Gateway Classic Cars is proud to present this 1965 Shelby Cobra
Replica, a machine that captures the raw spirit and legendary
presence of one of the most iconic sports cars ever created.
Finished in sinister black with bold white racing stripes
stretching from nose to tail, this Cobra commands attention before
the engine is even started. The aggressive stance, timeless
roadster profile, and unmistakable racing heritage combine to
create a car that looks fast standing still.
Slip behind the wheel and you're greeted by a rich brown interior
that provides a striking contrast to the black exterior. The
cockpit is purpose-built, placing the driver at the center of the
action while preserving the classic feel that has made Cobras a
dream car for enthusiasts around the world. Every glance across the
hood reminds you that this isn't just transportation-it's an
experience.
Under the hood sits a freshly rebuilt 302 CID V8 with less than
1,000 miles since completion. The extensive work performed on this
Cobra included a complete engine rebuild along with numerous
supporting upgrades and maintenance items. The fuel system was
serviced with new filters and fuel lines, a new fuel pump was
installed, the ignition system received fresh plugs and wires, and
a new carburetor was fitted and tuned. Additional work included
replacement of the master cylinder, brake service, differential
service, transmission adjustments, cooling system gasket
replacement, and installation of a braided power steering hose. The
result is a Cobra that has benefited from significant mechanical
attention, allowing the next owner to enjoy the unmistakable sound
and character of Ford V8 power.
Backing the 302 is a smooth-shifting 4-speed automatic transmission
that makes this Cobra equally comfortable cruising through town or
stretching its legs on the open road. Power steering enhances
drivability while maintaining the responsive nature expected from a
lightweight roadster.
The Shelby Cobra's racing pedigree is legendary, born from Carroll
Shelby's vision of combining lightweight British sports car
handling with dependable American V8 muscle. Decades later, the
Cobra remains one of the most recognizable performance cars ever
built, and replicas like this allow enthusiasts to experience the
look, feel, and excitement of the original without compromise.
With its fresh 302 V8, extensive recent mechanical investment,
striking black-and-white color combination, brown interior, and
automatic transmission, this 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica offers a
unique opportunity to own a car that delivers both classic style
and exhilarating performance. Whether it's parked at a local cruise
night or carving through winding roads on a sunny afternoon, this
Cobra is ready to make every drive memorable.
