Arguably, the best and worst thing about the Shelby Cobra is that they just didn’t produce enough of them. Original cars, designed by AC of the UK and enhanced by Shelby America, are so sought after today that their pricing is now in the stratosphere. Thankfully, there are some dedicated replica manufacturers out there that will get you as close to the original at a fraction of the cost. In this case, say hello to the 1965 Shelby Cobra Backdraft Racing. Backdraft Racing is renowned for its Cobra reproductions, and this car is a beauty. In addition to its stunning looks, capped off with a Steel Grey exterior, you’ll find some choice elements in play, too. Under the hood lies a 351ci V8 engine that has been breathed upon with parts from Edelbrock and Holley. You get independent coilover suspension and some nice wheels. Plus, an interior to die for. With a reported 3,000 miles on the clock, this Shelby Cobra is exceedingly tempting.
The Shelby Cobra's design is one of the most recognizable American sports cars made to date. This replica 1965 Shelby Cobra by Backdraft Racing captures this timeless shape. It’s painted Steel Grey with white racing stripes over the top. The car sits on 18-inch knock-off-style aluminum wheels. You’ll also notice Quick-Jack bumpers, a polished roll bar, and polished stainless steel side pipes. Inside, you’ll find bucket seats trimmed in red leather. The driver is offered control via a wood and polished aluminum steering wheel, a polished floor shifter, and aluminum pedals. You’ll find a bank of AutoMeter gauges on the dashboard to keep track of engine vital, too.
Under the hood of this 1965 Shelby Cobra Backdraft Racing lies a suitably potent engine: a 351ci V8 engine. The engine is further enhanced with Edelbrock E-Street aluminum cylinder heads and an Edelbrock RPM Air Gap intake manifold. It breathes through a Holley 670 CFM Street Avenger 4-barrel carburetor, and you’ll also find ceramic-coated exhaust headers. Ignition is thanks to an MSD distributor with a Street Fire ignition box. The motor sends power to the rear wheels via a Tremec five-speed manual transmission.
