LMC is very proud to offer for sale this 1965 Shelby Cobra CSX4000

The CSX4000 series Cobras are produced with Shelby American and are certainly the closest to an original CSX3000 series you will find. Styled after the infamous 427 S/C Cobras, these continuation cars are equipped with side pipes and S/C roll bar. The cars use original style chassis which have been strengthened while also taking advantage of some modern upgrades which enhance the cars safety and performance such as Baer Brakes all around.

This eye catching 427 S/C Cobra is a CSX4000 series car finished in Silver with LeMans Blue stripes. Equipped with 15x7.5” front and 15x9.5” rear wheels shod with Goodyear tires, this car has got a perfect look with all the right proportions giving it a feel of authenticity. It is outfitted with a black interior which includes leather seats, open top side door pockets, and authentic Shelby gauges. Open the hood and you will find an all-aluminum Ford 427 engine backed by a Toploader 4 speed transmission. To bring this Shelby’s performance up to modern standards, a Weber style fuel injection system was added. At quick glance, it resembles a vintage weber system that was used on many competition race cars of the era. The addition of modern fuel injection allows for easier startups, better drivability, and increased performance. Additional engine upgrades include MSD Pro-Billet distributor, coil, and 6AL ignition, and aluminum radiator.  As soon as you fire it up, the car instantly makes all the right noises to bring you right back to 1965. The side-mount exhaust barks with an almost intoxicating sound, one of the great aspects of driving a 427 Cobra to be enjoyed and has made them so famous.

Since the build was completed this Cobra has seen only 1,127 miles of light use while being meticulously maintained by an avid collector. With the tag right on the dash from Shelby American proudly displaying its CSX number and original Shelby certificate, this CSX4000 series 427 S/C car is an incredible chance for someone searching for an authentic Shelby Cobra that can be used and enjoyed.
