In 1964, Shelby started working on Shelby Cobra 427, an even more
extreme version powered by a monstrous Ford big block 7 litre
engine with around 450 bhp and over 600 Nm of torque. It was insane
to put this kind of power in such a light car, but Shelby was not
the guy who cared about sanity of his vehicles. He rightfully
thought that there is no such thig as too much power and he was
determined to build an ultimate classic muscle car. Instaling a 427
V8 proved to be more difficult and Cobra body needed to be
stretched and widened with necessary improvements to the chassis
and suspension. The overall design remained the same, but although
289 and 427 Cobras looked very similar, none of the body panels,
except for hood, trunk and windshelid, are interchangeable.
