Re: $200K 1969 Z-28
one more side note- this is a little off the subject but I had a flash back....being a poor kid working at the dealer...we did some things that were not exactly cool...when a nice clean muscle car came in..well we switched stuff off them onto our cars...little things that made our cars more correct and no one would care anyway...well I remember trading the deluxe pedals to get the stainless trim in one car for my base stuff plus the rubbers were nice and not worn on the corner of the brake pedal... and being I was pretty tight with a certain boss, I had access to things and places not many did...so maybe the lot lizard did some switcha roo action...been known to happen...

Ever wonder if parts were switched with lesser quality parts ( non-high performance )?  I recently took my Cobra in for some work. When I got the car back ( in two days ), the transmission was grinding and it honestly felt like another box. Now you did it! Got me thinking those bad thoughts about dealer service technicians.

[/ QUOTE ] what year Cobra???? when I had mine last year I heard all kinds of bad things about the newer 5spds and how little banging they took before they were grinding gears...guys were even going after Ford legally about it on the Stang boards...the sad part is you probably have the orig box in it but the lot lizard or the mechanic went around the block in it and punished it...you couldnt make me take a perf car to the dealer if I owned one...been on and in and seen to many banzi runs in cust cars...  hey that was fun..go park car..hey Fred you wanna drive a real fast Cobra...yea...well that green one in the corner is the fastest one I have ever been in...no sh*&...10 mins later..varoom out the gate it goes... sorry if I am making you feal bad...some times the truth stings a little.
