Vehicle Description
The Carroll Shelby name is no secret in the world of car
enthusiasts. He has a lengthy list of vehicles that had roles in
their development. Some more famous than others and there is few
that would disagree that the Cobra of 1965 is the most prominent of
all his creations. The Shelby Cobra/Daytona was commissioned, built
and driven to do one thing - beat Ferrari in the 24hrs of Lemans.
After the huge success the Cobra was rolled out and continued to
receive significant praises for its power and style. Fast forward
to present times and people were disappointed with the sports cars
that were rolling out of the factories and the lack of excitement
and performance they offered. Entering the market were a handful of
companies building replicas or recreations of famous cars from the
past.
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this stunning Cobra for your
consideration. Titled as a 2008, this kit car is in excellent shape
and was put together very well. The body is in great shape and has
nice paint and trim. Exterior features knock-off wheels with
classic Goodyear tires, dual roll bar hoops, hood scoop, and sun
visors. The interior is nice and simple, with good instruments,
vinyl dash, nice seats, and three point harnesses. The important
bits are the mechanicals, and this Cobra is very well endowed.
Built around a 427cid V8, this car also has a Holley 4bbl carb, MSD
ignition, braided fuel lines, electric cooling can, Optima battery,
and a Holley fuel pump.
Well executed replica Cobras such as the one here, capture the
essence of the Carroll Shelby spirit as each one can be set up to
one's tastes. These cars remain on the bucket list of many and with
