Other correct features included on this awesome example are: Halibrand Pin Drive alloy knock off wheels shod with Goodyear Eagle, period correct tires, alloy radiator and fuel tank with competition large diameter flip up aluminum fill cap. Instrumentation is by a full complement of Smiths' era correct gauges, including the backwards speedo.
The alloy coachwork has never been painted and has always been bare aluminum. This Cobra is titled, registered and insured as a 1965 SHELBY COBRA.
