Vehicle Detail
Here's your chance to own one of the rarest Cobras in the wild! This was the last AC Cobra you could ever buy from Ford, complete with factory warranty and DOT/EPA certified in all 50 States. This amazing car is NOT A KIT CAR, It is a hand built, nothing like it on the road, custom Cobra. Each one took almost 500 man-hours of labor to meticulously build. And this Cobra is not one of the original "flexible flyer" AC's - This car is custom assembled on a modern tubular space-frame racing chassis with 4 wheel independent suspension. The result looks identical to the original Shelby AC since it's body was modeled off of an original Cobra. The car is the last AC Cobra to ever pass a DOT inspection and the first to pass EPA regulations in all 50 states (as of the year produced). The outer shell is fiberglass, it is reinforced by aluminum at critical and stress points but more importantly the body is directly bonded to the full roll cage frame in a number of points so the fiberglass body, besides being thick hand-laid fiberglass, is reinforced directly by the frame. This keeps the shell rigid and prevents stress cracking while preventing rattles. The car is extremely solidly built. The resulting car is the "Super Cobra" that outperforms the original on the track. The acceleration on this car is nothing short of "take your breath away" fast and with the modern chassis it handles like a slot car. Less than 180 of these cars were ever built before the threat of a lawsuit shut the doors forever. This fine automobile is one of the rarest "Official Ford" AC Cobras ever produced and without any doubt the finest one ever made - with Connolly Leather interior, racing chassis and ultra durable body. There has never been, and likely will never be again, a Cobra made to this hand-built, exacting standard.
