For Sale at Auction: 1965 Shelby Cobra in Scottsdale, Arizona

This 1965 Shelby Cobra CSX 6000 roadster is powered by a 427ci Ford FE side-oiler V8 engine paired with a Tremec TKO600 5-speed manual transmission and was constructed in 2013 by Shelby Automobiles, Inc., as an official CSX6000-series component vehicle. The aluminum 427 FE block is engineered to be lighter and stronger than original cast-iron units and features side-oiler lubrication architecture designed to prioritize crankshaft oiling under high load. The chassis utilizes a computer-designed steel frame with dual A-arm, four-wheel independent suspension and coilover dampers, maintaining original Cobra geometry while benefiting from modern materials and improved structural integrity. Equipment includes correct Halibrand-style pin-drive wheels fitted with Goodyear tires, independent suspension, period-correct braking components, a stainless-steel rollbar, black quick-jack mounts, and authentic exterior and interior detailing. The cockpit features a reverse-sweep speedometer, period-style instrumentation and a Derrington-type wood-rim steering wheel, reflecting correct 427 S/C specification. Built using original Shelby blueprints and engineering intent, the CSX6000-series Cobra represents a factory-sanctioned continuation of the big-block Cobra built to modern manufacturing standards while preserving the mechanical character and design of the original 1960s cars.
