1965 Shelby Cobra Midstates Classics Cars

Description

A seriously speedy machine with all the right thoughtful touches and upgrades – that's why you get with this big block 1965 Shelby Cobra replica.

A Cobra is a true racing legend. Sure, the curvy silhouette came from England, but Carroll Shelby was the one who took a lightweight runabout and gave it true aggression with fat fenders and a mean hood scoop. You really get to see that attitude thanks to the tight fit of a quality Midstates body and the sunlight radiating off the metallic blue paint. This one has some bright competition-inspired elements like the dual racing stripes and roll hoop. Plus, these always look nice with the full bumpers finished in a high polish. And what will really get you excited are all the extra pieces, like the genuine competition-style knock-off wheels.

Black seats, carpeting, dash, and even gauge faces really give this Cobra's interior an aggressive dark side. But more than just look great, they also paid attention to details. That's why you have low-back bucket seats with RCI harnesses, fire extinguisher mounted on the rear panel, and the gearstick is correctly tilted forward. Plus, the overall design is made to accommodate taller drivers. The wood and chrome steering wheel is a Cobra favorite, and beyond that, there's a full set of VDO gauges keeping you fully informed. Not only does the racing tonneau cover look great in black, but for those days when you really want to show off, there's also a removable hard top that also comes with the sale.

Under the hood, the big block has a dominating presence with those long 427 polished valve covers and callouts on top. And the 427 V8 side oiler motor is a true racing legend. Plus, it has great go-fast goodies like a Holley 750 double-pumper four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock intake, aluminum heads, and headers feeding the growling side pipes. Plus, it has the right supporting components, like a Canton oil pan, MSD ignition, and a large four-row aluminum radiator w/electric fans. A total power package like this requires the best control. That's why you have a Tremec five-speed manual transmission. There's also a suspension with strong control arms up front and a four-link rear. Plus, you have disc brakes and adjustable coilovers behind each wheel.

This is the low-mileage clean and mean Cobra you've been waiting for. So don't let this deal slip away. Call today!!!
