Vehicle Detail

Factory Five AC Cobra This 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica will bring you back in time with its classic look. The Factory Five kit is one of the Elite Cobra kits on the market. The engine is a 340hp 5.0 V8 Ford Fuel Injected Cobra Motor with dual electric cooling fans and a 5-speed manual transmission. The exterior is an electric blue with white racing stripes. The interior is neatly trimmed with black vinyl bucket racing seats and 5-point Simpson harnesses. 17x11 / 17x8 Compomotive Wheels (Hallibrand Knockoff Replica Wheels) w/315x35x17 & 245x40x17 Yokohama's with the best suspension you can get, full coilovers.

It is both lightweight (321 lbs) and strong. We use high quality precision cut plate steel with 1010 and 1020 DOM tubing. The Mk4 frame stands head and shoulders above the original 1965 legend thanks to better tools, better materials, and modern technology. * Subframe * A traditional kit car may use a fiberglass tub and body bolted to a cheap platform frame, but you won’t find modern streetcars or racecars built that way. Even vintage 1960s cars like the original ACs, Ferraris and GT-40s used proven racecar construction methods of tubular frames and riveted/bonded aluminum panels.The strong foundation of our world-class frame combined with our aluminum chassis panels bonded and riveted to perimeter frame tubing represents just one of the major design and functional differences between the Mk4 and almost every other replica sold today. * Composite Body * The composite body is a one-piece hand-laid vinylester part that is a precise replica of the original, and engineered to complement the strong steel and aluminum chassis which provides structural support. * Suspension * The ugly truth is that most kits, hot rods and customs handle terribly. Computer simulations and hundreds of hours on the track under the most extreme conditions have helped our engineers design a world-class suspension that simply works great. * Interior * The connection between man, machine, and road is experienced behind the wheel, so we’ve strived to capture the essence of the vintage car interior while improving on cockpit space, ergonomics, sound/heat control and safety features. Inside you’ll find the largest cockpit possible for the car’s authentic exterior dimensions. The Mk4 has good legroom and excellent front/rear visibility.
