Bob,

I'm not trying to make you look bad, but the facts are the facts. Despite what you read on the internet, there were only 50 2008 Cobra Jet Mustangs built and delivered. I believe all were delivered in 2009, despite the fact that they are ALL 2008 models. I've been to the plant and saw most of the cars in production. Additionally, there were two (2) graphics packages. You could order one with the big snake or without it. Most internet sites have it all wrong. It was about a $1,700 option so many came without it.

If you are so intent on believing that there are 100 cars, I suggest that you forget whatever contact you have and call Ford Racing directly. I am pretty tight with the project, and with the men who developed it. Most think the cars are '09s because Ford built and delivered them in '09, but they are all 2008 models to commemorate the '68 CJs and there are only 50, just like in '68.
