Shelby American 427SC
CSX4199, Silver Mink finish
(painted the color of the Lowther/Grossman #6  427 Competition Cobra at Sebring, 1966)


1966 Shelby GT350/CSX4199 photo above is hotlinked (same view, larger size).

This is an original 4000-Series Shelby Cobra with all-aluminum coachwork. Built and offered by S/C Motorsports, the most prestigious, and most-detail-committed Shelby-Authorized Dealer. This car has logged only 881 miles (less than 1,500 kilometers) and shows as-new. Its exquisite quality is self-evident—il est un chef d'oeuvre!

It's listed in the Shelby World Registry, and is titled as a 1965 Shelby Cobra—you can ship it overseas with this title. The hue is Silver Mink—the color The Lowther/Bob Grossman 427 Comp Cobra sported at the 1966 Sebring 12 Hours as the #6 car. So, yes... it is a period-correct Comp Car hue.

CSX4199 has prompted more gushing compliments than any of the other Shelby serpents we at S/C Motorsports have built.

Here are more specifics about CSX4199:
