1966 Shelby 427 Cobra Roadster

14,671 miles. Full and fresh no-expense-spared concours restoration. Only two private owners from 1966-2023. Original dual quad 427 CI V-8 engine. Original Toploader 4-speed manual transmission. Original rear end. One of very few 427 Cobras to have never been modified during its life. Original, never modified or damaged aluminum body. Original, never modified or damaged chassis. One of 155 true 427-powered Street Cobras.
In 1966, Shelby took the new Mark III chassis and added a 510-horsepower 427 V8 engine. He built 260 to be sold on the streetcar market, 31 S/C models, and 19 competition cars. CSX3015--the one built for Shelby's personal use, sold for $5.5m in 2021. This pristine example crosses the block at Mecum.
