Congrats to you and your team for completing project 55!! You cannot put a price on that first drive, or seeing the sum of all that time, effort and $ gleaming in your garage, but that’s why we do it! You are a true car guy Bill, thanks for the knowledge and keep wrenching 🔧👊

[@eddiecortez6292]

Beautiful build! less is more. My first mustang was 92 GT. Love the old fox bodies

[@JesseAndMike]

It looks great! Liked!

[@mikelee4796]

Nice Cobra Bill. You are right - you build it how you want it - it’s your car! Looks great! Congrats!

[@davidkucher5.0Coy]

You did a wonderful job Bill, I love those smoked headlights. The car reminds me when I had my little 66 Mustang, just a fun car to drive. I'm very happy with my 2013 GT. Enjoy buddy 🤗👍

[@PANTYEATR1]

i know what you mean Mr Bill, my SN95 rotisserie restoration is 6 years old now. it's so close to being finished that i said it would be done this summer and I've failed to meet that deadline. when it is done, it will be seen by the likes of Matt Farah, David Patterson and any other auto journalist/blogger that is interested. good job finishing what you started. enjoy it💪

[@markusnishimori7174]

Really enjoyed following the restoration and it turned out absolutely beautiful. Great job and enjoy!

[@stillthepillar684]

Absolutely amazing street car. You can drive it hard with confidence not worrying about losing traction every time you want pass some one or any time you want to take a quick turn without smashing on the brakes. Oh and its a 93 COBRA 😜 Literally one of the luckiest guys ever behind the wheel.

[@GamerNRetro]

I'm happy for you, Bill. Car is gorgeous.

[@adamn5821]

Awesome Teal Cobra. It has been fun watching your project. Congrats!

[@chrish1446]

Car turned out beautiful. Really like the interior. Wasn't a fan of the teal at first, but now I want to paint mine that color.

[@rreno496]

Pictures and videos do NOT do this car justice. It is by far one of the cleanest and most well built Fox Body Mustangs I've ever seen. Great job guys!

[@GianniKnowsBest]

Love it! Great job it looks amazing! I'd love to get a ride in it one day

[@cecet5534]

Great story, great build and from a good guy as well!

[@65Coasty]

Stunning car. Congrats on fulfilling your dream. I know the feeling. Well done.

[@cjponyparts]

Glenn Coasty thank you very much!

[@Relic67]

I really enjoyed this series thank you very much. I appreciate the resto-mod treatment because there's always room for improvement and it still looks stock.

[@cjponyparts]

Thank you for following our build!

[@Change_this]

Amazing build! Thanks Bill, just the motivation I was looking for, watched every video of this project, and all I can think about is buying a 90-93 Fox Body Mustang 5.0, and build it my own way.

[@cjponyparts]

Awesome, thank you!

[@pyric]

It turned out so clean and its very much in the spirit of the 93 cobra. Its like a time capsule really. Only thing I'm not a fan of is the seat covers lol but personal preference.

[@427walrus]

Looks awesome man. Enjoy the ride!

[@scottm9164]

Gorgeous car and an amazing rebuild. Congrats!!

[@wesco123]

Such a great car! Way to go. Love it!!

Awesome car Bill, enjoy!

[@tommyfrombama4834]

Your car, your money, build it how you want and to hell with what anyone thinks about it. Beautiful Cobra, fwiw.

Man that cobra is my dream extremely great job cjpony!!!

[@SamanosukeS550]

Perfect 👌 sweet car Bill!

[@1974cobramustang]

The sweet Ride man. I had a 89 LX hatchback 5.0 GT package was a lot of fun lot of memories looking for one right now I have a 2014 coyote and it doesn't fill the void of my 89 Fox body looking for 1 now. ..

[@cjponyparts]

The new cars are absolutely amazing but there is something about a fox body

[@raymondsolano1780]

Great build and stunning car. It's awesome to see that you used all the original parts and did not chop it up to make a drag strip car.Sweet Ride.

[@cjponyparts]

Tried to keep the soul of the original while allowing for a little better performance.

[@lr3usmc]

My favorite mustang ever!

[@nissanbrown6144]

Looks nice

[@MyMfDominoes]

Damn that is a beautiful car. Y'all built this well.

[@timtone54644644]

I really love the color

[@SVTJD]

Omg it looks fuckin amazing!!!! This was a great video series, so much fun to watch. Congratulations Bill!

[@cjponyparts]

Latnlvr thank you!

[@TheAtlantaMafia]

I'm happy for ya!

[@luecreative]

Can't wait to see this at Foxtoberfest!

[@r000tbeer]

Looks good man

[@jaylongton]

Please do an idle clip. The Cobra turned out awesome!

[@Othercelmer1]

Bravo!!! Its beautiful!!! Enjoy it, no need to defend your choices to this crowd.

[@93SVTMustang]

Hey Bill. The finished project looks great. I noticed that you did not run your exhaust all the way to the rear bumper though. Congrats!

[@cjponyparts]

'93 Cobra I will at some point. Didn’t have time to modify the hangers for the Flowmaster tail pipes so I ran turndowns for now.

[@graigorygilbert602]

There absolutely is something about being behind the wheel of a foxbody Mustang! Down shifting from 5th to 3rd and smashing the gas..

[@waden404]

Just binged watching all of it. Great job!!!! What was used for tuning software?

[@scarface9617]

What I would give to have a Cobra like this!

[@mjohns86]

The car turned out great, do you have a build list of everything that was done?

