1965 Shelby AC Cobra Description:

Selling my 1965 Shelby AC Cobra 427 replica by Factory Five. Professionally built by Whitney Motorcars in 2006 this car is in excellent condition. A few rock chip as shown in the pictures as the car was driven. I have over $55,000.00 in this car!!The car was originally built with a 302 small block and later I upgraded and had a 427 Windsor based "Stroker" professionally built for the car along with a Tremec TKO 600 Five speed transmission with heavy duty clutch and bell housing scatter shield.The engine has a forged bottom end with RHS aluminum heads and a Comp 292 cam.Car is incredibly strong and sounds amazing with the cam and sidepipes!! NOT for the faint of heart!!!I have not dyno'd the car but the builder said he had built the same engine for others and they dyno'd over 450 HP and 500 Ft.Lbs. of torque.The only problem with this car is wheel spin with the high horsepower, torque and light weight, but it is a thrill to drive. If you like attention this is your car. Cannot take it anywhere without long looks, horn honks and thumbs up! A constant conversation piece at shows or just anywhere.With 5th gear as overdrive the car cruises down the highway at low RPM.I don't remember what rear gear it is but I think it is a 3:08. It is positraction.The interior is tastefully done with saddle leather on the seats and dash. Simpson harnesses and roll bar keep you safe.The speedometer has never been hooked up but I estimate the car to have about 3,000 miles overall with only about 1,500 on the current 427. All other gauges work as should.It still has the original rear tires on it if that says anything about the low miles and they still have some decent life in them.The front tires I just replaced as they were wearing a little more on the inside than the outside due to needing a slight camber adjustment. I have not done this yet so the buyer will want to do this eventually. Also missing center dust caps on front wheels. Like I said aside from these things and a few rock ships the car is in tip-top excellent condition ready to cruise or show. Buyer responsible for shipping cost or local pick up.
