1965 Shelby Cobra Convertible

An original 427 Shelby Cobra is an amazing car. Light, very powerful and very elemental with just two seats, no windows and no A/C. A vintage 427 Cobra is a massive thrill ride. It’s also a million-dollar car. Fortunately, there are Cobra replica companies that provide the timeless design and ripping performance of the legendary original at a fraction of the price. Here we have a 1965 Cobra 427 S/C replica by high-end builder Unique Motorcars. The build was done in May of 2024 and the car has traveled less than 1,000 miles since. This was a no-expense-spared build that must be seen, heard and driven to be believed. Everywhere you look, from the body to the interior to the engine to the underside, this car bespeaks quality. You can't help but notice the stunning Dark Green with White stripes paint scheme, flip-open gas cap, side exhaust and knock-off style Halibrand wheels. To say this car is a head-turner is an understatement. Slide into the cockpit and you’ll note the old school style bucket seats and full instruments. Rather than cheap vinyl upholstery there is genuine leather as well as a real wood dash panel and wood-rimmed steering wheel. Other highlights include the forward-leaning gear shifter and multi-point racing-style seatbelts. Under the scooped hood is an aluminum 427 V8 with fuel-injection and the look of dual quads. Output is a staggering 600 horsepower and all that power runs through a 5-Speed Tremec gearbox and out to a Jaguar independent rear end suspension. Rack and pinion steering and disc brakes round out the impressive specs. The best way to describe this car is to say it’s like driving a very powerful go-kart. Along with its thrilling acceleration and nimble handling is a throaty exhaust that provides the right soundtrack. Providing most (if not all) of the enjoyment of piloting a real 427 Cobra at less than a tenth of the price, this car defines “bang for the buck” like few others.
