The Ford SVT Mustang Cobra (also known as SVT Mustang Cobra, SVT Cobra, or simply as Cobra) is a muscle car/pony car model that was built in model years 1993 through 2004 by Ford Motor Company's Special Vehicle Team division (or SVT, for short). The SVT Cobra was a high-performance version of the Ford Mustang, considered as top-of-the-line as it was positioned above the Mustang GT and Mach 1 models during its era of production. On three occasions, the race-ready, street-legal SVT Cobra R variant was produced in limited numbers. The SVT Cobra was succeeded by the 2007 Shelby GT500.

“The Mustang set off a revolution almost to the level of the Model T in terms of making a cool sports car affordable to the average person. When you were driving a Mustang, you were special. You were noticed. You stood out. And today the Mustang delivers the same attributes.”
- Bob Witter, Ford Global Brand Entertainment

My very first new sports car. It was fast and throaty, loved the way it out me back in my seat and making the growl. I also loved how old I was.

Polaroid 600 instant photo taken circa 1990. My sister shows her new Mustang with the 5.0L (302) HO V8. It had a manual transmission, whether it was a 4- or 5-speed I don't recall. It was one of the many other cars she has owned equipped with a stick-shift including an Opel Manta, Firebird Trans Am and Porsche Boxter.

None of that Ecoboost stuff here... Just a mint looking example of a Fox-body, even if it might not be a V8.
The third-generation Mustang was produced by Ford from 1979 until 1993. Built on Ford's Fox platform, it is commonly referred to as the "Fox body Mustang". It evolved through several sub-models, trim levels, and drive-train combinations during its production life. And, as you can see from the badge on the quarter panel behind the front tire, this is the version of the Mustang that garnered the nickname "five-oh" made famous in music lyrics from the late '80s and early '90s.

My low mileage 1992 Ford Mustang LX hatchback with a 2.3L four cylinder engine and four speed automatic.
Long time no see, huh. At least I hope you had more interesting and productive summer time than mine was =p
Anyway, I'm kind of back in action again with another fictional car, loosely based on Mustang Foxbody (though someone could see similarities to Ford Falcon XB "Pursuit Special" design, it was purely unintentional).
In my planned attempt to reboot universe of LEGO Racers videogames this car belongs to Jeremy T. Sparks aka "Sparky", always happy car mechanic who's familiar with street racing scene but not taking a part in any events now. However, it obviously seems like his trustworthy V6-powered muscle car went to hell and back one day...
One of my favourite generations of Mustang, especially in Cobra version. The Foxbody Mustang, although introduced in 1978, has aged quite well, and with a facelift looked quite modern at the end of its career. This is exactly the model from that period, in 5.0 H.O. version which has 5.0 V8 engine with 225 HP. Interestingly, one of rare American muscle cars that have the engine displacement written in cubic centimetres rather than inches. H.O. means High Output, although 225 HP isn't that much for today's means. This car was originally bought in South Carolina, and imported in Serbia by its original owner in early 90s. Since 2009 it was in garage. Interestingly, it has 5 speed manual transmission.

Born from the anxieties of the 1970s—oil embargoes, tightening emissions laws, and looming fuel economy/safety mandates—the Fox Body Mustang was Ford’s proof that performance could thrive in a leaner era. Riding on the brand-new Fox Platform, the 1979 Ford Mustang arrived just as America crawled out of its fuel-crisis funk, and Ford’s cost-cutting gamble paid off. In the first year of sales, Ford sold nearly 370,000 Fox Body Mustangs (the car’s strongest launch since 1964) to the joy of loyalists, still bruised by the downsized Mustang II. Like the first-gen Mustang, the immediate popularity of the Fox Body Mustang laid the groundwork for this new body style to become an icon of the ‘80s and a pop sensation.
Before we get into the legacy of the third-generation Mustang, let's take a look at Ford's venerable Fox Platform. It was introduced in 1978 on the Ford Fairmont (shown above) and Mercury Zephyr, and was soon followed by the Ford Mustang and Mercury Capri a year later. The start of the ‘80s saw the rapid expansion of the Fox Platform as it underpinned the Ford Thunderbird, Ford LTD, Ford Granada, Mercury Cougar, Mercury Marquis, Lincoln Continental, and Lincoln Mark VII. By the late ‘80s, this rear-drive platform had been replaced by a lineup of front-drive vehicles, and the Mark VII and Mustang were the final cars to ride on Fox Platform, ending in 1992 and 1993, respectively; the fourth-generation (1994-2004) Mustang rode on a modified Fox Platform called SN95, but the 1979-93 years represent the beloved Fox Body Mustang. In all, more than a dozen nameplates and some 7 million vehicles rode on the Fox platform from 1978 through 1993. Shared hard points let Ford chase every niche without re-tooling from scratch, while hot-rodders discovered that suspension bits from a humble Fairmont wagon would bolt straight into a weekend drag Mustang.
The entire Mustang line received a dramatic facelift for 1987. Flush aero headlamps, integrated body-color bumpers, and a cleaner cabin vaulted the aging Fox shell into the modern era, while electronic mass-airflow fuel injection on the 5.0 unlocked smoother power delivery and untapped tuning potential. Magazine tests clocked mid-14-second quarter-miles straight off the showroom floor, and aftermarket catalogs grew as thick as phone books.
Ford saved perhaps the best for last. In 1993, the newly formed Special Vehicle Team unveiled the Cobra and ultra-limited Cobra R. GT-40 cylinder heads, a unique intake, and bigger injectors nudged output to 235 hp, while larger brakes and firmer springs sharpened track manners. Together, they capped a 14-year production run that totaled more than 2.6 million cars. Today, whether it’s the sleeper LX 5.0 sneaking through Friday-night test-and-tune lanes, a Concours-grade SVO, or a sun-bleached droptop cranking “Ice, Ice Baby” around town, the Fox Body endures as a fan-favorite Mustang.

