Carroll Shelby is an American automotive legend. He started in chicken farming, moved to racing cars, and ended up building racing, as well as racing-inspired machines for the road. One of his projects was when he went to British outfit AC Cars in 1961 and asked them if they would build him a car that could accept a V8. AC Cars agreed, as long as Shelby could source the engine. Chevrolet turned him down, but Ford was willing. Hence, the birth of the AC Cobra, also known as the Shelby Cobra in the US of A.

Original or not, does it really matter? This 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica, built by Superformance as a 2002 model replicates the same thrill and joy you get from the legendary 1965 Shelby Cobra. Developed by Carroll Shelby, a racing driver, who was surprised by the speed of the AC Ace during the Le Mans race in 1959. He retired from racing after a few years, wanting to build a race car of his own, and this is what he had in mind. A Ford Windsor 221 engine was mounted into an AC Ace chassis shipped from England, and within just eight hours, the legendary Cobra was brought to life. A.k.a ‘The Turd’ as nicknamed by Ken Miles, the Shelby Cobras have been brilliant machines that everyone must at least experience once in their life. This particular model we have today has undergone an engine rebuild on the 427ci V8 engine, clocking less than 5,000 miles as reported by the current owner.
The story of the AC Cobra is an interesting one. AC Cars was a British automaker who produced two-seat sports cars and roadsters. Their offerings caught the eye of legendary American racer Carroll Shelby who wrote to the company in 1961 asking if they could build him a car, but with a V8. AC agreed on the stipulation that Shelby would find them a suitable engine. Chevrolet wasn’t interested, but Ford decided to help out, and the AC Cobra was born. It was sold as the Shelby Cobra in the United States. Here’s a nice contemporary 1965 Shelby AC Cobra SC 427 that’s been built by Contemporary Classic Motor Car. Crafted after chassis number CSX3045, this enthusiast-owned car has been in the same family for thirty years. Coming from Georgia, it’s got just 3,800 miles on it and has reportedly been garaged. The seller says, "This car has everything I think an AC Cobra should have, down to the gauges and wool carpeting".
