Ford Mustang Cobra Jet Dragster Revealed at SEMA
Ford's SEMA show booth hosted the premiere of the Mustang FR500CJ, also known simply as the Cobra Jet.

The Mustang-based dragster that joins its road racing siblings aka the Mustang FR500S, the Mustang FR500C and the Mustang FR500GT, is available for order from any Ford dealer as a Ford Racing part.
