Few cars have shaped American performance history like the big
block Shelby Cobra. When rivals raised the stakes in the 1960s,
Carroll Shelby and Ford answered by creating an icon: the 427
Cobra. To harness the power of the legendary 427 FE engine, Shelby
re-engineered the Cobra from the ground up-fortifying the chassis,
developing a new independent suspension, and modifying the body to
fit larger wheels and tires. The result? The most revered American
sports car ever built.
The 60th Anniversary CSX6000 Series Cobra's, limited to just 10
pieces, are available to order and create a rare collector's
opportunity. Currently a rolling chassis, it showcases the timeless
427 S/C body, finished in authentic 1965 Championship Guardsman
Blue with Wimbledon White LeMans stripes and polished stainless
steel quick jacks. The new stainless steel 427 exhaust system and
exclusive 60th Anniversary gauge package set this Cobra apart as a
true centerpiece for any collection.
