For Sale: 1965 Shelby Cobra in Foristell, Missouri

Vehicle Description

1965 Backdraft Racing 427SC Roadster, chassis number BD1195, finished in Sterling Grey with Stuttgart Silver stripes and black interior. Meticulously maintained with 9,430 miles on the odometer and service being completed every 1,000 miles. Built in 2013, this replica Shelby Cobra from Backdraft Racing provides a raw, analog and exhilarating driving experience like nothing else on the road.

Power comes from a Vintage Racing VMS 427X power plant, providing a robust & reliable 515hp/530 ft.lbs of torque at the crank and 456hp/469 ft.lbs at the rear wheels. The lightweight nature of the car provides massive power to weight numbers – this car is seriously fast. All this power is delivered to the pavement through a 5-speed Tremec TKO-600 transmission and BMW E-36 independent rear suspension (with limited-slip differential) and Halibrand-style 18” knockoff wheels wrapped in Nitto NT555R tires (245/40ZRx18" front; huge 335/30ZRx18" rear).

Other features include: Ford Racing ribbed aluminum/matching air cleaner and valve covers, polished turning assemblies, new ceramic exhaust with wrapped headers (not pictured), chromed overflow coolant tank, black braided SS hoses with coordinated black ANSA fittings, rich black leather upholstery with heated seats, original-correct Moto-Lita–styled hardwood-rimmed handcrafted steering wheel, AutoMeter blackface gauges, Crow 4-point harnesses, electrical cutoff switch under dash, upgraded billet knobs, Hurst short-throw shifter with ceramic 5-speed knob for more direct control (you also get a traditional shifter with billet knob), cockpit tonneau and full custom car cover included, custom Rockford Fosgate sound system with six individual cockpit speakers and controller and marine audio, removable powered subwoofer and professional amp/sound board in carpeted trunk
