1965 SHELBY DAYTONA RE-CREATION

Details

A one-owner car, this 1965 Shelby Daytona re-creation was purchased from well-known Factory Five Racing in Massachusetts by a gentleman from Rhode Island. He designed and facilitated the entire build. The bodylines are gorgeous and the British Racing Green paint is show-quality. Unlike many other Shelby Daytonas, this car doesn't have racing stripes or any decals which looks very rich. Some exterior features include front windshield wipers, plastic side windows and rear window, Cobra mirror,

Cobra gas cap and new 17' Shelby GT40 wheels with new Sumitomo HTR 352 tires. The beautiful custom tan interior complements the exterior perfectly. Some interior features include a roll cage, leather-wrapped dash and seats, Simpson seatbelts, Auto Meter gauges, Cobra wood steering wheel, door-pull handles, B&M Quick Silver shifter and custom switches. The engine compartment is nicely detailed. It has an aluminum firewall and Painless wiring. The engine is a built 351ci Windsor V8. Engine performance upgrades include a Crane camshaft and aluminum rockers, Edelbrock aluminum heads, Weiand intake, Holley high-performance fuel pump, Cobra valve covers, Edelbrock water pump and MSD ignition. This engine runs and sounds great out the custom headers with side pipes. Cooled by a Griffin aluminum radiator with electric fan, the engine is coupled to a Ford C6 automatic transmission and Thunderbird rear end. The undercarriage is nicely detailed and features a custom tubular Factory Five Racing frame. It also has rack & pinion steering, 4-wheel disc brakes, aluminum fuel tank and rear-mounted battery. The front suspension has been upgraded with tubular control arms and coilovers. The rear suspension has been upgraded with independent suspension and coilovers. This car has recently been completely serviced and detailed which is fully documented by an invoice. From the MS Classic Cars Collection. **TITLED AS A 1965 COBRA 65**
