1997 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra Convertible Supercharged

Description

With its tastefully dramatic exterior showing professionally installed upgrades from front to back, this 1997 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra Convertible Supercharged would be a fitting centerpiece in any garage based on its curb appeal alone, but it has a lot more to offer than its striking good looks. It also features an ultra-potent engine that anchors a drivetrain operating in top form and a fortified chassis to create an outstanding experience behind the wheel. A cinch to draw attention wherever it goes, this special edition Mustang will arrive at its next home with a collection of build receipts to document the work that's gone into making it a top tier performance machine.

Decked out in Ebony Black paint - its original color - this is a car that will make a strong impression right off the bat. It's an ultra-sharp car to begin with, and after undergoing a clay bar session at the hands of an experienced detailer, its curb appeal will elevate further. Due to its SVT lineage, the collection of exterior modifications that set it apart from more commonly encountered Mustangs have all been done seamlessly - you'll find no Frankenstein-ish scoops jutting out, nor any ill-fitting add-ons to diminish your enthusiasm. Up front, a set of blackout halo style headlights add to the car's aggressive appearance, while in back, its signature Cobra emblem is embossed in chrome and looks great against the black bumper. Most of us would picture ourselves behind the wheel on a sunny day, testing out the abilities of this very capable ride, but should the weather not cooperate during your travels, the accompanying power black convertible top raises into position without issue and seals nicely.

The black leather interior retains a largely factory appearance, which is a good thing, as Mustangs from this era included really inviting driving environments. A pair of comfortably padded power bucket seats straddle the center console in front, and there's sufficient space in back to accommodate two adults without complaint. The white-faced gauges in the instrument cluster create a nice contrast to the surrounding dash area, where you'll find aftermarket gauges added to keep tabs on the supercharger boost and fuel pressure, and red LED lighting now illuminates the cockpit at night. Additional interior features include air conditioning, cruise control, power door locks and mirrors, a rear window defogger and an AM/FM/cassette stereo with a CD changer to provide plenty of audio options.

This Mustang gets its elite power from a fuel injected 4.6-liter V8 that's been outfitted with a ProCharger supercharger to take its already strong performance - 305 horsepower in factory configuration - to a much higher level. The engine pairs with a 5-speed manual transmission that puts full control of its power in the hands of the driver. A pair of long tube headers have been added to the mix to reduce backpressure as they lead out to Flowmaster-style mufflers that deliver just the right throaty exhaust note. This Mustang features a set of welded-in subframe connectors to enhance its rigidity and with upgraded Eibach coil springs in front and back teaming with its already low center of gravity, its handling abilities are on point. Smooth power steering makes for easy navigation, while anti-lock power brakes at all four corners bring this Mustang's set of ultra-sharp 18" chrome Cobra R wheels with their Kumho tires to prompt stops when called upon.

With its unbeatable combination of high impact curb appeal and stellar performance abilities, this 1997 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra Convertible Supercharged is a definite must-see. Call today!
