Two Original Cobras and a Shelby for sale
CSX 3288, an original 428 engined "427" Cobra, unrestored street car, original George Barris Pearl White paint, black interior is almost perfect. Comes with hard and soft tops, both sets of windows, tonneau, jack, Blue Dot spare tire, 5 original Sunburst wheeels. See Hemmings.com for more details. Search under "AC".
CSX 2149 original 289 car, just finishing a 3 1/2 year refurbishment, rather than a restoration. We reused every original part we possibly could, and did not replace any panels or the foot boxes. This looks like a 40 year old Cobra, but a VERY NICE one. The paint is the original Wimbledon White color and is incredible. Red interior. Original 5-bolt hipo engine.
Owned by the inventor of Prozac, Dr. Brian Molloy, until it was found in his shed by a repairman. It spent time in a Gatlinburg TN car museum on loan, until, reportedly, the IRs started removing cars for some reason. The owner reclaimed his car quickly. It was used in a series of shows on the DIY network on Cobra Replica building, as an example of an original Cobra. A complete set of the tapes comes with the car.
The car will be sold at the RM Auction, Aug.19-20 in Monterey CA.
1968 Shelby 500KR #2466. One of only 11 that were red, 4-speed, tilt, tint, and A/C.
We bought it from the second owner, who had the car since ~1972. The car needed some minor cosmetic work when we bought it, but we gave it a serious mechanical going over to give the new owner a fabulous car. Another really wonderfully original car! This car will also be at the RM Auction in Monterey, Aug. 19-20,2005.
