1962 Shelby CSX 8000

Vehicle Description 1962 Shelby CSX 8000 $361,795 In 1962 Carroll Shelby, one of America's greatest race car drivers began a new chapter in his storied career with the legendary Cobra sports car. A piece of this sports car's "DNA" is part of every subsequent Shelby vehicle. Carroll Shelby built his first Cobra, using the new small block Ford engine, in a rented shop, along with some help from some talented California hot rodders. An instant global sensation, it was featured on the cover of magazines with glowing reviews. The lightweight, reliable and powerful roadster was pure American. Today's CSX8000 Series Cobra is modeled after that first car using the same original suspension and body lines, but with superior fit and finish from those built in the early 1960's. With a few modern upgrades in materials and design for safety and performance improvements, the small block street Cobra is as thrilling to drive as the first cars built more than 50 years ago. CSX8045 is a beautiful example of what an aluminum Cobra can be. A Shelby CSX8000 ordered in aluminum body with a polished finish - beautiful lines with a stunning concourse ready finish. CSX80455 is a brand new rolling chassis ready for engine and transmission completed with Stainless Exhaust, Fresh Air Vents, Glove Box, Grab Handle, and Leather Interior. Sold brand new on Shelby MCO for $361,795.
