Vehicle Description
We are pleased to offer this exceptional 1999 Shelby Series 1
Roadster equipped with a Supercharged Aurora V8. This incredibly
special car comes directly out of the private collection of Racing
Hall-of-Famer, 3-Time Nascar Cup Series Champion, IndyCar Champion,
and USAC Triple Crown Champion, Tony Stewart. Along with a storied
racing career, 'Smoke' also has excellent taste in collector cars.
This Series 1 (CSX5197) has seen just 356 original miles since new,
making it likely the lowest mileage example in existence. Only 249
on the Series 1 sports cars were built for the 1999 model year, and
only a handful came with the supercharged V8s. Thanks to a body
made of lightweight composite materials and an all-aluminum
monocoque chassis, these cars have an amazing power to weight ratio
and one of the stiffest chassis in the world. The Series 1 is the
only car ever designed, engineered, and built by Carroll Shelby
from the ground up. All other Shelby vehicles are re-engineered
models from other manufacturers that are modified by Shelby, making
this amazing collector car extremely special and sure to climb in
value over time. This pristine Series 1 is ready for a new home,
please call for more details 916-387-9997.
