Shelby Cobra: Shelby American Original Color Archives Book


My registry is in Abu Dhabi some where so here goes a memory test I might get 427 & 289 mixed up though. Hey could have been a contest giveaway too.

289 colors

Guardsman and Princess Blue Green
White
Black
Vineyard Green
Red
Silver
Maroon
Bright blue/maybe metallic blue not sure
Sveciaa Red I think


Does Primer count as a color?

427 colors

Maroon
Ivy Green
Rangoon Red
Guardsman Blue
White
Charcoal
Black
Silver
Maroon

What about Viking Blue?


I know AC cars had ruby red and canary yellow were these ever used on Cobras? I guess I'm going to have to get another registry.

There was also an iris color which was a darker red, not sure of the full color but a few Cobras were made in this color.


Carry on...


Real 1 I've always liked a black car. How old are the underside pics? Is that what people are doing taking under pics now? I know at auctions there's the under car cameras now.

How do those colors square with the Registry? I'll have to check.

The underside pics of my car were taken this summer. Thought it would be an interesting photo.
