The Shelby Cobra is the lovechild of a British and American marriage. It’s what happened when AC Cars UK and Carroll Shelby joined hands, to create a monstrous machine that would see a Ford V8 packed into a British roadster. While original Cobras are hard to come by (and typically cost in the seven-figure range), there are plenty of excellent replicas. One renowned firm is Factory Five, and this 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica Built By Factory Five is one of their fine specimens. The car has just 1,000 miles on the odometer, and is built to be as close to the original as possible.
Exterior and Interior
A design as jaw-dropping as this 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica Built By Factory Five needs a bright yellow paint job to turn heads within a half-mile radius. That’s surely what this car will do, as you rumble by in it, with its contrasting black stripes, alloy wheels, vents, and iconic side-exit exhaust. It’s a car that everyone will know by sight. The two-seat interior of this 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica Built By Factory Five features authentic metal-framed roadster seats in black, with shoulder harnesses to keep driver and passenger in place as the monster V8 does its thing. You’ve got a three-spoke steering wheel, three pedals, a manual gear shifter, and plenty of dials and gauges. Forget creature comforts, as the center console hosts a fire extinguisher rather than anything else. As for luggage space, dream on. This car isn’t for road-tripping, anyways.
Engine
What this car is for, is shredding rubber, screaming its way across race tracks, and decimating drag strips. That’s why the 302ci V8 that powers this 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica Built By Factory Five features fuel injection and a 4 into 1 side exhaust, for maximum power, performance, and noise. Meanwhile, disc brakes provide excellent stopping prowess, which you’ll need, as these machines can easily do nought to sixty in under six seconds, even with a relatively untrained driver at the wheel. Just be careful that you don’t spin out, since those rear tires can be overwhelmed if you’re too lead-footed.
This 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica by Backdraft Racing delivers the kind of raw, analog experience that made the original Cobra such an icon, while adding the more modern chassis engineering Backdraft is known for. Showing just 3,314 miles, this example is powered by a 427ci Ford Racing V8 paired with a 5-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel drive. Finished in Gray Metallic with racing stripes over a black leather interior, it brings together classic Cobra proportions, a big-block-style powertrain, side-exit exhaust, knock-off-style wheels, and an unmistakably purposeful cockpit.
This 2010 Factory Five Shelby Cobra MkIV Replica Roadster is one of just 15 special 15th Anniversary Editions produced, giving it a much more exclusive identity than a typical Factory Five build.

Highlights include a Ford Motorsport Boss 302ci crate V8, Holley HP multi-point electronic fuel injection, a 5-speed manual transmission, custom Moser 8.8-inch rear end, Koni double-adjustable coilovers, and engraved 15th Anniversary Halibrand-style knock-off wheels. Special badging, exclusive gauges, anniversary floor mats, and extensive polished and engine-turned detailing further distinguish this limited-production roadster.
This 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica by Factory Five Racing brings the classic Cobra formula together with a performance-focused modern build.

The result is a lightweight, open-top roadster with the raw V8 character and unmistakable proportions enthusiasts expect from a Cobra-style build.
