1965 Shelby Cobra 427
The Shelby Cobra 427 is probably the "craziest" car, as it's very light, basically made by an insanely powerful engine mated to a chassis and a fiberglass body. This one has been produced in 2006 by HRE as chassis number 4889. This car is registered as an 1965 Shelby Cobra and it is offered with build documents, service records from new, Certificate of Authenticity, Manufacturer’s Statement of Origin, and a clean New York title.
Remember about that engine? Well, it's quite something, 427 cubic inches V8, all-aluminum, engine with aluminum heads manufactured by Shelby of America and it is stroked to 482 cubic inches, topped with a fuel injection unit (eight stack) manufactured by TWM, which rebranded as Borla, delivering 620 horsepower and 613 lb-ft of torque. The power is transported to the wheels through a five speed manual transmission (Tremec TKO 600) and a custom driveshaft.
A nice and very useful extra which has been added right when the car has beeni nitially purchased is the 3M PPF(paint protection film) and it covers most of the car, I could send in depth photos if anyone would like to focus on this specific detail; I think it is the most important detail considering that the car is black.
The interior features black leather, detachable steering wheel, a short shifter, kill switch (hidden), fuel pressure gauge, fuel gauge, battery mounted in the trunk, defroster, door pockets and a fire extinguisher. Since it is a high performance vehicle the driver seat can be lowered by bolting it to the floor, using stock holes, to increase the leg room which also involves removing the rails in the process.
The maintenance is highly considered as the previous tuneup has been done roughly 9 months ago and included battery & spark plugs replacement, fuel filters, engine oil & filter, the other fluids have been checked, and a valve adjustment has been done just to be sure that everything runs clockwise. In the same respect the chassis has been painted, the frame rails have been primed (epoxy) not before they have been prepped & cleaned.
Everything we can say that this is a top notch vehicle with an authenticity certificate issued by Shelby American bearing Carrol Shelby's signature. The documents folder consists also in the build papers, the Manufacturer statement of origin, clean title
and documents.
This is a brand new car which was bought by the owner in 2019 but rarely got to drive it therefore it only has around 5,6k miles and the decision has been reached by the family to part ways with it due to the inability of the owner to drive it any longer.
All our cars are delivered with fresh fluid change, tuneup and a list of recommendations for better preserving the car in the future.
