1965 Shelby Cobra Replica

Description

This 1965 Shelby Cobra replica is all about giving you extra. It has extra power from a dual-quad stroker big block, and a five-speed means an extra gear than most others to fully enjoy the power. There's also an extra sleek look to the low-mileage exterior, extra comforts inside, and extra size to accommodate some people who don't often fit well in Cobras. All this means it's time to get extra excited about this roadster.

This Cobra has an instant presence. Everything on this car seems to be about owning the road. Wide fenders, wide tires (especially in the rear,) a large hood scoop, and growling side pipes establish an instant dominance. But what's possibly the most impressive is that this West Coast Dreams Cobra likes to put substance behind the style. So that wider roll hoop not only gives you some added polish, but also beneath the skin, it cradles the fuel cell for added protection. But you may just like this roadster because the low mileage means the quality application of red paint continues to give off a terrific bright shine. Adding to the radiance are the classic white racing stripes, and they are painted on - not decals - for a very clean and permanent appeal. And everything from the fit of the hood to the shine of the polished Torq Thrust wheels drives home a feeling of overall quality.

The interior puts the main focus on the driving experience - just like a Cobra should. That means a woo-rimmed sports steering wheel, a Hurst floor shifter, and a dash dominated by VDO readouts with a large speedo and tach. There's a bit more luxury inside than many others. You have a fully finished interior that includes sculpted bucket seats, well-trimmed doors, wind wings, sun visors, and provisions for a proper heating system (it will need servicing.) There's also an AM/FM/XM stereo with a full speaker system. It's not about creating a Cobra that's a coddler, but you will enjoy the drive that's elevated from a pure competition-style setup.

The fenders may have callouts for a 427 motor because that's proper Cobra etiquette, but that's a bit of a fib. This motor packs EVEN MORE big block displacement. It's a 460 cubic-inch V8 that we're told was stroked out to a monster 545ci total. And beneath the long Cobra air grabber are two Holley four-barrel carburetors. When you have a dual-quad big block like this, you know you want it to sing the ultimate high-octane tune, and that's why you have headers feeding into side pipes. And the five-speed manual transmission means you are the true master of this symphony of power. In fact, this one really wants you to drive it. That's why it comes with good supporting components like an MSD Street Fire ignition, steel braided lines with AN fittings, and an aluminum radiator with dual electric fans. A West Coast's strong reinforced steel chassis, power steering, and strong four-wheel disc brakes are all about giving you confident control over this big power Cobra.

The sale comes complete with nice additions, like the front bumper with an optional grille, accessory details, new harnesses, and two car covers. Extra power, extra comfort, and extra thoughtfulness in the build are all the reasons why you know you have to be extra quick to pick up this deal. Call today!!!
