Arguably one of the best meetings ever in the history of the Muscle Car....The AC Ace and the Chicken Farmer!
The sensational Cobra was Carroll Shelby's baby, and was of course a highly successful road racer, which became an instant legend!
This simply stunning recreation of the famous wide body 1965 427 Cobra is an absolute credit to its builders, the quality of the build and attention to detail is excellent, and the car has clearly been treated with respect, as after ten plus years on the road it still looks virtually as new today.
The body is a quality glass reproduction, and it is fitted over a custom fully boxed integrated space frame style assembly, which has been fitted out with Jaguar XJ6 front and rear suspension assemblies, giving a superior ride, and also full four wheel independent suspension with four wheel power assisted disc brakes.
The body has clearly had a lot of preparation work carried out before having a really nice quality coat of bright flame red applied, and it still looks almost as new, complemented further by lots intricate polished stainless trim, and highly polished alloy inner panels, everywhere you look there is more and more detail.
The running gear consists of a very healthy 429 ci Ford V8 7 Litre Big Block , and this impressive unit gets its enormous torque down to the pavement via a recon C6 Ridgeback 3 speed Ford automatic, and on into the Jaguar diff.
The engine has that unmistakable big block note, and the music it makes is transferred from the headers out into the traditional style Side Pipes which snake along the sides of this impressive beast, and leave no doubt this thing means business.
The interior is all handmade, and is still in excellent condition, with a full complement of Jaguar gauges residing in the padded dash, while twin chrome roll bars, and comfortable traditional looking seating round the impressive package out, along with a magnificent set of highly polished chrome Tru-Spoke Wire Wheels, harking back to the days of old.
You couldn't come close to building a replica Cobra to this standard today for anywhere near the price of this example, if fact it would probably be easily twice the amount now, so this Cobra in the condition it is presented in today makes a lot of sense for the money....
A well built well maintained example, and one of the best we have had the pleasure of offering for sale.
Inspection will impress a genuine buyer.
