FRESHLY BUILT FACTORY FIVE, 550 HP ROUSH 427 V8, TREMEC T5 5 SPD, SHOW QUALITY

1964 Shelby Cobra Factory Five Description

Sometimes it feels so good to be the villain. After all, a 1964 Shelby Cobra Factory Five replica already has an intimidating look. But when you add a ferocious 427 Roush V8 and the full blackout color theme, this one really knows how to be the aggressor. Rarely do you find a Cobra finished in a slick black. That's because you need a terrific body, like the one provided by the experts at Factory Five. Plus, it takes...a professional had applying it. That's why there was over $6k invested in the paint alone, and with less than 5,600 miles added since then, it still retains the look of onyx. So you'll love the way the light dances off the classic body as it highlights the aggressively flared fenders, large hood scoop, and all the other curves you love on an iconic Cobra. And while items like the quick-jack bumpers were also finished in black, they did leave room for some brightness. It just now highlights some of the best competition-inspired pieces like the Halibrand-style wheels, roll hoop, and large side pipes. The full midnight presentation continues inside with a pristine black interior. This has all the right pieces with wrap-around bucket seats and Simpson five-point racing harnesses. The driver gets the full Cobra experience with the three spoke wood steering wheel and the shift lever that's been curved forward to fit the driver perfectly. There's even a crisp set of AutoMeter gauges with the speedometer action reversed, just like a proper Cobra. When you lift the hood, the air topper and valve covers announce that your big block was built by true performance masters at Roush. And they enhanced and fortified this 427 cubic-inch V8 to be a true performance star. It includes Roush CNC ported aluminum heads, hydraulic roller camshaft, forged crank, forged H-beam rods, forged pistons, MSD ignition, and topped with a large 770 CFM Holley four-barrel carburetor. There are even the right supporting performance components like a lightened flywheel and Ron Davis aluminum radiator. The full package was balanced and dyno tuned to 550 horsepower, and the growl of the side pipes lets the world know about this power superiority. You get full control over this monster V8 thanks to the Tremec T5 HD five-speed manual transmission with Mcleod clutch and pressure plate assembly. And this whole package is ready for the track thanks to a strong independent front suspension, tubular arms in rear, and adjustable coilovers at each wheel. Plus, with four-wheel disc brakes and wide BF Goodrich T/As, stopping power is well in-hand. The sale comes with build receipts, service manuals, and maintenance records. It all adds up to one very mean all-black machine. So if you like to have a sinister side, call today!
