ZAX04 but i'm really trying to keep it as a whole. As selling it is becoming more of a reality i'm trying to resist just keeping it.
