Built for adrenaline and owned for just 4 years by its previous
caretaker, this 1965 Shelby Cobra Factory Five showcases Jaguar
Racing Green Pearl paint with Silver racing stripes. The fiberglass
body features dual chrome roll bars, polished stainless steel quick
jack bumpers, and custom-mounted Ray Dot side mirrors. The
aggressive stance comes alive with 17-inch Centerline wheels
wrapped in 255/45ZR17 front and 275/40ZR17 rear performance tires,
while the finish line center-rod mirror and windshield wipers add
precision-focused details.
The black vinyl bucket seats anchor a purposeful interior that's
built for performance driving. A modern touchscreen Bluetooth
stereo system provides entertainment while cruising, complemented
by convenient cup holders and a locking center console. The dash
features Legacy and AutoMeter gauges alongside a start button
ignition setup, creating a focused cockpit environment. For added
versatility, this Cobra includes a removable canvas top with side
curtains.
A Saleen/Ford Racing 302ci crate motor rated at 400+ horsepower
leads the mechanical arsenal. The engine features GT40 aluminum
hi-flow heads, E303 hydraulic roller cam, and electronic fuel
injection with a 70mm throttle body. MAC shorty headers feed
ceramic-coated side pipes, while a Vision 3-row radiator with dual
cooling fans maintains optimal temperature. Power flows through a
T5 5-speed manual transmission to a Ford Racing 8.8 rear axle with
FMS posi-traction 3.55 gears. The suspension utilizes coilovers at
all corners, with rack and pinion steering and drilled & slotted
disc brakes for precise control.
