For Sale: 1965 Shelby Cobra in Charlotte, North Carolina for sale in Charlotte, NC
Vehicle Description From inception, Backdraft cars are turnkey products developed and engineered to mimic the vintage appeal of authentic aluminum Cobras while handily out-performing pretty much anything on the street.
Here we have a custom ordered and well-optioned example, ready to hit the open road.
The assembly of this roadster's professionally finished GT body began with a steel-lined GRP molding that was hand-tweaked and gel coated on a full-size rotisserie rack.
Once that coating was complete, the newly formed fuselage was smoothed by a seasoned fiberglass professional, baked in an even coat of primer and inspected top-to-bottom to ensure first-class quality.
And when quality control was cleared, sublime Race Red two-stage was trimmed with crisp Steel Gray racing stripes.
Tilt this roadster's lightweight hood and you'll find an Iconic 427ci small block that twists a heady 500 horsepower into 532 lb.
/ft.
of tire-killing torque! Behind that mill, a proven Tremec 5-speed spins a limited-slip rear end.
The engine is fed by an upgraded aluminum fuel tank and kept cool by an upgraded aluminum radiator and auxiliary oil cooler.
That drivetrain, bolted to a hot-rolled rectangular steel ladder-type chassis, sends power through the same BMW-sourced MacPherson strut front and fully independent rear suspension that's become a Backdraft hallmark.
Those fully adjustable bones are led by BMW-sourced rack-and-pinion steering.
Stops are provided by four wheel discs.
And there's simply nothing that looks better on a Cobra than a set of sweet Trigo Knock-Offs! Between the doors, diagonal stitched buckets pin soft pleats under 4-point safety harnesses.
An upgraded carbon fiber dash hangs Auto X gauges next to a push button starter.
An angled Cobra shifter pivots next to a blackened hand brake.
And the driver carves curves through a sueded leather Sabelt steering wheel.
