Vehicle Description
If you're looking for an opportunity to own a true Cobra collector
car, this is the one. Its a modern day time capsule. Shelby
American Inc built fifty, 50th Anniversary, CSX8000 series, Shelby
Cobras to commemorate the original AC Cobra. These cars were
unveiled at a Barrett Jackson auction in 2011 and the entire
production run sold out within a scant 48 hours. They were sold as
a rolling chassis with either a fiberglass body or with an optional
and very expensive all-aluminum body. Only 50 of these cars were
ever built starting with serial number 8950 and ending at 8999.
This Cobra is in virtually showroom new condition and looking
brand-new throughout. Like all of Shelby American's 50th
Anniversary models, it is painted black, just like the original, an
amazing non-metallic, solid jet black with a deep finish, polished
to show finish. The interior features bucket seats covered with
premium red leather, Simpson lap belts and matching red leather
trimmed interior door panels and Wilton wool carpets. A full set of
Stewart Warner instruments compliment the dash and a wood rimmed
steering wheel rounds out the original feeling interior. This
molded fiberglass car features riveted aluminum panels inside the
trunk, hood compartment and on the underside of the car, all
supported by a Shelby 3 inch tubular steel frame. Powered by a
period correct 289 Hi-Po small block V8 engine, with dual stainless
full length exhaust and complimented with Shelby Ribbed Valve
covers. The transmission is a period correct 4-Speed manual
transmission with proper shifter, and is connected to a Dana 44
posi-trac rear end. This car also features Shelby 4-wheel disc
brakes and brilliant chrome, 72-spoke, knock-off wheels with black
wall 205/65R/15 sport tires. The small details that add to this
cars uniqueness are the Authentic 50 th Anniversary Shelby badging
and emblems, custom embroidered floor mats and fitted Cobra trunk
liner, chrome bumpers on front and rear with authentic chrome
grill, chrome plated hood and trunk handles, all of which are in
as-new showroom condition. This is a very rare and unique piece of
Shelby American history. Its a wonderful addition to anyone's
Shelby collection and ready to be enjoyed by the next caretaker.
