Description : Gateway Classic Cars Houston showroom is excited to offer this Pacific Green 1997 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra. According to its owner, 1997 was the only year that the Cobra was available in this color and is reportedly one of only 1055 Pacific Green coupes built. Its paint still looks great and is complemented nicely with a tan leather interior that is only showing minor wear after all of these years. While many Mustangs have been heavily modified and "ridden hard and put up wet", this is not one of them. It HAS been modified, but with attention to handling and stability improvements, rather than going with power adders. It has a full Steeda G-Trac Stage III suspension setup, including 1.25" lowering springs (650 lb front, 200-250 lb variable rate rear), Tokico Illumina adjustable struts and shocks, rear upper and lower control arms, adjustable rear sway bar, Caster/Camber plates, strut tower brace, offset polyurethane front control arm bushings, tubular front swaybar, and bumpsteer kit.

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
