Ford Mustang SVT Cobra

But I want an old school 5.0 Mustang, which is not expensive.

But like a 91 or 92 or 93 5.0 Mustang Cobra.

That would be awesome.

Like I want an old school car.

I couldn't afford dinner for the weekend and she's got my dream car.

And she pulls out a Hot Wheels version of a Mustang Cobra.

And it was just a cool gag, you know, just have a little bit of fun.

But what turned out to be a gag was, you know, okay, I could dream a little bit.

So, a lot of reasons it's kind of stupid to buy an all-wheel drive vehicle.

even though everybody seems to be going gaga about them, half of that is the sales marketing of the car manufacturer, because they get more money for those cars, so of course they want to push them, and of course if you want to get good gas forget driving a car like this Mustang Cobra have common sense of course and if you're real serious about saving money maybe get a big old electric bicycle like this or a cool electric motorcycle like this as long as you don't have to go more than 50 miles but don't be suckered into buying an electric car I just did a study shows that the price of owning an electric car is still per year well over owning a regular or hybrid gasoline car plus they said oh well it doesn't cost that much to fill it up depends where you are the electricity can get pretty expensive but as we all know the price of electricity it's going up my electric bill here in Rhode Island is now more than twice it was last year because guess what the price of natural gas that they used to generate the electricity which is mainly what they use in Rhode Island that's sky high so it's the illusion that oh it's cheap to charge them up not in the long run and not if you're traveling through areas where they charge whatever they want at the charging stations because those are independent operators they can charge whatever they want for electricity so now you know the truth about gasoline high price things you can actually do and believe you me do not do the things that I told you not to do or you'll regret it, don't be pulled in by a scam, do the logical thing, repairing the tires, clean filter, clean oil, take excess weight out of your car, if you're thinking about buying another car, get a good hybrid, save yourself a lot of money on gasoline right,

I'm boring everyone.

But at the age of 17, I ended up getting a Ford Cobra, number 100, the old Bathurst beast.

There was only 400 of them, and I had number 100, and she was a beast.

Regrettably, I had to sell it three years ago, and that devastated me,

Just very quickly, I used to work in my old man's video shop.

At the age of 13, one night, I heard this rumble in the video shop.

I thought, what the hell is that? I looked out the front, and a Ford Cobra pulls up, and the customer I knew where he goes, oh, you want to go for a ride, mate? Oh, my God, Sam, I've come back a different person.

I was only 13.

Six-speed...

They took a fucking 5.8, I think it was a 5.8, truck V10, and they took two sets of Mustang Cobra four-valve modular, because the Triton V10 is a mod motor, right? Yep.

Then they took two sets of Ford Mustang Cobra heads, split them up, welded them back together, and made a custom four-valve V10.

And that is what is powering that thing.

It's insane.

But the two headliners? One was from 1995, one was from 1997.

The 1995 car was the famed Ford Mustang Cobra, nobody's fool IMSA road racer that was driven by Paul Newman at the... 1995 Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona.

It was the GT1 class winner, and it is still in its race bodywork.

It's got all the patina.

$935,000 for that car.

That's got to be a record for a GTO IMSA car.

model of any sort and the other headliner was the Ford Mustang Cobra SCCA Trans Am road race car that was driven to 11 Trans Am victories by that year's champion Tommy Kendall and that sold for $825,000 so Coming up next month, we will be having probably a third quarter wrap-up and then later in the year, a year-end wrap-up, which will highlight the race cars that were sold and also...

Try to get the abacus out and see.
