How to build your own FR500CJ Cobra Jet Mustang


Ford Racing’s FR500CJ Cobra Jet has proven itself a worthy competitor on track, winning races since its debut in 2008. An updated Cobra Jet arrived in 2010 with the new body style, and yet another revision is set to come in 2012. That’s great for fans of the Mustang, but there’s a problem for anyone interested in getting their hands on one. Ford Racing builds just 50 Cobra Jets per year at a price tag much higher than most Mustang enthusiasts can afford. The 2012 Cobra jet starts at $91,900 and can exceed the six figure mark with options.

Fortunately Ford Racing offers just about every part on the car for individual sale, allowing Mustang owners to build their very own Cobra Jet Mustang to the exact specifications or a custom race car using a mix of parts. We have put together a complete list of parts (as complete as we could find) of every part on the 2010 Cobra Jet Mustang, from major components like the body in white and supercharged 5.4L V8 to the smaller items like the hood pin kit and the Cobra Jet grille emblem.
