    Exclamation Part Out , Rebuild or make into a track car.

    I have a low mileage Mark II cobra that got in an accident. Front half of the body is gone, one front bumper support bar is sheared off, one new side pipe needed. Otherwise in good running condition. Modified 302, Toploader 4 speed. , halibrand wheels, new tires., coil overs, etc. etc. Car runs and drives fine. Have had a couple of offers to part it out. Like some opinions on.. should I rebuild or part out or sell as is maybe as a track car.?. Rebuild will be around $12K. What is the market for parting out like? Thanks

    The partout really depends on the drivetrain. New or rebuilt engine? IRS 3 link or 4 link rear? what kind of brakes etc. I buy cars like this all the time. If interested send me some pictures at
    [email protected] I might buy it whole.
    Thanks Mike
