The automotive world lost one of its biggest legends in 2012, and to make sure he is forever remembered, Ford brought over Carroll Shelby’s most iconic work to the SEMA Show in Las Vegas.
Though this isn’t the first Cobra model, the distinctive bonnet and flares of the 427 S/C is the model most people think of when you say “Shelby Cobra”. Unveiled in 1966, the car featured the 427-H motor, a 351 aluminum small block with hemispherical header.
Designed for both street and competition use (S/C) the car came with newly developed independent suspension and fortified frame that could handle the most powerful engine in a roadster of the time.
The iconic car reentered production in 1997 under the name CSX 400 series and later the CSX 6000, still available with either fiber glass or aluminum bodies.
