For Sale: 1965 Shelby Cobra in Ft Worth, Texas

Vehicle Description

A September 2023 makeover gave this silver Backdraft Cobra a custom 3M wrap in a shade known as Gloss Plum Explosion, which is further enhanced by black racing stripes. The full blackout treatment includes side pipes, front and rear bumperettes, 17-inch wheels, dual roll bars, light trim, and window trim. Wide 245/45ZR17 Nitto tires lead the charge while massive 315/35ZR17 Nitto tires launch from the rear. Custom heat-shielded side pipes complete the competition-bred exterior.

Black leather racing buckets anchor the cockpit, complemented by suede door panels. A leather-wrapped steering wheel and 5 speed shifter put you in control. VDO gauges and Backdraft floor mats add street refinement while racing harnesses are ready for high-performance maneuvering.

Under the hood, the renowned Roush 427R V8 launches 535 horsepower through a Tremec TKO600 5-speed manual gearbox. A BMW 3-series independent rear end with 3.31 gears transfers power to pavement. Performance coil springs, shocks, and sway bars work with power disc brakes at each corner for total control.
