For Sale: 1965 Shelby Cobra in Concord, North Carolina

When you're looking for a Cobra that's both speedy and bold, this is the one. With a hardy V8, bright style, five-speed, and plenty of side pipe growl, this one will always leave an impression.

This gets the Cobra attitude right. Wide fenders, wide tires, a big hood scoop, and an even bigger roll hoop - there's no mistaking this for anything but a serious machine. But what you'll also see is some added boldness from the right investments. For example, a color name like Chili Pepper Red is absolutely going to stand out, especially when it's a newer application done in 2015. And this one has some nice added polish. It's in places you expect like the bumpers, but this once has a bright shine on the side pipes and knock-off style wheels that you don't get in many of the others. So the full package is the right mix of fearsome and flair.

The competition-style attitude continues inside. Low-back bucket seats, a dash full of VDO gauges, and a grippy sports steering wheel make you feel race-ready. And the shifter falls exactly where you want your right hand to be. But the more time you spend in this Cobra, the more you see some details that make all the difference. The full door panels and extra legroom make this more accommodating. And it's even wired and ready for you to install whatever modern stereo you want.

You'll love lifting the hood to show off the extra tidy engine bay. And this has the ribbed Cobra valve covers and matching long air grabber that's pure classic cool. As you dig deeper, you'll discover a 302 cubic-inch V8 upgraded with the right go-fast goodies like Edelbrock aluminum heads, an Edelbrock intake, an MSD 6AL ignition, and topped with a Holley four-barrel carburetor. And the headers feeding the side pipes unleash a ferocious growl. The five-speed manual transmission puts you in firm control of the power and its high octane soundtrack. As you look underneath, you'll see a strong boxed steel frame, a Mustang II-style A-arm front suspension, and Fox-style four-link rear. Plus, front disc brakes, wide BF Goodrich T/As, and rack & pinion steering make for a solid driver's package.

This is the classic-style Cobra with the updates/upgrades you really want. It's even titled as a 1990 vehicle. So if you want power, sleekness, and even some added comfort, don't miss this deal. Call now!
