Price: US $10,000.00

Description:

The legend continues with this beautiful, impeccably designed 427 Backdraft Racing Cobra. Sporting the original Guardsman Blue color, Wimbledon White racing stripes and rondels, this car seems more fit for the hairpin turns of Laguna Seca than gracing our humble roads here in Jersey. Even its numbering is an apt choice, for this street serpent's future owner can feel nothing but lucky behind that Mota-Lita wood wheel and the roar of the custom built Iconic 427S Carbureted engine. If this Cobra's looks are not enough to bring car enthusiasts and drivers to tears, the 480 horsepower and 5-speed Tremec Tranny certainly will. Only in a Backdraft Roadster can driver's find the perfect balance of classic nostalgia and modern technology. This Cobra boasts both, all it is missing now is a new garage to call home...
