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!
This wide-fendered 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica wears red paint that will make it instantly noticeable no matter where you park it. Then, you’ve got a hood scoop, fender vents, push-style racing bumpers, and a full roll hoop/bar system for some safety – remember that a Cobra is a permanent open-topped car. The car rides on Halibrand style wheels with knock-off center caps for that quintessential sixties racer look and feel. But, it does have headlamps, taillamps and turn signals, to make it road legal. The two-seat interior of this 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica comes with black leather seats and Simpson racing harnesses in contrasting red. You’ve got very little in the way of comforts. There are door pockets, sun visors, side wind wings, and a padded fiberglass dashboard. The driver gets three pedals, a black gear shift knob and a wood-rimmed steering wheel. The passenger gets a replica Carroll Shelby signature on the dashboard to gaze at, and perhaps, pray to, while the driver is having fun. That’s all there is, and that’s all you need. You don’t even need music, because when the engine gets into its element, it will play a dominating soundtrack via its side-exit exhaust pipes.
This 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica uses a Ford 351ci Windsor V8, paired with a 4-speed manual gearbox and a Ford 9-inch rear end. There’s a new intake, new carburetors, a new clutch, ribbed valve covers, a Cobra air grabber, and MSD ignition. Dual electric fans ensure that the engine temperature is maintained even under racing conditions. Meanwhile, the four-wheel disc brakes and front coilovers plus rear trailing arms with shock absorbers ensure that handling and stopping power are suitably matched to the brawny V8.

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.
