Showing just 608 miles, this example is exceptionally fresh and extensively equipped with premium performance hardware centered around a custom-built Smeding Performance 7.0L 427 Windsor V8. Finished in black with subtle dual charcoal ghost stripes, this Cobra replica delivers the aggressive appearance, thunderous performance, and analog driving experience that enthusiasts crave, all while benefiting from meticulous craftsmanship and carefully selected upgrades throughout.
Exterior and Interior
The exterior of this 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica is finished in black with dual charcoal ghost stripes, giving the car an understated but menacing appearance that perfectly suits its muscular proportions. The body was reportedly prepared and finished by Whitby Motorcars, a respected name among Cobra replica enthusiasts, while the current owner reports that the Factory Five frame, body, and internal panels remain in place. Additional craftsmanship details include chem-filmed and silver anodized sheet metal panels, hidden trunk hinges, rolled cockpit edges, and polished aluminum trim rings for the roll bar and harnesses. Team III Halibrand-style wheels wrapped in Goodyear Eagle GT II tires complete the vintage racing aesthetic, while details such as the single chrome roll bar, Le Mans-style fuel cap, power windshield wipers, vintage mirrors, and ceramic-coated side pipes give the car an unmistakably authentic Cobra-inspired presence. The interior of this 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica blends vintage race car simplicity with high-quality craftsmanship and purposeful upgrades. Black leather upholstery covers the adjustable vintage-style seats, while a leather-wrapped dashboard and fully carpeted cockpit elevate the cabin beyond the stripped-down nature of many Cobra builds. A Mota-Lita steering wheel sits ahead of Auto Meter replica gauges displaying mechanical oil pressure, oil temperature, and water temperature readings, reinforcing the car’s driver-focused layout. Four-way Simpson harnesses mounted directly to the frame add to the competition-inspired environment, while thoughtful details such as leather rear fender guards, a replica reverse-lockout shifter, Halon fire extinguishers, and a master battery cut-off switch demonstrate the seriousness of the build. Even the trunk has been fully carpeted, further showcasing the level of finish throughout this Cobra replica.
