This car has 95% of its original components including ALL
components unique to a Super Cobra Jet Mach I, including:
Engine Oil Cooler, 4.30:1 Rear Axle, LeMans Style Connecting Rods, Balanced Crankshaft, Harmonic Balancer, and Flywheel.  The car also has the original transmission (including the Hurst shifter!), Shaker Hood, Power Front Disc Brakes, and Chrome Styled Steel Wheels.

Parts that are missing include:
Rim Blow Steering Wheel, Passenger Front Fender, Factory tach, and (7) Pistons.

The body is in very good condition for a Mustang that spent its entire life in the Midwest.  There are several areas of rust repair that have been completed at some point.  These areas, as best as we can tell, are limited to the lower rear quarters and the door bottoms.  The floorboards in the passenger areas have been replaced at some point.  The rest of the floorboards are original and very solid with the only apparent rust being two quarter sized holes just in front of the gas tank and a small area below the clutch pedal. The front fender and rocker panels appear to be solid.  The interior is in overall good condition.  Most of the parts show staining from extended storage but are in otherwise good condition.

We've done our best to accurately represent this car.  Because of its current state of disassembly (it's basically a rolling body), we cannot say for sure that every little bracket and fastener is there.  we do know that every major component is present with the exception of what is listed above.  We feel that the listed mileage is inaccurate due to the disassembly of the dashboard but it is what is on the title.  If you have specific questions please e-mail jhoying@cruisenclassics.com and I will respond promptly.

This is a RARE opportunity to own a completely matching numbers Super Cobra Jet Mach I.  Fully restored SCJ's are selling (if you can find one) for $30,000 to $40,000.  The value of a car this rare will surely rise in the next few years.  Remember it costs just as much to fully restore a standard Mustang as it does to restore a rare and valuable SCJ.  Pick your investment wisely.
