The iconic AC/Shelby Cobra is one of the most sought-after British-American sports cars in the world. The result of a collaboration between Carroll Shelby and British firm AC Cars, the Cobra saw less than 1,000 examples built in total. Today, genuine AC Cars/Shelby Cobras fetch millions of dollars, which is why you’ll be grateful to know that there are plenty of replicas. Massachusetts-based Factory Five Racing is one such firm which has made some Cobra replicas, such as this 1965 Ford Cobra by Factory Five Racing that’s now for sale. Bearing just 32,735 miles on the clock, here’s your chance to own as close to an original Cobra as possible – right down to the Ford V8 that makes it go!
Wearing a silver suit with black over-the-top stripes, this 1965 Ford Cobra by Factory Five Racing is as close to the original as possible. It rolls on 17-inch vintage pin drive wheels, and features a full powder-coated frame for longevity. Then, you’ll notice the Anniversary Edition Cobra brake calipers behind the wheels. Low-slung and featuring all lighting to make it road legal, this is a car you could drive to work and back if you dare. But be warned, it’s an open-topped roadster with a tiny windshield and nothing else to protect you from the elements. After all, the original Cobra wasn’t meant to be a cossetting luxury car either. The interior of this car further cements the fact that this 1965 Ford Cobra by Factory Five Racing is a serious racing machine that’s been tamed for the road – just about. You’ve got racing harnesses for the two Cobra Classic leather-upholstered seats, a Moto Lita leather-wrapped steering wheel, and a bevy of gauges. There’s a single bottle holder on the dashboard, but that’s about it for creature comforts. As for cargo, the trunk is taken up by the radiator, so you’d better not put anything heavy or sensitive there.
This 1965 Ford Cobra by Factory Five Racing is powered by a custom-built 351ci V8, paired with a Tremec 5-speed manual gearbox and rear-wheel drive. The car comes with a Ron Davis aluminum exterior, an FMS King Cobra clutch, ventilated disc brakes, and more.
The AC Cobra, also known as the Shelby Cobra is one of those madcap machines that only a person like Carroll Shelby could conceive of. Shelby wondered what would happen if he took a diminutive British roadster like an AC Ace, and stuffed an American V8 into its engine compartment. Surprisingly AC Cars was game, and the Cobra was the result. Produced between 1962 and 1967, less than 1,000 were made – naturally, it was a fearsome beast to drive, and really challenged you to respect it. Today, finding an original Cobra is hard, not to mention very expensive. Cars change hands for six or even seven-figure numbers! Thankfully, there are some fine replicas available at much less outlay. In fact, we’ve got one here right now – check out this 1966 Shelby Cobra Replica from Troy, Michigan! It's got a massive V8 under the hood, all those Cobra styling cues and touches, and is even comes with an automatic transmission to make it easier to drive – something that the original never offered. If you’re interested in netting this snake, call or DM us right now.

The Shelby Cobra is a rare example of a car that’s highly desirable on both sides of the Atlantic. It’s the result of the prolific Carroll Shelby deciding to take a compact British roadster from AC Cars and stuff an American V8 into its engine bay. The result is a fantastically fearsome beast that’s a true driver’s car, and a race track demon. All in all, less than a thousand official Cobras were made between 1962 and 1967. Of course, at the time, scant thought was paid towards preservation of the model for future generations. This means that high six figure price tags are normal for average-condition cars, with mint examples commanding seven figures. However, plenty of replicas do exist for those who want to get their Cobra fix at a far more reasonable price. Today’s 2016 Shelby Cobra Replica is a prime example, and it’s up for sale in California with just 3,196 miles on the clock.
