Want a Shelby Cobra in your life but can’t stretch to the six-figure sums that originals tend to change hands for? No worries, consider a replica like this sub 33,000-mile 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica Backdraft Roadster. With its catchy blue and white striped paint job, punchy 347ci V8 under the hood and overall sense of raciness, this car currently resides in Murphy, North Carolina. And let us tell you, it’s true to Carroll Shelby’s vision of the original Cobras to a great degree.

A plate on the car reveals that the car was built in South Africa by Tr-Tec Pty Ltd.
The original AC Cobra, or Shelby Cobra as it’s popularly known, is a relatively rare bird in the automotive scene. Under 1,000 examples were made between 1962 and 1967, making it rarer than many modern supercars and hypercars! The Cobra was the result of an unholy union between a compact British Roadster and a brutish American V8, and the only man who dared to try such an union was the legendary Carroll Shelby. Naturally, the Cobra soon separated the boys from the men, so to speak. Taming a Cobra was one of those things that marked you out as a real racing driver. Naturally, with such low production, original Cobras are scarce on the market, and when they do pop up, move for high six, or even seven figure sums! No worries, though, because if you don’t mind a replica, outfits such as Factory Five are ready to assist. One of their creations is up for sale today, a 1967 Shelby Cobra Replica from Germantown, Maryland. This Cobra is a replica of a Mark 4 Roadster example, and packs a 351ci Windsor under the hood. So if you want something thrilling to drive every now and then, this is the definitive car for those all-analog, raw, visceral driving thrills that no modern machine can even come close to delivering.
