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 original Shelby Cobra, actually called the AC Cobra, is a British-American collaboration that came together to give the automotive world something truly wondering. AC Cars (Britain) and Carroll Shelby (American) are the two main parties in this enthralling story that would see an American V8 stuffed into a diminutive British roadster, creating something that scared nearly everyone who dared drive it as hard as possible. Less than a thousand original Cobras were made, which means that the replica market is booming. After all, the beauty of a replica is that you can customize it accordingly. Enter this 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica, that’s reportedly a race car style build of a Gen 1 Cobra. And now, this 10,000-mile beast can be yours!
What do you get when you imbue an Eighties car with Twenties (no not Twenty Twenties, but Nineteen Twenties) styling? That’s precisely what Excalibur aimed to do. This Milwaukee-based outfit was the work of Clifford Brooks Stevens, who initially designed the cars for Studebaker. Stevens subsequently formed a company to create them by himself. Sadly, the project wasn’t as successful as all involved would have expected, and after several failures, Excalibur folded in 1990. Of course, that hasn’t stopped others from creating replicas, such as this 1989 Excalibur Series V Replica. Built on a 1989 Mercury Grand Marquis GS chassis, this 17,688-mile automobile awaits its new owner in Williston, Vermont. It is often said that imitation is the best form of flattery, so the fact that someone built a replica of the Excalibur means that the car is worth checking out. If you’re the kind of person who lusts after the quirky and isn’t afraid to push the boundaries of what many consider a ‘classic’ or ‘modern classic’, why not buy this car and become its custodian?
The Chevy Nova, or Chevy II as it was also known, was the Bowtie’s contender in the compact car space between 1962 and 1979. It was quite a departure from Chevy’s other offerings that included full-size and midsize cars, plus sports, muscle and pony cars. Nevertheless, the Nova was a best-seller throughout much of the Sixties, since it represented affordable motoring for the masses who didn’t want a land yacht of epic proportions and eye-watering price. Now, the Nova is a great classic car, as well as a fine restomod platform. This particular 1966 Chevrolet Nova SS Restomod is a great example of the latter category, as it’s undergone a full restoration and has just 400 miles on its stonking new motor.
Being a manufacturer and making a statement in the ʼ80s was a tough task, as the automotive world was on full blast with cars making the move to more tech and a change in design to suit a massive shift in customer tastes and preferences. Mercedes-Benz in the 80s was peak German automotive and the secret to its success? Staying true to who they are and giving the world true luxury and superior engineering over marketing gimmicks. Present today is this 1988 Mercedes-Benz 420SEL, this German classic is a love letter to luxury cruising in style and has just a reported 140,316 miles on its clock.
