Shelby Cobra 427 S/C Completion for Sale in the United Kingdom

This Shelby Cobra 427 S/C Completion is a used car. It is equipped with a manual transmission. The car is finished in Guardsman Blue with a Black interior.

CSX3058 is neither an original 1965 car nor a later continuation: it is one of nine 'Completion' cars Shelby American assembled in the 1990s with a noted Cobra restorer, on chassis numbers unused in 1965. Third of the nine, it runs a 427 side-oiler built in period, has the safety changes of the series and still wears its original colours: Guardsman Blue, white Le Mans stripes and a black cabin.

It was commissioned for a vice chairman of Sony Trading Group and is the car that Gran Turismo 2 reproduced in 1999, the first time a 427 Cobra could be driven in the game. One of the last Cobras Carroll Shelby oversaw himself, it bears his signature and comes with a factory build photo album, invoices and photographs. Driven only in warm, dry weather, it is now offered publicly in Britain for the first time.

The car is located in Ashford, United Kingdom.

Can this Shelby Cobra 427 S/C be inspected before purchase?

The car is at Ashford, United Kingdom, and an inspection is arranged with the selling dealer.

Ask the dealer for the service record, the number of previous owners and any accident history, with supporting documents for the information stated in the listing.
