1965 Shelby Cobra Factory Five

Description

This 1965 Ford Shelby Cobra replica is about style and substance. The Factory Five body has bright and distinct paint, and under the hood is upgraded V8 power you're going to love. It creates exactly what you want from this performance icon, including an obtainable price.

Big fender flares, hood scoop, side pipes, and a front end that looks like it's out to consume everything ahead: Cobras have an instant look of power. And this Factory Five Cobra seems to really maximize this whole impression. The slick red paint looks terrific. It's a shade borrowed from Toyota, and so there's added distinction in the boldness. Plus, the iconic stripes are done in silver for more stand out flair. And because the full paint package was cleared over, the sunlight loves to roll evenly across the body panels. In fact, the only thing to outshine the paint is the brightwork on the roll hoop, bumpers, wheel trim rings, and polished side pipes.

The black interior looks great against the red. It also helps that this is in such nice condition. The driver gets the full Cobra experience with the low-back bucket seats, full racing harness, three spoke wood steering wheel, and the shift lever that's been curved forward. The AutoMeter gauges even have a classic look. They are properly laid out, right down to the correct reversed speedometer.

Under the hood is true Ford power. You might have the classic air topper with 289 callout, but this is a larger 302 cubic-inch motor. This Ford Racing V8 has all the right go-fast goodies, like GT40 aluminum heads, Stealth aluminum intake, and an Edelbrock 600 CFM four-barrel carburetor. It also has the right supporting components, like aluminum pulleys, and an Optima red top batter mounted in the trunk for better weight distribution. You'll love the sound the side pipes make when you fire up this roadster. And you're in complete control of this motor's fury and thunder thanks to the Tremec five-speed manual transmission with HD clutch kit. Because this is built for stout driving, you have desirable features, like a strong tubular steel chassis, Koni coilover shocks, and four-wheel disc brakes.

Complete with thousands $$$$$ in build receipts, this is an awesome Factory Five Cobra built with distinction. It's titled as a 2004 Special Construction. So don't miss this deal, call today!
