For Sale: 1965 Backdraft Racing Cobra in St. Charles, Missouri

This 1965 Shelby Cobra replica by Backdraft delivers the kind of presence and performance that made the original cars legendary. Power comes from an iconic 427 Windsor V8 rated at 480 horsepower, paired with a TKX 5-speed manual transmission. The Ford Super 8.8 rear end with 3.55 gears puts that power to the pavement with confidence, making this Shelby Cobra replica feel alive the moment you roll into the throttle.

Finished in Ruby Flare Red with Black Magic stripes and the gloss blackout package, the look is bold without feeling overdone. Ceramic-coated headers, LED lighting, dual roll bars, and a cockpit tonneau cover complete the classic roadster profile. Inside, the black leather interior is clean and purposeful, accented by a Sabelt suede steering wheel. Comfort options include an optional heater, a glovebox, and both driver- and passenger-side mirrors, features that make this 1965 Shelby Cobra easy to enjoy on longer drives.

With just 5,390 miles and single-owner history, this Shelby Cobra for sale has been lightly used and well cared for. It captures the raw character people want in a Shelby Cobra replica for sale, blending timeless style with a setup that performs just as well on the street as on the track.
