03 cobra built motor, whipple, custom paint

Ok guys, I'm not sure if I want to sell the cobra any more but I figured I'd repost with an updated list of mods. I think I have just about everything on here now. Tell me what you think its worth. I know I should be getting rid of it but for some reason I really want to keep the car as well. Motor was professionally done by Razors Edge Performance near Ft. Lauderdale, I have receipts for parts and many pictures of the complete build if needed. It has well over 25k in aftermarket parts. The new motor was put in at 60k miles and now has just over 64k miles.

- Comp cam springs and retainers
- 3 angle valve job on heads, new valve guides
- 1mm over sized valves

The car is currently setup for 13lbs boost and is tuned for this setup. The boost can very easily be changed up to 25lbs, however I do not have any other pullies, was planning on making a race tune but never got around to it.
Car runs like a complete dream, new motor is extremely strong, nothing wrong with the car at all. The just went threw a 6k paint job. Its Kawi green, metallic silver, Jet black with the red pin stripe. I know the colors sound like it would be awful together but you really must see the car in person to appreciate it.
I know there some things I'm probably still missing, but I just wanted to throw it on the board to see what people think. Please email me for further questions. Ohthreecobra@aol.com or feel free to PM me
Thanks, Billy
















Sorry the car is so dirty but it is my daily driver and I put and where from 50 to 100 miles on it daily and its very reliable.
