Description
This replica of a Shelby Cobra is powered by a 351ci Windsor V8 paired with a BorgWarner T5 five-speed manual transmission and is finished in black with silver center stripes over black upholstery. Equipment includes 15â?³ Compomotive wheels, disc brakes, rack-and-pinion steering, polished bumperettes, a single roll hoop, side-exit exhaust pipes, AC-branded pedals, a wood-rimmed steering wheel, a Holley carburetor, and MSD ignition. The fiberglass body is fitted over a square tube chassis and is finished in black with silver center stripes. Exterior details include polished bumperettes, a hood scoop, fender vents, a Talbot Berlin-style mirror, wind wings, a single roll hoop, a Le Mans-style fuel filler, Cobra and 427 badging, and side-exit exhaust pipes. Compomotive Halibrand-style 15â?³ wheels wear faux knock-off spinners and are mounted with BFGoodrich Radial T/A white letter tires measuring 245/60 up front and 295/50 out back. The car is equipped with rack-and-pinion steering and four-wheel disc brakes. The cockpit houses bolstered bucket seats with headrests and Simpson racing harnesses as well as a dashboard-mounted rearview mirror, tinted sunvisors, a glove compartment, AC-branded pedals, a fire extinguisher, and an Alpine CD stereo with satellite radio compatibility. The wood-rimmed steering wheel wears a Cobra-branded horn button and fronts a black upholstered dashboard that houses a 140-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and auxiliary gauges. The front-hinged hood opens to reveal a 351ci Windsor V8 that is equipped with a Holley carburetor, MSD ignition, and heat-wrapped tubular exhaust headers as well as an external oil cooler and an aluminum radiator with an electric fan. An oil change was performed in preparation for the sale.
