For Sale: 1965 Shelby Cobra 427 CSX4000 40th Anniversary Edition (polished aluminum body, 1800 miles)
This Shelby Cobra is a CSX4000 continuation model that is one of 40 examples built to commemorate the 40th anniversary of Shelby American, Inc. The car was completed on July 5, 2005 at Shelby American in Las Vegas, Nevada and features a polished aluminum body with brushed racing stripes. Power comes from an all-aluminum Shelby 427 FE stroker V8 equipped with dual Holley four-barrel carburetors and backed by a Toploader four-speed manual transmission. Other details include side pipes, a chrome roll hoop, a glovebox door signed by Carroll Shelby, and more. The seller acquired the car in 2019 from the widow of its original owner, and has since replaced the battery and performed a fluid service. This 40th Anniversary CSX4000 shows 1,800 miles and is offered by the seller on behalf of his co-owner in Virginia with a Statement of Origin, build photos, a display plaque and chairs, period literature, and a clean Alaska title listing it as a 1965 Shelby in the owner’s name.
