Few American sports cars carry the history and reputation of the
Shelby Cobra 427. This 1965 Shelby Cobra CSX6000 brings that
legendary formula into the modern era as an official Shelby
American continuation car, complete with a genuine CSX chassis
number, Carroll Shelby's signature, and fewer than 700 miles.
Unlike an independently produced replica, the CSX6000 series was
built under Shelby American's authority to continue the legacy of
the original big block Cobras. This CSX Shelby stays faithful to
that heritage with a period-correct Ford FE 427 cubic inch Side
Oiler V8 paired with a Tremec 5-speed manual transmission. Black
side pipes deliver the unmistakable sound of Ford's legendary big
block, and Wilwood dual-piston disc brakes provide stopping
power.
The Blue exterior features a chrome single roll hoop, black bumper
jacks, and grey knock-off Cobra wheels with polished lips.
Brand-new Goodyear Eagle Billboard tires complete the traditional
competition-inspired appearance.
Inside, black bucket seats, racing belts, black-faced Shelby
American gauges, and a Shelby wood-rimmed steering wheel create a
cockpit that recalls the original 427 roadsters. Carroll Shelby's
signature adds a special connection to the man behind the car, and
the included Shelby American Statement of Origin documents its
continuation-series identity.
For enthusiasts who appreciate the history of the 1965 Shelby, this
'65 Cobra offers something beyond the usual recreation. With
genuine Shelby American credentials, a 427 Side Oiler, a five-speed
manual, and fewer than 700 miles, this 1965 Shelby Cobra for sale
is a rare chance to own an officially recognized continuation of
one of America's most celebrated performance cars!
