Vehicle Description
This 1967 Shelby Cobra replica has a performance-built 460 V8,
four-speed toploader, stout chassis/suspension, and four-wheel disc
brakes. It makes for a powerful track-inspired car that you'll love
to drive. But as you dig deeper, you'll see a sleek style and the
right details that make this great to show, too.
This car makes a striking first impression, and that has to do with
the radiant paint. We're told the entire car was painted white, and
the red was laid on top. And of course plenty of clear on top. It
gives this an exceptionally slippery shine, and so it looks
fantastic as the light evenly rolls across the iconic flared fender
style of this car. And the overall quality of the fit and finish is
quite good because Antiques & Collectibles has a reputation for
making enviable fiberglass bodies. This one is also a detailed
build with side wind wings, full side curtains, and a convertible
soft top. Most of the polished eye candy is also functional, like
the quick-jack bumpers, a roll hoop, and side pipes. Plus, those
Halibrand-style wheels look terrific, especially with the stance
that comes from the extra meaty rear set.
Just like the exterior, the interior is quite clean and attractive.
You have good competition-ready features like the contoured bucket
seats, a wood-rimmed sports steering wheel, and proper Simpson
racing harnesses. The total package is the right mix of vintage and
updated. For example, this now has a tilt steering column, which
wasn't found on the originals or many of today's reproductions. It
gives you a clear view of the gauges, and they are the classic
Smiths units that even have the correct reversed speedometer that
Carroll Shelby put in his cars.
When you look under the hood of a Cobra, there's nothing better to
see than a Ford big block. This 460 cubic-inch V8 is an enhanced
unit that includes a Holley four-barrel carburetor and Weiand
Stealth intake. There are also nice supporting components like Ford
Motorsport SVO valve covers, steel braided lines, and an aluminum
radiator with dual electric fans. The headers add extra power and
they also deliver a terrific rumble out of the side pipes. It's a
seriously powerful motor, and you can stay in the powerband with
confidence thanks to the toploader four-speed manual transmission.
So it's the kind of Cobra that will have you thinking about track
days. Four-wheel adjustable coilovers, four-wheel disc brakes, a
boxed steel frame, and a stout suspension setup makes for quite a
racecar package.
This one has a track-ready feel and a stunner kind of style. It
makes for a true Cobra feeling that's truly irresistible. Call
