Shelby 427S/C Cobra, CSX6045. Intense Blue Pearl (PPG#5357) finish.

This blue beauty is offered for sale by its original owner. With only 4,650 thoroughly-pampered miles [7,500 km] and fully-sorted, it’s ready for you to enjoy the thrill of a driving experience that comes only from a Shelby Cobra.

The handlaid fiberglass body is finished in show-quality Blue Pearl PPG paint—also known as 40th Anniversary Blue.

It’s titled and registered in Colorado as a 1965 Shelby Cobra 427 (replica). I’m the second owner.
