I saw a guy at a car show last year with a Cobra. He bought it new at Jack Loftus Ford. He lives a few towns away from me.
Bypass the neutral saftey switch at the firewall. If the car starts a bunch of times then it could be bad. Check all your ground wire connections.

Yes, Your alternator could be bad . If you take your alternator off and take it in to a auto part store they can check it out. If it is bad you should replace your reagulator to. If the alternator checks out good then check your reguulator.If you have a volt meter check your battery voltage with car off. If battery is charged you should read 12to 13 volts. Start the car and take the volt meter and check the battery again you should read higher then battery voltage if you do your alternator is good.If you read 15 to 16 volts your regulator is over charging the battery. BECAREFULL NOT MAKE ANY SPRKS AROUND THE BATTERY IT CALL EXPLODE, WEAR SAFETY GLASSES.

I change oil when i put it away for winter . Then once a month i remove wire at coil then i crank engine over a few times til i get oil pressure. I put baking soda in pie tins put them inside car and trunk to catch moisture.

Mr Gasket are black you can get them at Autozone.
My rear lights are not that bright in the rear of my car. So i cut some aluminum foil and put in side the tail light housing i could not belive how much brighter the rear lights are now. When i put the car away i will send the housings out and get them replated. But for now it works great.
When i did my third member it fit on a 5 gallon pale then i sprayed it with gasket remover . Let it soak for a while then hosed it off and it removed all the old paint. I used Eastwood detail gray on my leaf springs and they looked good.

I went one year Jim Wicks real puts on a great show.
I emailed the seller and he said the car was one of the first ones built. He said it was the 15th one after they introduced them , the came with a 289 2v and it had the hipo kit installed by the Mercury dealer so that is why it has welded brace under hood and no nine inch rear end.
