For Sale: 1965 Superformance Cobra in Gordonsville, Tennessee

1965 Superformance Cobra MkIII 427 S/C - Keith Craft 514ci EFI V8, 765 HP

We are proud to offer this exceptional Superformance Cobra MkIII 427 S/C, a beautifully built and highly developed example finished in Royal Blue with twin White stripes. Sitting on 15-inch Halibrand-style wheels wrapped in fresh Mickey Thompson tires, this Cobra combines timeless Shelby styling with breathtaking performance.

Power comes from a Keith Craft-built 514 cubic-inch Ford V8 featuring CNC-ported cylinder heads and an 8-stack electronic fuel injection system. Producing an incredible 765 horsepower and 695 lb-ft of torque, this engine delivers explosive acceleration while remaining surprisingly street-friendly and comfortable on long drives. At 427 Garage, we're fortunate to drive many high-horsepower Cobras, but this one offers a level of performance that leaves a lasting impression.

Over the years, the Cobra has been meticulously maintained and continuously improved. Major service work includes engine and transmission rebuilds, a twin-disc clutch, and a recent tune-up. Performance upgrades include QA1 adjustable shocks, Wilwood brakes, performance sway bars, and a professionally corner-balanced chassis with an impressive 49:51 weight distribution. An upgraded fuel system with a catch tank ensures reliable fuel delivery, even under aggressive driving.

Unlike many high-performance builds, this Cobra has been driven and enjoyed as intended. Its outstanding service history reflects years of careful ownership and thoughtful maintenance, making it an exceptionally well-sorted car that's ready for its next adventure.

Touring equipment includes a soft top, side curtains, tonneau cover, and heated seats, making it as enjoyable on weekend road trips as it is on spirited back-road drives.

The Cobra is titled as a 1965 Shelby Cobra in Tennessee and, having been built 27 years ago, is eligible for import into Canada and many European countries.
