Only 65 miles from new, this 1965 Shelby Cobra Backdraft 427
strikes with Volcano Black Metallic paint and silver painted
stripes that frame the shape with clean contrast. Stainless side
pipes trace the lower quarters, while quick jacks and a chrome
LeMans-style fuel cap add track-ready attitude. It rides on 18"
alloy knock-off wheels wrapped in Nitto NT555 tires-245/40R18 front
and 295/40R18 rear. Adjustable coilovers pull the stance down right
where it needs to be.
Black leather bucket seats keep it tight and focused. The chrome
floor shifter and three-spoke wheel make up the business end, while
the dash stays clean and purposeful. A push-button start fires
things off, and the center console houses the battery shut-off. No
radio, no clutter-just the essentials that matter when you're
behind the wheel. With power steering on deck, maneuvering stays
sharp.
An Iconic 427 V8 lives under the body, breathing through a Holley
4-barrel carb and Performer RPM intake. MSD ignition keeps spark
delivery strong, while long tube headers dump into stainless side
pipes. A 5-speed Tremec TKX handles shifting duty, feeding power
into a Ford Super 8.8 rear with 3.55 gears. Adjustable front
coilovers and a fully independent rear suspension keep it planted.
Disc brakes at all four corners-330mm front, 315mm rear-bring it
down when needed.