An antique Florida Highway Patrol Ford Mustang SSP on display at the St. Augustine Beach National Night Out event in St. Augustine Beach, Florida. The Mustang SSP, meaning Special Service Package, was a factory variant of the foxbody Mustang that was available to police departments such as FHP and CHP from the early 1980s until the mid 1990s. The Florida Highway Patrol was one of the biggest users of the car, and ordered thousands of them from its inception until its discontinuation. This specific vehicle is a 1985 SSP and has been restored and maintained by an auxiliary trooper. It is not in active service with FHP.

This '79 Mustang isn't based on a specific model or trim package because I wanted to include a full suite of iconic elements on my build: the black trim stripes, rear window louvers, hood scoop, sunroof, and spoiler. Dark Red is a really nasty color to work with, guys. Look at all the color variation on these pieces!
Instructions for this one are free because, to be up front with y'all, it's not very fun to build and I cannot bring myself to charge money for a bad time.
AJ: "....And the Foxbody rally car will go there, The decommissioned A-10 over there, the Bede BD-5 there, and....what else can I stick in here?"
"You have any idea what he's saying?"
TD: "He's speaking Adameise, so....nah."
"Sounds pricey even for the guy who just bought a private hanger."
TD: "On an international airport. Since when can you do that."
AJ: "Since I existed. And since me and Cody decided to start up our own little aviation business...."
TD: "Aviation business?"
AJ: "Flight schooling and aircraft manufacturing! We're gonna teach people of all ages how to build and fly!"
"Oh my god, that's so cool! But still, how are you paying for all this?"
AJ: "Cody and I basically made the first real Jetpack. Manufactures everywhere are bending over for us. And even then there's Ferris Air sponsoring this whole thing."
TD: "Ferris Aircraft is sponsoring you guys? Because of your jetpacks?"
AJ: "Nah. Have I ever told you where my Dad's money comes from? He's like one of the top 3 or 4 people at Ferris Air."
TD: "Well, that explains....basically everything."
"Man, it's so cool you and Cody are doing this! What if this gets really big? All the kids you'll be teaching, all the people you're educating, the jobs you'll be providing...."
AJ: "Yep, makes you wonder who the real superhero is here!"
TD: "Us."
AJ: "Yeah...."
"Cody's gonna meet so many people, too! Maybe he'll get a girlfriend out of this! He really needs one."
AJ: "Irrelevant."
"W-what?"
AJ: "Cody's never gonna have a girlfriend. He's gay."
"Woah..."
TD: "Haha, for real?"
AJ: "Yeah. Came out and told me a couple weeks ago. I'm the only one he could come out to, anyway. We was really shakey about it too, can you believe it? Do I look like a homophobic shitheel to you?"
"No, but...that's just a big thing, Adam. Could've been life changing for him."
AJ: "Well, I'm cool with it. He's still the other half to this business, that's all that's important."
TD: "....first thing you asked him right after he came out was if you were hot, wasn't it?"
AJ: "NO!.....yes..."
"Verdict?"
AJ: "I'm a solid 6/10."
TD: "Hurray, you're adequate!"
AJ: "Story of my life. Anyway, the quadjet should be around soon, you guys wanna stick around, maybe go for a short flight around town?"
"Adam, we'd love to, but there's the whole superhero thing."
TD: "Not to mention school. Finals, man...."
AJ: "Brutal as ever, huh? Still amazed I got by with a solid C. What's going on with the costumes, though? Did Joker get out after another 30 minute stint at Arkham?"
TD:" Nah, we're investigating something else. A string of missing people."
"Young women have been disappearing on a weekly basis. Some psycho creeping them, no doubt."
AJ: "Someone targeting young girls. Wow, that's original."
TD: "Well, we say missing but we should say killed. Skeletal remains were found in the O'Niel Woods, like when you crash landed there a few months ago."
AJ: "Again? Holy shit..."
"The really scary part? Forensic reports said that there were bite marks on the bones. Bite marks from human teeth...."
