True Shelby Cobra lovers know what a special car they have. I was soon to turn 16 in high school when a friend shared a car mag. On the cover was a 1965 427 Shelby Cobra sitting along side of a 427 Corvette. (Does anyone remember the issue?)Working summer jobs and nights after school, I asked my dad to borrow me about $2,000. to buy the car and I would pay back the differance. He quickly advised me, this car was more expensive then his buick and would make a very poor investment. When I turned 17, I followed a original grey 427 Shelby Cobra and the true love affair started. Four years ago, I was driving a new Z-06 and found the car that looked like the one I saw back then. The Corvette was a great car, but the Shelby Cobra will never become old in my mind. My son has already spoken for it one day.
