Yep it is the one with the 5 speed but for the price he let go the car it was a steal... I am looking for a T56 trany if any of you has one to sale let me know... I'll bring it back to original specs...
.Why does it have a 5 speed?

Because the car was bought from a Toyota dealer in Texas. They did not know anything about Cobras and didn't want to pay the price the T56 was worth so they went to the 5 speed conversion...
Dumb move on their part. So the guy I bought it from, bought it, and brought it over to ontario... where I bought it...
His reasons was that he did not use it enough to decide that he should bring back the 6 speed so he decided to sell it and I bought it for the price of a MACHI...
I'll be putting in the 6 speed... in the near futur..

Hey, nice car. I brought my 03 Terminator out of Texas.
Look, I have to ask, did you by any chance get "CobraBob" to run the VIN for you on this car?
I ask this, because I was the person on Modular Fords who CarFaxed the VIN for you.
Hats off to another Canadian Cobra, and a local one at that!
Cheers!

Cobra Bob
Yes I have talked to him on the phone and by emails...
I also talked to almost all the people in Texas that was involved with car the at one time or an other...
I have the full story about all the truth or the un-true things about that car...
I am very happy with all the help that CobraBob gave me the contacs and all...
I'll be enjoying the car for the summer and will be putting in a T56 trany in the winter... then the car will be all set... this car is set up at this time to push 430 RWHP and 390 RWtorque... I've talked with the car mechanic in Texas... it is a bomb!
