Description:


Up for sale is this beautifully created & designed 1965 Backdraft Racing 427 Shelby Cobra. This car was custom built by BackDraft racing of Boynton Beach, Florida back in 2013. This Cobra has exactly 8, 446 miles on its brutally powerful and roaring loud, 550 Horsepower Roush 427R engine. With its 550 horsepower the car produces 524 lbs-ft of torque to the rear wheels and sends you flying. When this car was built, I added every option that I possibly could and I did not spare even $1 in the building of this car. This Cobra is the true definition of an American Muscle car!!! Every car show, you pull up and see 2 blue Shelby cobra’s, 1 silver, maybe 3-4 red ones and a yellow one here and there. You gotta ask yourself this question and be honest with yourself. When was the last time I saw an insane, bright, bad ass, Lamborghini freshly repainted Ithaca Verde Green 427 Shelby Cobra????
The cars transmission is the Tremec TKO 600 manual shift, 5 speed transmission. The Roush engine (Engine # 427-1089) came crate built by SpeedFanatix with a half polished finish and puts out 550 horsepower, 498 horsepower to the rear wheels and has 524 pounds of Torque. This car is (Ithaca Verde Green) aka Lambo Green with 2 jet black racing stripes. The car has been equipped fully with BackDraft’s BLACKED OUT Edition which makes the car an RT3-B “BLACK EDITION”. The Side pipes, side rear view mirror, black racing stripes to its roll bar are all blacked out. The car has also been equipped with the best brakes and braking system that was offered from the BD factory and that is the Wilwood BIG BRAKE KIT. Which includes the famous Wilwood Brake calipers and the Willwood complete breaking system.
The car will come with the Back Draft Racing Build book. This build book will have every piece of information from when the car was built. The book contains the entire build sheet for the car from the BDR manufacturing. The full dyno records and engine build sheet from Roush Racing. This is a very exquisite car and is built by the best in the game hands down, Back Draft Racing!!!
The car just received a $9, 000 full body paint job. All the same colors, with the original stripes but even better. The original paint on the car was good, but now it is GREAT ! The car was at the best local paint and body shop getting this FULL EXTERIOR MAKE OVER. The car looks showroom condition, actually better than the day it was dropped off to me back in 2013. I have the clear, no issues, state of Florida car title in hand and ready to go!!!!
Due to insurance purposes, THIS CAR HAS NEVER BEEN TRACKED. THE CAR HAS NEVER SEEN OR SET EVEN 1 WHEEL ON A TRACK. I have only driven this car locally and to a few local car shows. The car was originally built in memory of my father. It was his dream to have a 427 Shelby Cobra, however he could never afford one. After his passing, I made his dream come true. His dream car model/make was always a 427 Shelby Cobra (Because he always used to tell me, there is nothing lighter and or as brutally powerful as a 427 Shelby Cobra) along with my dream color/car which is the Iconic Lamborghini Verde Green. After 3 wonderful years of owning/driving this gorgeous car, my wife and I are now expecting our 3rd child, so there is no more time or space in our family for this car.

“This car just received a $9,000 FULL EXTERIOR paint job. Only issue with this car would be the rear tires are low on tread but, they have not been replaced because they are similar to slicks now and grab the road MUCH MUCH better. The car is not driven in the rain, no need for tread. The more rubber that meets the road the BETTER!”
