Vehicle Description
Gateway Classic Cars of Milwaukee is proud in presenting this
Superperformance 1965 Cobra. While one could go on forever on the
history of a tall lanky man by the name of Carroll who designed one
of the most iconic roadsters of all time in terms of appearance and
performance; it would be far more appropriate to talk about this
superior recreation that has improved almost every aspect of a car
that is now regarded as one of the most legendary things on 4
wheels. Since the founding date in 1996, Superperformance has
gained a reputation in building replica cars of extremely high end
cars that are arguably superior to the originals they are meant to
represent including models such as the Cobra MKIII, MKII, Shelby
Daytona Couple, GT40, and a convincing recreation of the legendary
1963 Corvette Grand Sport. Ontop of nostalgia, the cars are offered
with different packages and features that may not have been offered
on the cars before such as air conditioning, power brakes, power
steering, etc. while maintaining superior quality to all the
competitors. This gorgeous Cobra captures the iconic look they came
with featuring the glossy blue paint that is set off by those white
super stripes that go up the middle of the car. Everything on the
outside of this beast could easily could speak to a purist from the
real knock off wheels, to the black powder coated side pipes, to
the Smiths gauges, all the way down to the forward oriented shifter
that pays true homage to the way these cars were setup. The
tasteful liberties taken aren't even brought up until you'd lift
the hood and find a 358ci V8 built to stock car specifications with
a 13 quart dry sump oil system to support the behemoth 600+
horsepower output this puts through a 4-speed manual transmission.
The Cobra only weighs in the neighborhood of 1900 pounds; let that
sink in for a moment. This car has the looks of the past like it
was built yesterday but the performance to suggest that it's trying
to leave ground. To say that this car is one of a kind is a true
understatement and you'll be hard pressed to find another Cobra
built as beautifully as this one. Call today and see how you can
own something so unique and beautiful that you'll have trouble
letting someone so much as breathe in its direction.
