Description:
In terms of folklore, the Shelby Cobra is essentially the automotive version of Babe Ruth. Gawdy numbers, beyond imagination performance, and a topic that brings smiles to the faces of everyone involved in the conversation. But, if you don't happen to have the two million dollars on hand to throw down for an original Cobra, it's easy to see why we are so grateful that cars like this 1967 Shelby Cobra Factory Five exist. This Mark TTT Roadster was manufactured in 2009 and has come to us with just 12,754 miles on the odometer since then.
The beautiful black paint is highlighted by silver Grand Sport-style hash marks on the front fenders, which complement the Cobra's "Powered By Ford" badges and massive side pipes. Inside, we find the handsomely minimalist interior that Shelby originally intended for his masterpiece. Its five-gauge dashboard is augmented by enough switches to double as an old-school fighter jet cockpit. The level-front shifter is classic Cobra, while the three-spoke, wood-rimmed steering wheel uses a Factor Five center cap to remind you that this car is a bit more modern than the car it's modeled after.
Under the hood, this Cobra uses Ford's other famous engine. The 5.0-liter Windsor small-block V-8 is a two-bolt main from the 1991-1996 era of Mustang engines, featuring electronic fuel injection, so there are no fussy carburetors to deal with. That power is then funneled through a (more) modern Borg and Warner T5 five-speed manual transmission. No mufflers necessary when talking about a Cobra, as the long tube headers link right up to the big side pipes to announce your arrival long before you get there.
