Vehicle 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!
