Carroll Shelby’s rise to prominence began when he won the coveted international 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1959 while driving an Aston Martin. It was this exposure to sleek and fast European cars that pushed him to build the AC Cobra in 1962. The car absolutely dominated the then Corvette-dominated racetracks. It went on to win the World Manufacturers’ GT Championship beating the then longtime GT champions, Ferrari. The AC Cobra, more commonly known as the Shelby Cobra, was produced until 1967 with iterations as the Cobra, MKII, and the MKII. Up for the taking is a 1965 Shelby Cobra MKIII replica built by Factory Five Racing. The car features many modern upgrades and just 350 miles on the odometer.
Staying faithful to the original AC Cobra 427 design, the Factory Five Racing team has done an incredible job with this replica 1965 Shelby Cobra MKIII. The Cobra is finished in black with Charcoal racing stripes running the full length. The exterior features an authentic chrome-on-brass windscreen, vintage rear and side view mirrors, vintage-style headlight assembly, red dual tail/brake lights, winged amber turn signals, dual aluminum side louvers, crafted steel side pipes with integral mufflers, and original front and rear quick-jack bumpers with fasteners. It sits on a set of Team III Halibrand replica wheels in silver.The interior features a full black leather appointment with original British-style bucket seats in black with tubular steel frames. Other noticeable aspects include a padded dash cover, aluminum dash, toggles and indicator lights, complete carpet set, all authentic trims and gauges, a 4-point Simpson racing H-harness for the driver and passenger, and a vintage-style Mota Lita steering wheel.
This 1965 Shelby Cobra MKIII replica is not just about the authentic looks, it is host to the custom built Smeding Performance 427 Windsor engine coupled with a Tremec TKO 600 five-speed manual transmission. Power is rated at 505hp which is all sent to the rear wheels. The Cobra uses Ford Racing disc brakes all around, a Ford Racing rack and pinion with custom valves and AN braided lines, a single chrome driver roll bar, and a Power Master gear drive starter.

There are few machines that have changed the automotive landscape and still continue to baffle with their performance and looks, the Shelby Cobra is one of those machines. Built with America's finest and British styling, the legendary '60s motor is the stuff of legend and built to redefine what true unfiltered performance is really like. While iconic, finding a Shelby Cobra is a task, and if you do manage to find one, you best believe that your financials are about to be turned upside down. Present today is your way of enjoying a true automotive icon without breaking the bank and takes shape with this lovely 1965 Shelby AC Cobra replica. Built by the folks over at Backdraft Racing, this close replica is the best way to stand out and feel what an automotive icon truly is like.
The Shelby Cobra is one of those cars that just screams raw personality. It’s a beast in every sense of the word, with this simple yet fawned-over design the template for many replicas, fulfilling the unprecedented demand these cars have conjured. Our featured car is a replica of a 1967 Shelby Cobra. This 2010 AC Cobra replica was built by Shell Valley. And, like most replicas, the approach to personalization is off the charts. This car features a stroked 351ci V8 engine, with the total displacement now standing at 418ci, with an output reported at 500hp. The engine really is the star of this car, with less than 1,000 miles of running reported by the current owner since it was rebuilt. You also get a Tremec 5-speed manual transmission with a shortened 9-inch rear end with a 350.1 ratio. Then there’s an upgraded Ford Racing 4-wheel disc brake system, too, for added stopping power.
The original Shelby Cobra, actually called the AC Cobra, is a British-American collaboration that came together to give the automotive world something truly wondering. AC Cars (Britain) and Carroll Shelby (American) are the two main parties in this enthralling story that would see an American V8 stuffed into a diminutive British roadster, creating something that scared nearly everyone who dared drive it as hard as possible. Less than a thousand original Cobras were made, which means that the replica market is booming. After all, the beauty of a replica is that you can customize it accordingly. Enter this 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica, that’s reportedly a race car style build of a Gen 1 Cobra. And now, this 10,000-mile beast can be yours!

The Porsche 356 was the first ever commercial model that Porsche made, debuting in 1950. Sharing some common components with the Volkswagen Beetle (which Ferdinand Porsche himself had a hand in), the two cars couldn’t be more divergent in purpose and persona. While the Beetle is a friendly, cute, family car, the Porsche 356 is a lightweight, nimble-handing sports car. It was made in coupe and convertible (Speedster) forms. This makes the 356 one of the most sought-after classic cars these days. It’s not unheard of for mint specimens to fetch high six, or even seven-figure prices. Thankfully, there are plenty of excellent replicas around for those who want the 356 driving experience, but aren’t too fussed about purity. We’ve got to say that this 2007 Vintage 356 Speedster Replica up for sale right now is one of the best replicas that we’ve seen. If it speaks your language, don’t delay; call us ASAP.
The Porsche 550 was a mid-engined sports car, available as a coupe and as a spyder, specifically developed and used for racing in the mid-fifties. It won upon debut at the Nurburgring Eifel Race in 1953, a result that would set the tone for the rest of its motorsport career. It was succeeded by the Porsche 718 in 1957, which would also become incredibly successful. 70 years on, they’ve become incredibly sought after, with the most expensive one reportedly selling for over $5 million. But even for those in the tax bracket to invest that kind of money in one of these, there’s one big catch: only 90 were ever made. So, is there an alternative? Well, this replica from Vintage Motorcars of California might be the next best option.
