1965 Shelby Cobra Factory Five Description

A seriously speedy machine with all the right thoughtful touches and upgrades - that's why you get with this fuel-injected 1965 Shelby Cobra replica. A Cobra is a true racing legend. Sure, the curvy silhouette came from England, but Carroll Shelby was the one who took a light weight runabout and gave it true aggression with fat fenders and a mean hood scoop. You really get to see that attitude thanks to the tight fit of a quality Factory Five... body and the sunlight radiating off the metallic blue paint. In fact, there's even protective film over the nose, so you see even less use than already expected from a low mileage machine. This one has some bright competition-inspired elements like the dual racing stripes and highly polished Halibrand-style wheels. But you'll also notice this one has a dark side. The jack bumpers, roll hoop, and menacing side pipes grab attention because you rarely see them finished in black like they are here. All those dark accents outside also coordinate very nicely with the interior. Black seats, carpeting, dash, and even gauge faces really continue this Cobra's aggressive dark side. But more than just look great, they also paid attention to details. That's why you have low-back bucket seats with four-point Simpson racing harnesses, a rear-mounted fire extinguisher, and Cobra insignia floor mats. The wood and chrome steering wheel is a Cobra favorite. Plus, even the updates get the style correctly. You see this on how the newer gearstick is still bent forward, and the full AutoMeter gauge package still has the reversed speedometer. Not only does the racing tonneau cover look great in black, but for those days when you really want to show off, there's also a removable hard top that also comes with the sale. A new Ford 347 cubic-inch motor was part of the budget when this was built in 2004. Not only is this a terrific fuel-injected V8, but it's also been enhanced and fortified with ARP bolts, aftermarket heads, MSD ignition & distributor, and an aluminum radiator with electric fan to keep it all running cool. Those header-fed side pipes add both power and thunder to this Cobra. Best of all, you're in complete control over the soundtrack and the V8's fury with the Tremec TKO500 five-speed manual transmission. In fact, speaking of control, you also have great features like four-wheel disc brakes, coliovers, tubular A-arm front suspension, and a three-link rear. Complete with build receipts and service manuals, this is the clean and mean Cobra you've been waiting for. So don't let this deal slip away. Call now!
