Description
The Shelby 427 Cobra earned its legendary status through an unmatched blend of striking design, brute-force performance, and visceral driving excitement. This CSX4000-series Shelby 427 Cobra, chassis CSX4128, proudly carries that legacy forward with authentic presence and exceptional specification.
Finished in classic Guardsman Blue with Wimbledon White stripes, the car features period-correct detailing including black quick jacks, white side-exit exhaust pipes, a polished stainless roll hoop, 15-inch Shelby stainless steel knock-off wheels, and a spun aluminum side mirror. The stance and finish perfectly capture the raw, purposeful look that defines the Cobra legend.
Power comes from a formidable 427 FE side-oiler V8, delivering the big-block thrust the Cobra is famous for. The engine bay is immaculately detailed with an aluminum underhood panel dress-up kit and a comprehensive engine presentation package that includes pent-roof valve covers, chrome fuel filter, Canton road-race oil pan, period-correct catch can, and a remote-mounted oil filter and bracket. Power is delivered through a Tremec 5-speed manual transmission, providing modern reliability with classic engagement.
The cockpit is purpose-built for spirited driving. Features include black leather upholstery, four-point Simpson shoulder harnesses for both driver and passenger, and a roll hoop–mounted driver’s harness bracket. Additional highlights include a quick-release wood steering wheel, leather shift boot, and an onboard fire extinguisher with fire suppression system. The dropped floors and extended footbox make this example particularly well suited for taller drivers without compromising driving ergonomics.
CSX4128 presents as a highly refined, driver-focused Shelby 427 Cobra that delivers the visual drama, performance, and authenticity expected from one of the most iconic sports cars ever built.
