... my dream car 1967 Shelby Cobra GT350 Mustang
Ford asked Carol Shelby to build a high performance race car based on the production Mustang fastback in 1965, the result was this stunning 1967 Shelby Cobra GT350 Mustang. Early versions of Shelby's have the two "Guardsman Blue" racing strips that run the length of the car. And check out the beautiful interior:

Me like, me like a lot! Although one in British Racing green with silver or white stripes would do perhaps even better. :) | ||
Why wait for the lottery. Haggerty has term loans for collectible cars with terms for up to 12 years. | ||
Wooo - finance on a classic car - I could find myself going down a slippery slope with this one :-) | ||
LoL Jason, we can dream... How many lotteries would I have to win to have this, my all time favorite... Super Snake 427 Cobra
This is one of only two that were built - some info... “When I built this dual supercharged 427 Cobra in 1966, I wanted it to be the fastest, meanest car on the road,” said Shelby. “Forty years later, it will still kick the tail of just about anything in the world. It’s the fastest street legal Cobra I’ve ever owned.” Shelby plucked CSX3015 from a line of 19 production Competition Cobras and molded it into one of the most impressive automobiles ever built. It has a monstrous 427cid, 800hp twin Paxton supercharged V8 with a super three-speed automatic transmission. In addition to use as his personal automobile, Shelby drove the Cobra in a running of the “Turismos Visitadores” in Nevada. In February 1968, Road & Track referred to CSX3015 as “The Cobra to End All Cobras.” 0-60mph time of 3 seconds. It sold for $5 million!!! Highest ever paid for an American car. Hope you realize your dream someday - awesome car (white with blue sripes of course!!!) : ) Dan | ||
Hi Dan, thanks for that - truely awsome car although it does not get to be my all time fav for a few reasons: I'd probably kill myself in it.... ....thinking about it... it may be worth it though :-) | ||
Lol, me too. But what a way to go! hehe |
