For Sale: 1965 Shelby Cobra in Irvine, California

Vehicle Description

CSX4896
Shelby American introduced the fire-breathing big block Cobra in January 1965, instantly making it the standard for performance vehicles. From the computer-designed independent suspension to the all-new frame, luscious bodywork and enormous powerplant, the mighty Shelby Cobra was considered by many to be the most desirable sports car in the world.

Shelby American began offering the big block Shelby Cobras again in 1996 and CSX4896 is one of the lowest mileage sports cars ever built. The roadster's durable fiberglass body wears deep Rangoon Red paint and the odometer reads an amazing 14 miles since it rolled out of the factory.

The car was built with purity and originality in mind. The transmission is a 4-speed Top Loader mated to a 428 Super Cobra Jet Ford V8. The car rides on 15? Halibrand-style knock-off wheels with high-performance tires.

The low-back bucket seats are trimmed in black. The wood-rimmed steering wheel is offset nicely by Smith and Lucas gauges. The Shelby even includes the optional 16-gallon fuel cell.

Shelby Cobra CSX4896 has 14 miles and has never been titled; it is for sale on the original Carroll Shelby signed MSO and is available for $184,950.
