Authentic 1965 Shelby Cobra 427SC Continuation built by Carroll Shelby.
CSX4948
The Shelby Cobra is arguably one of the world's
most famous and recognizable sports cars today. Today's CSX 4000 Series 427 S/C
component vehicles from Shelby Automobiles, Inc. are everything the 1965 models
were and more. The authenticity of each vehicle is documented by Shelby CSX
numbers and a manufacturer's Statement of Origin (MSO) from Shelby American
signed by Carroll Shelby himself. Era correct coloring Wimbleton White with Guardsman Blue stripes. This is one of
the last to be built and SIGNED by Carroll Shelby. The man sat in this car! Official Shelby registry
and titled in Utah as SHELBY COBRA with
VIN CXS4948. Copy of
original MSO signed by Carroll. Like all of the authentic Continuation Series Cobras, this
one was sold by Shelby American without an engine and transmission (called a “roller”)
and ready to finish with the powertrain of your choice. As a roller this sells for $100k+. Finished by Gregory Motorsports. An authentic 1960’s Cast Iron Ford FE block was
located and built to spec. The block
alone is a collector item and worth a fortune. Producing incredible power, known for running 0-60 in under 4 seconds. Careful consideration was put in to get this
gem to as close to the original build as you can get. Holley carburetor, ceramic-coated side pipes, aluminum radiator, electric cooling fans, oil cooler, Tremec TKO 5-speed
gearbox, 4” round-tube frame, Halibrand-styled knockoff wheels with
street legal tires, coil-over, rack & pinion, Shelby race-quality
brakes, SS rollbar, 'correct' reverse-winding speedometer, original-style
hardwood steering wheel, fiberglass body, Carroll Shelby's personal autograph
on glovebox door! Less than 300 miles. Dry climate stored and like-new. If you're looking for a real Shelby Cobra, built by Shelby
American, Signed by The Man, but don't want to invest a million dollars plus, here's a way to do it.
