CSX3045 to be sold at RM Auctions Scottsdale 2013
According to its Charlie Thomas Collection catalog, it looks like CSX3045...an original 427 "semi-competition" Cobra...is slated to cross the block at RM Auctions Scottsdale in January 2013.
CSX3045 is the car that Contemporary Classic "splashed" as the basis for its 427 Cobra replica and, by extension, was also the basis for the Superformance replica.
See page 213 of catalog: RM Auctions

And think how much better it would have been if Shelby could have made the deal for engines with GM instead of Ford. Like he wanted to do in the first place. |

Sorry, but that is the way we have to deal with it

Big block cars are usually different than small block cars. I think the big block cars were the way they were to avoid messing up the oil cooler.
I wonder if the quick jacks on the S/C came chromed like that from the factory?  |
