For Sale: 1996 Shelby Cobra in Volo, Illinois

Vehicle Description

This Cobra looks like it was built yesterday. It is very detailed in and out, top to bottom. Only 923 miles since built! Very tastefully done too It looks great in bright red with the Shelby style wheels. It looks like an original. It is a genuine and highly desirable Factory Five, their serial number tag is on the firewall.

EXTERIOR: The body looks great, no damage. It's the 427 version with the fat fenders. The bright red paint looks slick. It has optional bumpers front and back, wing windows, tinted visors, bullet mirrors and the pop-up gas cap. It's a proper looking chrome roll bar. The wheels keep it looking authentic and are wearing BFG tires.

INTERIOR: Very neat and clean. It's fully upholstered: seats, door panels, dash and behind the seats. The carpet was neatly installed. It has a matched set of VDO gauges. Genuine Moto Lita Shelby style steering wheel. It also has a modern stereo and 2 speakers. Correct style shifter.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It has a crate performance 302 motor. It has a hot cam, aluminum intake, polished Holley carb, electronic ignition, and headers. Dressed up with Cobra air cleaner and valve covers. It also has chrome alternator, fuel pump, pulleys, bracket, overflow bottle and plug wire holders. It does run cool with an aluminum radiator and big electric fan. Every part is neatly installed. This is a very proper and tidy compartment.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: It is finished better than most. Under the trunk lid is painted red with an upholstered insert. Inside is carpeted very neatly. It has a trunk prop mechanism as opposed to just a rod.

UNDERSIDE: You could eat off the bottom of this car. It is new and glossy looking. The big tube frame is painted gloss black, the floors are aluminum. Every component looks fresh. It has disc brakes in front, all the lines, hoses, and e-brake assembly. Looking up at the motor everything is fresh, it has a high torque starter. A 5-speed transmission hooks to a new drive shaft. In back is a Mustang 8.8 rear end with a chrome cover. Up front is independent suspension with tubular upper control arms, coilover shocks, rack and pinion steering. In back is a four link with dampeners. Custom fuel tank. It's all new.

SERVICE: We inspected the car and repaired the turn signals, correctly programmed the speedometer, and repaired right rear taillight.

CONCLUSION: These are exhilarating cars! The wind, the roar, the go cart like handling and sling shot like acceleration, this is one of the nicest I've seen, especially for the money. It's very tastefully, meticulously, and authentically done. Good job!

I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car, make an appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car, your admission will be refunded, and you will be given a 1 year membership.
