Description for Shelby Cobra Replica 1965
The Shelby Cobra is perhaps the purest expression of automotive performance ever put on the streets. But when you look at the time, oney, nd effort it takes to build your own, ou'll realize how much you really just want a replica like this one with a 302 V8 and an irresistible price.Factory Five got the formula right adding welcomed amounts of room without taking away from the classic Cobra proportions. You'll feel the difference the moment you sit behind the wheel, ut more on that in a moment. First, ust marvel at the company's 20 years of fiberglass Cobra knowledge. They understand the gentle European curves originally created by AC, nd the aggressive fenders and hood that Carroll Shelby needed to harness all that added power. This body looks exceptional in dark blue, nd more importantly, t has some serious durability from Factory Five. This one also gets the details right. The dual white stripes are an iconic touch, ut they have a unique silver edging to match the dual roll hoops. Of course the item that shines the brightest are the five-spoke Cobra R wheels. Plus, t wouldn't be a competition-style car without a flip-up gas cap.It keeps a traditional appearance inside with the low-back bucket seats, acing seatbelts, nd forward curved gearshift. A wood-rimmed steering wheel re-creates the Cobra look, nd the dash offers a full array of Auto Meter gauges. For the driver this feels like a pure performance machine right down to the fire extinguisher on the transmission tunnel. But just in case your passenger needs a little entertainment, here's also a Pioneer AM/FM/CD stereo system to keep everyone going.Under the hood is a strong 302 cubic-inch V8 with the great iconic Cobra valve covers and performance air filter. Best of all it's been barely broken in with less than 9,000 miles since the motor was built. This one breathes nicely thanks to a four-barrel Holley carburetor and long tube headers. It all exits in polished side pipes so you can hear this awesome growl just as good as everyone else. Keeping all of this power under control is the five-speed manual transmission, our-wheel disc brake package, nd grippy BF Goodrich g-Force tires. Even the battery has been relocated to the trunk so the weight distribution is better in the corners.This has all the good looks of a Cobra from 1965 but on a Florida 2003 title. So this is retro fun with more modern components in a beautifully built package. Hurry up before someone else recognizes this value price. Call today!!!
