For Sale: 1996 Ford Mustang in O'Fallon, Illinois

Gateway Classic Cars of Fort Lauderdale is happy to present this cool black w/ black top 1996 Ford Mustang Cobra SVT, with only 67,627 miles on the clock. The Cobra SVT is a special performance model, with an aluminum double overhead-cam version of the base 4.6-liter V8, churning out a high-winding 305 horsepower. The Cobra features an aluminum block, forged steel crankshaft, and unique cylinder head castings with greater inlet port flow and 9.9-1 compression ratio. Six bolt mains help keep the bottom end in place. Motor Trend noted 305 horsepower at 5800 rpms, and 300 ft. lbs. with a 6000 RPM redline. 0-60 tests came in at 5.6 seconds with a 14.2 1/4 mile- very respectable today, and in fact quicker than many of the 1960's muscle cars. This Mustang Cobra still looks very presentable. The tan leather seating areas are showing patina, but its all there, waiting for the new owner to open it up and let it sing. It is well equipped with many power options and air conditioning, meaning it is not just a raw brute you are slugging around. The convertible top feature just adds icing to the cake. Special interest Mustangs from the 60's & 70's have gotten quite expensive, as have the new ones. Here is a cool car that will not break the bank- and because of the low miles on the clock, should have quite a bit of life left in it. It would make a great daily driver, and with some light restoration, a nice show worthy Mustang you can be proud of.
