Description for Shelby Cobra - Superformance MK III 1965
For sale is my 1965 Shelby Cobra – Superformance MK III (Fiberglass) w/ Shelby aluminum block FE 427 side oiler motor and MANY extras. Video: http://youtu. be/sFbXTuoDMDE THE CAR This 2008 Superformance Cobra MK III (SPO2814) was purchased from Dynamic Motor Sports of Ross. Ohio in April of 2008 and professionally completed in early 2009. It is what I consider to be the best combination of Indigo Blue with Wimbledon White stripes. Black leather interior. and 3” core ceramic-coated side pipes. No expensive was spared in building this Cobra. I have over $100. 00 in receipts. This Cobra was properly broken in w/proper adjustments made to the motor to include a recent Dyno Tune (see pic). This Cobra has had an oil change every 1000 miles (Joe Gibbs Racing – synthetic). Always securely stored in a climate-controlled garage. ** Registered as a 1965 Ford ** (see pic) THE MOTOR Under the hood is a new Shelby Aluminum block FE 427 side oiler motor professionally built by Performance Engineering of Ross. Ohio that cost $30. 00 to complete (see pic) which was putting out 460 HP and 494 ft/lb TORQUE to the rear wheels (see Dyno pic). This dyno tune was done in Denver. Colorado (5600’ elevation w/91 Octane pump fuel). I moved to Texas last year (500’ elevation w/93 Octane pump fuel) and this Cobra is well into the mid 500’s in rear wheel HP and high 500’s in TORQUE. That’s a lot of power for a car that only weighs 2300 lbs w/driver. - Dynatek Weber 8-stack style electronic fuel injection- Shelby signature series aluminum heads- Scat 4. 250 stroke forged steel crank- Diamond forged pistons (9. 7 to 1)- Shelby signature series aluminum intake manifold- Crane custom hydraulic camshaft- Forged steel H-beam connecting rods- Roller rocker arms and billet stands- Ceramic coated headers- MSD Pro-billet distributor- March pulley set- Shelby aluminum water pump- Remote oil filter w/re-usable filter- Avaid original style oil pan and windage tray (10 quarts)- Upgraded/larger oil cooler and braided steel lines BEST PART - I am able to drive this Cobra around town in Texas during the summer and it WILL NOT over heat thanks to the oversized oil cooler and electric fans. DRIVE TRAIN – rated at over 600 HP - Tremec TKO 600 HD 5-speed with correct shifter- Powder coated blowproof bell housing- McCloud clutch w/alloy flywheel- 3. 73 posi rear EXTRAS - Fuel Safe fuel cell – 17 gal- Polished wheels and true knock offs- NEW - Avon CR6-ZZ tires 295/50R 15 rear 245/60R 15 front (best)- Kill switch – trunk- 2. 5lb Halon fire extinguisher- Paint recently buffed and 3M clear coat protection installed- DJ Safety racing harnesses driver/passenger- Bug screen – Radiator & Oil Cooler- Wood steering wheel w/ Shelby Center cap- Stainless Steel Quick Jacks- Shelby Cobra MK III floor mats- Soft top and tonneau cover – never used- Car cover IN SUMMARY This is a professionally built an properly maintained 1965 Shelby Cobra – Superformance that has over $100. 00 invested and has only 5000 miles of adult/respectful driving (never been on the track – pics from COTA parking lot). It is a show car that can be driven on a daily basis. You won’t have any over heating or fouled plug problems with this Cobra. And it is SCARY fast. I have added a video just cut and paste the address (YouTube). I am happy to answer any questions a SERIOUS potential buyer may have. I’m not interested in trades – just someone that wants to own a Cobra that was built with no expense spared – all you have to do is turn the key. This auction can be stopped at anytime; this car is also being listed locally. Bid with confidence I have 100% positive feedback with over a decade on Ebay.
