Vehicle Description
This 1966 Shelby Cobra replica is the best of both worlds. It's a
highly desirable Factory Five body with low mileage and a modern
fuel-injected 5.0-liter Ford V8. But it's also got that
unmistakable vintage appearance of one of the best all-out speed
machines ever made.
The paint alone instantly makes this one a shining star. The red
pearl with metallic gray painted dual stripes is a modern hue
interpretation of an iconic application. But it's more than just
the stunning red that has you attracted to this one. You already
know that Factory Five Racing makes some of the best Cobras in the
business. So the total execution is a complete and straight
roadster that allows the amazing paint to highlight every curve of
this American racing legend. Plus, it has all the details you want,
including the hood pins, push bumpers, flip up racing gas cap, roll
hoop, and iconic Halibrand-style wheels - that way you're wide-open
roadster will always make a lasting impression.
The interior definitely gets the Shelby attitude right, with new
wrap-around leather bucket seats and full Simpson racing harnesses.
The driver gets the full Cobra experience with the three spoke wood
steering wheel and the shift lever that's been reversed to fit the
driver perfectly. The leather-wrapped dash has a large and clear
full AutoMeter gauge package, which is exactly what you want if
you're going to enjoy this on the track. There's no radio, no
heater, no A/C - this is a competition machine that's all about the
driving experience and nothing else needs to get in the way.
Under the hood is a Ford legend, but a much more recent one than
you find in most Cobras. The 5.0 fuel-injected V8 fires right up
and gives this Cobra a true performance advantage. This motor is
already renowned for power, and there's a huge parts catalog
available to maintain and enhance this V8 on any budget. In fact,
this one has already has performance upgrades such as AFR aluminum
heads, aluminum radiator w/electric fan, Painless wiring harness,
and wrapped headers feeding the rumbling exhaust. And speaking of
the exhaust, the side pipes sound like a personal symphony for
those of us who love to really drive. And thanks to the five-speed
manual transmission, you are the in full control of this concert.
Keeping you connected to the road and on the best racing line is a
race-inspired suspension (independent front, coilover rear). Plus,
you get the control of a four-wheel disc brake package that is
linked to grippy ZR-rated tires.
This is a high-end build, and it has the receipts and maintenance
records to prove it. So while the paint made you fall in love/lust,
the quality of this Cobra will make you appreciate value. Call
