Description for Shelby Cobra 1965

The GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this striking 1965 Shelby Cobra tribute. This tribute Cobra was created by North American Fiberglass in 1995' using molds pulled from the original cars or bucks. Other features include a clean red paint job, white racing stripes, and a black interior. Powering this vehicle is a strong 302 cubic inch v8 motor, mated to a manual transmission. The vehicle also comes with the orignial paperwork from North American Fiberglass, as well as...2 sets of keys. This beautiful Cobra roadster is a true driver's car. Perhaps no other American manufacturer gained more international recognition than Carrol Shelby. His thirst for performance and the victory circle has made him a household name in all aspects of motorsports. The A/C Cobra is Shelby's crowning achievement. Large horsepower integrated with a lightweight tubular chassis and sexy hand-built aluminum body, with a partnership of AC Motorcars and Ford, Shelby's AC 427 Cobra thundered onto the scene in 1965 offering a big block, high horsepower edition over the already popular 289 small block version that came on the scene two years prior. To this day, the look, sound, power, and feel of the Cobra remains on the bucket list of many motoring enthusiasts and long before original examples far began exceeding 7 figures in value, independent manufacturing companies and talented performance car builders began building replica versions of the famed Cobra.
