Vehicle Description
This 1967 Shelby Cobra replica has all the best pieces, like a
fully independent suspension, four-wheel disc brakes, side pipes, a
well-built 351 V8 under the hood, and a five-speed to control it
all. And all this power is wrapped in one of the most iconic paint
themes around. This is a speed machine designed to get noticed.
Enthusiasts are always on the lookout for a Contemporary Classics
build like this because they know it means quality. Plus, you can
tell there was added care here with everything from the protective
film on the rear fenders to genuine knock-off hubs on the
Halibrand-style wheels. Guardsman Blue is an iconic Shelby cobra
color, and when it's on a low mileage build like this, it is the
perfect look. The paint's gloss gives off memorable shine along the
curvy body, and it only shows signs of moderate use. This car
embraces its extra boldness with the dual racing stripes painted on
top for a permanent competition-worthy attitude. And there's plenty
more attractive performance style with the hood scoop, bright push
bumpers, driver's roll hoop, and pipes add to the intimidation
factor with both their appearance and growl.
The interior is done in black. Everything from the carpeting to the
dash has a look of quality. It is more thoughtfully furnished than
others, including full door panels, side wind wings, and sun
visors. Even the seats are done well with low-back buckets finished
in leather with proper racing harnesses. The dash is dominated by
crisp VDO gauges, including a large tach and speedo. And the
wood-rimmed steering wheel and crisp action of the shifter happily
keep your hands occupied.
