The allure of a car like this 1965 Shelby Cobra Factory Five is that it instantly puts you in touch with the same race-ready feel as the day Carroll Shelby dropped the first Ford V8 into an AC Ace. But the advantage of a replica coming decades later than the original is getting a true evolution. This includes fuel-injected power, an upgraded suspension, and a five-speed. This even has even a few luxuries that not all Factory Five cars have, like a soft top and side curtains. It goes nicely .....
with the working heater to make this feel a lot less like a bare-bones roadster when you decide to be on dawn patrol for a car event. So you still have a track-worthy Cobra, but this also has a nice touch of grand touring appeal.
