Vehicle Description
Freshly built in 2021 by TR TEC of South Africa, this 1965 Shelby
Cobra 427 Backdraft combines raw muscle with world-class
craftsmanship. Gleaming in Eminent Pearl White paint with bold
Rosso Competizione stripes slicing through its curves, this
roadster drops jaws at every corner. The muscular stance comes
alive with 18" knock-off wheels wrapped in sticky 245/45ZR18 front
and 295/40ZR18 rear tires that plant this beast firmly to the
pavement. Chrome side pipes flank the body, while the driver roll
bar adds both safety and style to complete the look that made these
cars legendary on both street and track.
German leather in Rosso Red wraps the interior with racing-inspired
luxury. The wider seats grip your body through hard corners while
the wood steering wheel connects you directly to the front wheels.
Black 4-point safety harnesses keep you locked in position when
pushing the limits. Every touch point exudes quality - from the red
leather dash to the black carpeted center console and special
touches like the optional glove box, lowered driver side floor box,
and recessed rear wall. The master kill switch sits within easy
reach on the center console, ready for track day action.
The monstrous Iconic-built 427 V8 pumps out a staggering 500
horsepower, making this roadster brutally quick by any standard.
Modern Holley Sniper electronic fuel injection provides instant
throttle response backed by the precision of a Tremec TKX 5-speed
manual transmission. The engine bay looks as good as it performs
with brushed aluminum valve covers, an aluminum air cleaner,
ceramic coated headers, and chrome accessories throughout. MSD
ignition delivers reliable spark while the independent coilover
suspension front and rear (with BMW rear independent design) keeps
all four corners planted when the road gets twisty.
