V8 Toploader Manual NASCAR Classic Vintage Collector Carroll Blue Ford Track

1967 Shelby Cobra Contemporary Description

This 1967 Shelby Cobra is not only from the masters at Contemporary Classic, but also it has a performance-built 427 V8, race-quality four-speed, four-wheel disc brakes, and a fully independent suspension. It makes for a Cobra that's both quite accurate and exceptionally powerful.

The Contemporary Classic Motor Car Company is famous for remarkably accurate Cobra replica bodies. It helps them continue to command attention and respect. That's why this one is so instantly striking. It's also attractive for its shining and iconic color combo. While some replicas have a deeper shade of blue, we bet you like how this lighter color looks against the white stripes. After all, it's this the exact kind of car we always see Carroll Shelby driving in the old promo films, right? In fact, speaking of the classic look, the brightwork nails the vintage appearance, too. The front bumper that surrounds the grille, single roll hoop, and curved rear bumper are all equal parts graceful and functional. Finish it off with knock-off style wheels, and you a have a true competition machine that absolutely looks the part.

Black leather racing buckets and competition lap belts are exactly what you love to see in a classic Cobra. And when you sit down, you get the full experience. Your left hand will love the correct wood and chrome three-spoke steering wheel with Cobra center cap. And your right one may never want to leave that shifter that's correctly angled forward. True Cobra fans know a dash full of Smiths gauges is the proper way to celebrate this icon. There are even side curtains and a soft top in case you get caught out in the rain on a fun day out on the back roads.

When you look under the hood of a Cobra, there's nothing better to see than bold Ford power. This 427 cubic-inch V8 looks race-ready with ribbed Cobra valve covers and the air grabber sitting in a box to seal to the hood scoop. Ford Motorsport plug wires, steel braided line, AN fittings, an Earls Performance oil cooler, and a Howe racing aluminum radiator are all part of this competition-ready setup. This is a true performance motor where the big block is enhanced with a Demon 850 four-barrel carburetor and Edelbrock intake. And the headers add extra power before giving the side pipes a thunderous roar. You can stay in the powerband with confidence thanks to the NASCAR-spec built toploader four speed manual transmission. Of course, power is nothing without control. That's why this Cobra comes with strong A-arms up front with adjustable coilovers and disc brakes. And the rear is a strong Jaguar independent setup with inboard brakes for better weight distribution. Add in the grip of wide BF Goodrich tires, and you soon realize this is a fast machine that also knows how to also handle the corners.

This one is competitive fun on the street or track. A Cobra finished to this level is a dream for a lot of us, so hurry up before one of the most impressive builds gets snatched up by someone else. Call today!!!
