1997 Ford Mustang

Gateway Classic Cars is proud to offer this 1997 Mustang Cobra. Hold on to your seat as you look this thoroughbred Mustang Cobra over, you may lose your pants. This Cobra is Fast and Furious. Judging from the exterior this Mustang can easily be mistaken as normal, or a regular version Mustang Cobra. This venomous Cobra has potent power and is the ultimate sleeper. “A sleeper is a car that has high performance and an unassuming exterior”. Sleeper car exteriors appear similar or identical to a standard or economy-class car and in some cases, it appears worse due to seeming neglect on the owner's part, commonly referred to as "all go and no show.’ While appearing to be a standard car, internally they are modified with higher performance levels. This monster is packing a 4.6 extreme built motor. It is probably easier to ask what’s not been done to this motor, rather than what has been done. There are 84,000 miles on the frame and 3,000 break-in miles on the freshly built motor. The beastly engine consists of Manly Forged Pistons, Eagle 4340 Rods, Eagle Crank, Clevite Main and Rod Bearings, Felpro Gaskets, new oil pump, new timing chain and guide, Ford Racing 60 pound injectors, AEM 340 High Output Fuel Pump, Accufab Ellispe Throttle Body, Procharger High Output Intercooled Supercharger System, 3.1 pulley (9 pounds), SCT BA-2600 Big Air 90 MM MAF Sensor, Snow Performance Stage 1 Water and Methanol Kit (kicks in at 6 pounds of boost), MSD Coil Packs and Wires, Moroso Coolant Expansion Tank, HID Headlights and Foglights, Competition Stage 3 Clutch, and 3.73 gears. The car will make close to 700 horsepower with the correct pulley setup. Currently, this “Monster” is making 575 horsepower and 420 foot-pounds of torque. You can hear the Hooker Headers exhale through a BBK Offroad X Pipe and SLP Loudmouth Catback Exhaust.

The interior has been upgraded with Corbeau LGL Wide Black Racing Seats, MOMO Steering Wheel and Hub, and AEM Black Faced Gauges. Gauges consist of TRU Boost, Wideband, Oil Pressure, Water Temp, Hurst Short Shifter, Rear Seat Delete Kit, and Viper Alarm System. Exterior shows well with XXR 531 wheels powder coated black. You will get plenty of traction with TOYO Proxes Street Radial 315/35/17 rear tires. The 3-inch Cowl Hood and Saleen Style Wing adds just the right touch of styling.
