Ford kicked off the muscle car phenomenon when they introduced the pony car Mustang in 1964. In the near half-century since, the Mustang has spanned five vehicle generations, and numerous highly coveted specialty models. Perhaps the most prestigious of these is the Cobra, a designation that Ford first added to the Mustang on the 1968 Shelby edition, carrying the name over from the Shelby Cobra, of which production had ended in 1967.
One of the most famous stretches of the Mustang Cobra for sale began with a prototype built by the Ford Special Vehicle Team (SVT) in 1980. However, it would be a decade plus before Ford would establish a SVT division that would allow the team to realize this dream. An SVT Mustang Cobra for sale finally became a reality for the 1993 model year, and Ford continued to sell it until 2004.
That first SVT Mustang Cobra for sale, a Fox Body Windsor, included a 302-cubic-inch V8 under the hood that produced 235 horsepower and 320 pound-feet of torque. The team built it on top of the GT of the time, but it included a more-subdued styling and high-performance equipment from the Ford GT40.
Ford sold the "second generation" of Mustang Cobra SVT, the SN-95 Windsor, between 1994 and 1995. The team added more parts from the GT40 as well as new styling, a revised suspension, wider wheels, and larger brakes. There were also three new colors to choose from, but the three 1993 colors were no longer available.
