1966 Shelby Cobra 427 Roadster

Every Shelby 427 Cobra is rare simply by nature, but everyone including Carroll Shelby himself knows that, within that context, some reach the level of “exceptional”, a fact he acknowledged when he signed the glovebox door of CSX 3301 with the inscription,

One of the rarest

The first car in the third production group of 427 Cobras, this sparkling White roadster was completed at AC Cars for delivery directly to Ford Advanced Vehicles in Slough, England. Shelby 427 Cobra CSX3301 is being offered at the Mecum Kissimmee Auction Friday, January 28, 2011.

  1. The advantage of the Shelby Cobra is that it wedded big American muscle into a small Uk roadster within a package easier and less costly than the European competition. But a split century later on, prime good examples are attractive big bucks. The odyssey from the Shelby Naja is described by the efforts of many persons, marked by many people important vehicles, and by more importantly moments. They will weave a rich cloth of creativeness, determination, and persistence when confronted with limited assets and legendary challenges.
