Old-school journalists might know the term “headless snake” — meaning when a person gets referred to in a story and an editing/writing error leaves off their first name. Today, we have a “topless snake” — a heavily modified 2001 Ford Mustang Cobra convertible.
The suspension is the target of most of the mods. The independent rear suspension was rebuilt with racing bushings, axles and bearings from a 2003 Cobra, and coilover shocks. The front suspension gets coilovers and tubular control arms. There are full-length subframe connectors.
The clutch and driveshaft are beefed up and there is a 4.10 rear end.
Other upgraded bits include an aftermarket stereo and radiator.
There are some other upgraded bits and pieces — refer to the listing for the full picture.
Speaking of the listing, you can see it here. The car is for sale in Ohio with an asking price of $19,500. It’s a manual with a mileage of 62K and change.
