Vehicle Description
A powerful fuel-injected V8, unique paint, and mileage so low that
this only need the first column in the odometer - so yes, this 1965
Shelby Cobra by Factory Five is that serious performance machine
built to standout in any crowd.
The paint on this one tells a very cool story. It's a shade of Go
Mango used on the Viper SRT10, and that car was first envisioned to
be a modern-day Shelby Cobra. So to have a fresh replica build
(completed earlier this year and only 2 miles on the odometer)
carry this modern color seems like the right kind of family
connection. More than just a great story, this deep metallic orange
looks terrific as the gloss helps highlight the flared curves of
the legendary Cobra design. The distinctive matte black stripe
package has been painted on correctly, and you see it in how it
fully encompasses the car - including below the front intake, under
the hood crease, and into the cabin. Those stripes need to be this
complete, because they go with all the other dark details like the
quick jack racing bumpers, roll hoop, and side pipes.
And because a Cobra is meant to be open to the world, the interior
continues this aggressive black look to coordinate with the
exterior accents. This has all the right Cobra pieces, like the
wood grain steering wheel, forward slanting gear stick, and a full
set of gauges - including the correct reversed speedometer. Plus,
you have a pair of racing bucket seats with Simpson five-point
harnesses. So this roadster is ready to get down to speedy
business.
It's always great to see a Ford V8 under the hoods of Cobra, and
this one takes the legend into the modern era. This is a 32-valve
fuel-injected motor, and it has been built correctly with a full
Keith Black package that includes forged pistons, internals, and
aluminum heads. So you have a powerful motor that has been
fortified to handle powerful driving. You get to enjoy the
high-octane soundtrack this creates with the header-fed growling
side pipes. Best of all, you are the conductor of this symphony
with the strong TKO500 five-speed manual transmission. Whether on
the street or the track, you'll appreciate features like the
tubular A-arm front suspension, SVO rear suspension, power
steering, front disc brakes, and the grip of modern ZR-rated
tires.
Complete with title documentation, this is a distinct, powerful,
and absolutely fresh Cobra. You already know what kind of value
this one is, so don't miss your chance. Call now!
