When a 1967 Shelby Cobra replica is this well-built and has all the right features (including a freshly built 302 V8), ell then, esirability is a guarantee. The amazing paint, nd affordable price, s just what's going to make you act quickly to grab this one before some one else discovers it.You could build a replica yourself, ut why bother investing a small fortune if the price is right, nd the body looks this good (and we haven't even talked about the drivetrain)? This is a complete, nd super-straight, oadster finished in a Charcoal Gray that's so fresh you may have dairy products in your fridge that are older than this professional respray. The overall effect is a super shiny package on this American racing icon that's only reinforced by the bright push bumpers in front, nd classic tube rear bumper. Details like the knock-off style wheels, river roll hoop, nd wide fender flares, uggest that it was built for combat, nd the hardware underneath backs up this assumption. But even if you don't turn a wheel on the track, t's certain to turn heads on the street.The interior definitely gets the Shelby attitude right with wrap-around buckets, nd the three spoke wood steering wheel. The gear stick has been bent forward for improved comfort, nd there are power outlets to plug in any essentials (ya know, ike a radar detector.) The full AutoMeter gauge package is critical if you're using your Cobra on the track, ut if not, hey also just look like cool representations of the Cobra's original Smiths readout package. There's no radio, o heater, o A/C this was built with driving in mind, nd it's all about the driving experience and nothing else needs to get in the way. Speaking of the driving experience, he best part of a Cobra is always under the hood. This one is powered by a Ford's legendary 302 cubic-inch V8 that was rebuilt less than 750 miles ago. It's been dressed nicely with the correct Cobra air filter, nd finned valve covers. Beyond just looking good, he motor makes some serious power by inhaling through a four-barrel carburetor, nd exhaling deeply through the powder-coated side pipes. This V8 does a great job of moving the lightweight fiberglass body, nd you can stay in the powerband with ease thanks to the five-speed manual transmission. Of course, ower is nothing without control. That's why this Cobra comes with an aluminum independent front and rear suspension package, orrowed from a Corvette. It's backed up by a four-wheel disc brake package, onnected to wide BF Goodrich tires. But as much as this seems like the perfect racecar, here is another side to this Cobra. With power steering, nd a versatile 3.54 rear end, onnected to the overdrive transmission, his roadster might also be the perfect way to be seen cruising on a Saturday night. It's hard not to get excited about a Cobra that's a great package for the street and the strip. It only gets better once you see the full binder or maintenance and restoration records - including nearly $5K in recent service. Call today!!
