Built July 17th 2002
#3907 of 11,056
Light Flint Interior
206,600 miles
Daily Driver no matter what.
Cobra short block, 16psi on Procharger D1 supercharger, Kooks heads, high flow cats, 2 inch extension on dual pipes, built transmission with shift kit, 3500 stall TC, 31 spline Yukon forged axels, 4:10 Ford Racing Gear, Cobra Pumpkin, Boost-a-pump, Sirius Radio, engine paint all over S/C pipes, tools and spare parts in trunk at all times. 507rwhp.
No trophies ever awarded. Too beat to win best of show, too slow to be fastest at the track... however...

Used everyday, it's seen all weather. Crashed seven times and rebuilt every time. Its driven to NYC and back multiple times on three broken pistons. It's made it's to Florida. It's gotten thumbs up and numberious conversations from around the whole country, from Domestic people and the Import crowd. The car has been through hell and back and keeps going. It's gone well over the speed limit on public roads, burnouts in front of the police, maintained though junkyards, jumped railroad tracks, even jumped a bridge as it was just going up. It will light up the tires with 1/4 throttle and this time of year 1/6th throttle.

It is not the prettiest due to actual usage, it's not the fastest due to it being a street car and not a trailer queen. I can sure say, mine has had the hardest life out of the whole pack. Because of the car I have met some great people and know I will continue to do so.

It was feature car of the month last summer though....

I refuse to allow my Marauders the verbal abuse you guys/gals will dish out. They have feelings too. Ok I might send a few to help MM.net.
