For Sale: 1965 Shelby Cobra Backdraft

There's a certain thrill that comes with driving a car that turns heads before you even touch the throttle. The Shelby Cobra is more than a car-it's an icon, a celebration of bold engineering and timeless style that brings together the spirit of classic racing and modern craftsmanship. Imagine yourself behind the wheel, the deep rumble of a V8 echoing through the streets, every drive a nod to heritage and performance. If you're ready to make a statement and create new memories, this 1965 Shelby Cobra Backdraft is waiting for you.

Step inside and you'll find a cockpit designed for the pure enthusiast. The supple leather seats provide comfort and support, while the chrome Hurst shifter and Auto Meter gauges add a touch of race-inspired flair. The interior is in excellent shape, with only minor wear on the driver's bolster and carpet-a testament to careful use. Modern touches like a kill switch between the seats and an accessible fire extinguisher add both style and peace of mind.

Under the hood, this Cobra is powered by a strong Ford Performance 302 V8 paired with a smooth 5-speed manual transmission. The engine bay is impressively detailed, featuring a Holley 4-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock intake manifold, and an aluminum radiator with electric fan for reliable cooling. The power is delivered to the pavement through a well-sorted drivetrain, with all hoses, belts, and soft parts in great condition. Four-wheel power disc brakes and coilover suspension ensure this classic delivers a confident, exhilarating drive every time you turn the key.
