Superformance 427 Cobra SC Mark III, Car number SPO1853
1965 Shelby Cobra 427 Description
Hello, and welcome to my listing.
This listing is for the Superformance 427 Cobra, car number 1853, you see here in the photos. I have owned it for 6 years and it is time to find it a new home. I am moving into a condo in the future and will not have a garage.
This car was built by the Superformance Factory in South Africa in 2004 and delivered to a Superformance dealer in Ohio. Not built in someone's garage, but on an assembly line for quality and consistency.
The drivetrain is a Ford 427 cu. in. 535 hp. crate motor bought new from Ford and installed just 650 miles ago.
The Weber induction system was ordered from, built and tuned by Jim Inglese, master Weber guru from Connecticut. Once adjusted properly, it is set and forget.
The transmission is a manual 5 speed Tremec with reversed Ford Galaxie shifter. 5th gear being overdrive. 4 Wheel independent coil over adjustable shock suspension. Ford 8.8 Posi rear end. Stainless steel fuel tank.
Just like all Superformance Cobras, it is true to the originals with correct gauges, windshield, shifter, steering wheel, pedals, seats, real knockoff pin drive wheels, etc. This one has the glovebox signed by Carroll Shelby with a certificate of authenticity included. Superformance is the only replica marque that was authorized by Shelby.
The car includes the factory tonneau cover and the factory soft top. Fully carpeted trunk with Optima Battery.
The car drives as it should and retains it's original tires installed at the factory. It has never been tracked or even driven in the rain.
A new pair of matching Goodyear Eagle GTII rear tires is also included with the sale. Current license plate is CSX 427 (Mass.)
The car comes with the expanded owner's manual and all paperwork and receipts. It is currently titled as a replica with a clear title and the car requires only a yearly safety inspection here in Massachusetts.
Buyer is responsible for any transportation needed. A $500. security deposit is required upon purchase.
