1966 Shelby Shelby

Overview 1966 Shelby Shelby Over sixty years ago, the best sports cars all came from Europe. Americans wanted a car of their own to take on the British, Italians and Germans. Texan Carroll Shelby took the sharp handling, lightweight AC Ace from Britain, and stuffed it full of American muscle. The result was the Shelby Cobra. The price of an original Shelby Cobra puts it out of the reach of the average enthusiast. Also, most kits leave much to be desired in regards to fit, finish, feel, and value. Then Shelby took his 427 S/C Cobra and took it to another level with the Super Snake. The original cars were created to be the baddest cars made adding twin Paxton Superchargers to the 427FE. Only 23 Super Snakes were factory built in 1965.The Superformance MKIII is a meticulously engineered and crafted reproduction of the original Cobra, built under license from Carroll Shelby Licensing Inc. No expense is spared and no corners are cut in recreating these legendary cars, ensuring an authentic sports car experience. Superformance uses only the highest quality new parts in the construction of the MKIII, they have always maintained amazingly high resale values, and are known in the industry for their track ready drivability, and their show ready finish. It only makes sense that Superformance would offer a “Super Snake” version of the MKIII SC.