[@ryandedobbeleer8464]

Next project 2002 mustang gt convertible. Ill let you do the build with my car lol

[@ryandedobbeleer8464]

Please like this maybe someone at cj pony will see

[@michaelcolonna6519]

Nice job Bill! I have one of the only 350 total configured the same way! Very clean with 57k original miles. Mostly stock except for MAF, TB, pulleys, full exhaust, Built rear with 31 spline and 3.73, aluminum DS, Pro-5.0, strange C/O and dampeners, CC plates, rear sway bar off my 96 Cobra, 93 and 95 Cobra R wheels I swap out for AutoX & street duty. It still needs some more hp to keep up with my other cars. I’m debating whether I should add a top end kit, engine swap, supercharger, or turbo. Used mainly as a back up daily driver and show car. What are your thoughts?

[@cjponyparts]

I love the sound and performance of the Vortech on my car, hard to go wrong with one of those and easy to install.

[@hellman1099]

I think Bill turned up his accent a bit when he got in the car, thats obviously the impact of driving it!

[@irshred]

Love it. Question for you. How’d you make the after market steering wheel work? What parts did you need to make it look so clean?

[@cjponyparts]

I used an NRG adapter, took an old clock spring to make a spacer, and the wheel bolted right up.

[@davidhill7071]

What kind of exhaust do you have on Project 55? It sounds amazing. I really like the exhaust note.

[@cjponyparts]

Ford Performance shorty headers, BBK H pipe, and Magnaflow mufflers with turndowns.

[@spocksbrain8255]

What kind of exhaust system is on the car. Sounds great!

[@cjponyparts]

Shorty headers, off road H pipe, and flowmasters with turndowns for now.

[@jeffjohnson266]

I just tried to put these rear brakes on mine. How did you solve the parking brake issue? The bracket is in the way on mine.

[@cjponyparts]

Jeff Johnson with the calipers mounted to the rear holes my factory cables worked fine

[@davidp5841]

I'm hoping that it at least makes 1 trip to the drag strip to show us all how quick it is on the quarter.

[@cjponyparts]

Maybe someday but no time soon. I am sure I will get curious

[@billymania11]

Do you guys do any period correct restorations? I ask because some of these Mustang models are starting to climb in value.

[@cjponyparts]

Bill Zipprich we don’t do any restoration at all besides something like this. The 93 is my personal car and given its history it would never have any value as an original so I built it now I wanted it. It’s more period modified lol

[@billymania11]

@@cjponyparts Makes perfect sense. It's a very nice Mustang and will be a big hit with the crowd.

[@DIYJeff]

How much would a car like this sell for?

[@1Straightwhiteman]

I have a 96 Cobra just sitting here needing a new home and someone who has the time to work on It. Lazer Red 127,000 miles. It looks like its 22 years old or so. Needs TLC.

[@jeffjohnson266]

Did you take the spacers off the front?

[@cjponyparts]

Jeff Johnson No. the AJE control arms brought the wheels in a little bit

[@stevepunnett3575]

How is the car tuned?

[@cjponyparts]

Steve Punnett SCT chip by Revolution Auto

[@jameshowlett8811]

Would love to see a parts and price list

[@youtubeuser5424]

Jame Howlett lol his price is whatever he paid for the car, all parts were free!

[@Relic67]

I'm very curious about this also. Would anybody care to guess? I'm saying close to 30k

[@jrh0369]

Can I have the part number for that steering wheel? That would look nice on my black 93 Cobra.

[@cjponyparts]

jrh0369 I’ll have to see if I can find it. It was in the scratch and dent pile at CJs lol

[@delvinh1682]

@@cjponyparts Which NRG steering wheel hub is installed and is it quick disconnect?? It looks low profile and flush! I want a setup that doesn't push the wheel in my lap and that looks like it may be the answer??

[@cjponyparts]

Delvin H it’s the NRG adapter for the 79-89 Mustang. I took apart a busted clock spring from a 90-93 car and used it to make a spacer.

[@delvinh1682]

@@cjponyparts Thanks!

[@TeamJesus515]

Congrats 🐍 So tell us how we can win it..

Will end up in collector hands...never see on street again

Not a chance, this is my personal vehicle and it will be driven!

Chromeout the rims. It. Will. Bring it out more

nissan Brown i would consider a set if I found them. These are the originals so I wouldn’t want to chrome them.

[@nissanbrown6144]

It would bring dat car out more i remember when i had a 93 cobra red and had them rims dipped in chrome oh man it was fire

Any computer work/tune?

[@cjponyparts]

It is on the stock computer and tuned by an SCT chip.

[@BigUnitBeef]

@@cjponyparts is there a how to video on that?

[@cjponyparts]

@@BigUnitBeef No we didn't get a dyno video since it was done the night before we left for Mustang Week after hours. We are going to make a few changes and will get it back on the dyno in the future.

[@manbearpig2164]

I wouldn't change a thing

[@cjponyparts]

Thank you!

[@1calvin]

I understand you did the car your way but you did not showcase the cars interior or under the hood

[@DAllman1]

Wheel spacers are needed ASAP looks great other than that lol

[@cjponyparts]

Delvin the AJE K member tucks then in just a little more than stock

[@1974cobramustang]

If you don't drive them no need to have It.. I say like I always have you could die today or tomorrow and the car would still be here and you're gone and the next person gets it and drives the hell out of it... GET OUT PEOPLE AND ENJOY YOU'RE CARS DOESN'T MEAN YOU CAN'T TAKE CAR OF THEM BUT ENJOY THEM.. BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT PROMISED TOMORROW...
