1965 Shelby Cobra

Jealousy is often called the green-eyed monster and can be precipitated by all sorts of things. One of these can be someone seeing someone else driving the car of their dreams right past them on the highway. It is no coincidence that this 1965 Shelby Cobra Factory Five Mark IV is a replica of one of the most lusted-after muscle cars in history, painted in a bright green with an offset full-length grey stripe to remove what little amount of subtlety this car may have had left. With just 502 miles on it since its build, this Cobra has barely been broken in. Inside, the form-follows-function interior gets a little more pizazz than Shelbys original car thanks to comfortable bucket seats and a center console with exterior-matched green diamond stitching to complement a set of Simpson four-point harnesses. A trick set of white-faced AutoMeter gauges, Wilwood drilled foot pedals, and a wood-rimmed three-spoke steering wheel featuring a Factory Five centercap. Under the front-hinged hood, we find a beautiful, high-tech-looking 5.0-liter DOHC Coyote V-8 engine. Power from that modern five-oh gets sent through a Tremec TKO600 five-speed manual transmission before heading out to a 3.31:1 geared 8.8-inch Posi rear. Spent gasses are sent through a set of shorty headers and then out through those magnificent side pipes that sound as good as they look.
