Shelby Cobra replica (unfinished)
1965 Shelby Cobra Description
Relisted due to non payment, please verify you have funds and ask any questions prior to purchasing:
This was a completed cobra that had an engine fire and was disassembled:
Paul Bennett first generation frame with Jaguar IRS installed with 4 piston wilwood disc brakes, driver side roll bar, side exhaust pipes, front suspension with disc brakes and 2 American racing wheels.
The frame is in great shape, it was cleaned and powder coated, the Jag rear end is in great shape but could use new bushings all the way around, it has a limited slip with approx 3.50 gearing, the rear disc brakes are in good shape as are the rear coilovers (they need to be cleaned up as they had some burned fiberglass gel drip on them). The front suspension is from an MGB and is missing the top upper control arm mounts. There are many aftermarket arms and coil/coilover setups that will work with this front end and I can supply you with the link to those parts if requested. The front brakes are no good as they overheated but can be used as a core for new ones and to match part numbers. The LeMans flip cap is included as well as a driveshaft that is a 28 spline from a Borg Warner T5.
I was planning on building this up without a body, kinda like an Ariel Atom but you could always source a body from Factory five or Kirkham and fit it on this frame. I have too many projects and can't focus on this right now.
No title, but I can provide a bill of sale to make it easy to register once it's finished
offered for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early.
Send me a message if you need it shipped to coordinate that
