1965 Shelby Cobra Additional Info:
This 1965 Shelby Cobra replica delivers that pure V8 roadster feeling you know you love. But as you look at all the race-ready components, you'll also see nice modern touches that add distinction while never taking away from the vintage attitude.
There's no mistaking a proper Shelby Cobra. Big fender flares, racing stripes, a big hood scoop, bright roll bar, and quick-jack bumpers are all part of a package built to take to the track. So this one nails the fundamentals, but there's much more going on here. The dark gray paint is a modern application that has a hint of golden glow. It gives this car plenty of memorable distinction, especially when you're out driving this one in the sunshine. The custom front spoiler and modern alloys are also there to give you distinctive style and added function.
Inside is more of the same attitude. You get the vintage Shelby parts correct with the low-back racing bucket seats, the gearstick angled forward, mounted fire extinguisher, and an open-air cockpit that lets you really hear the side pipes roar. But this one is also an upgraded driver experience with full Simpson racing harnesses, a grippy small diameter sports steering wheel, and a push-button start. The dash is dominated by a full AutoMeter Pro-Comp Ultra-Lite gauge package, with provides the same crisp and clean readouts you get on many modern racecars.
When you look under the hood of a Cobra, there's nothing better to see than proper Ford power. This 302 cubic-inch V8 has a clean and mean look, right down to the ribbed Cobra valve covers. It has the right components you want, including a four-barrel carburetor, deep sump oil pan, serpentine belt system, and a nice cam upgrade. There's even an Optima red top battery mounted in the trunk for better weight distribution. The Tremec five-speed manual transmission gives you full control over the V8's power and muscular soundtrack. The quick ratio on the power rack and pinion steering makes for quick course corrections. Plus, the modern ZR-rated tires and four-wheel disc brakes give you firm control.
Classic style with a hint of modern flair, and it's all part of the raw/real sports car package that keeps the Cobra legendary. That's why this one gets the mix of power and poise right. Call now!
