Vehicle Description
A powerful 427 V8, unique paint, and a low mileage build by a true
race shop: so yes, this 1965 Shelby Cobra by Factory Five is that
serious performance machine built to stand out in any crowd.
Rarely do you see a Cobra in a bold and modern color like this
metallic copper, but once people see it, they'll wonder why they're
not all this way. The deep gloss helps highlight the flared curves
of the legendary Cobra design. Plus, there's more of the classic
Cobra look against the modern paint with shining pieces like the
side pipes, roll hoop, competition gas cap, and Halibrand-style
wheels. It also helps that this whole package has a fresh look
because the build has less than 1,700 miles. And it's the ideal
combination of quality Factory Five components and a professional
build by Robert Pond Motorsports.
And because a Cobra is meant to be open to the world, the interior
continues this premium look while also reminding everyone it's
built for competition. It starts on the bucket seats. They're
finished in a premium leather and they have proper Simpson racing
harnesses. You get a sporty leather-wrapped steering wheel, and the
carbon fiber dash is dominated by your full gauge package. Plus,
this has a heater for those times you're getting out at dawn to be
the first at the car show or racetrack.
Under the hood is a very tidy beast. This is an all-aluminum 427
cubic-inch V8 that was part of the professional build by Robert
Pond Motorsports. It has been enhanced and fortified with 10.75
compression, stage 2 ported heads, roller rockers, hydraulic roller
lifters, and a roller cam. This inhales deeply with an Edelbrock
four-barrel carburetor and Edelbrock intake. It exhales with
authority as headers feed the growling side pipes. Plus, you'll
also spot the right supporting components, like the serpentine belt
system, MSD distributor, and an aluminum radiator w/electric fan.
The transmission is a stout C6 three-speed automatic that can
handle the extra power. Plus, it has upgrades like a separate trans
cooler and Gear Vendors overdrive. Whether on the street or the
track, you'll appreciate features like the strong tubular chassis,
fully independent suspension w/adjustable coilovers, power
steering, and four-wheel disc brakes.
Complete with build manual, 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 today!!!
