NOT A REPLICA! "What is a Shelby Cobra?" someone might ask. We wouldn't be surprised if under the definition of a Shelby car, you were shown a picture of this specific vintage Shelby. On rare occasions, we have an opportunity to uncover a significant piece of automotive history. This is one of those occasions! You're looking at none other than an early model CSX2000 Shelby Cobra street car. This 1962 Shelby is well documented in the Shelby registry and the owner is more than happy to share the VIN with qualified buyers. Only 62 of these Cobra Shelby vintage cars were built, and this is one of the first. This Shelby Cobra was manufactured in 1962 and was professionally restored in 1997 by the current owner. The original equipment 260 C I Windsor block V-8 was replaced by a solid lifter 289 C I., as were most "slab side" Cobras. The correct Weber carbs and manifold have been fitted, but the original 4 bbl carb and manifold will go with the sale. The original aluminum case T10 Borg Warner transmission and correct Salisbury type rear axle, with outboard brakes, are still on the car as well as the Girling calipers and Lucas electrical components. The factory roll bar, under car exhaust, and chrome hoop front bumper are also original. This car was built shortly after Carroll Shelby introduced the Cobra and is identical to the original CSX2001, except for it's color It has been well cared for, and currently sits in the air-conditioned living room of the owner's home. It is driven sparingly and only on sunny days. This rare Shelby is no trailer queen, and begs to be driven. For Shelby Cobra enthusiasts it would be difficult to nearly impossible, to find a better Shelby Crobra than this authentic Shelby Cobra.!
