This 1965 Shelby Cobra is a Factory Five car assembled by a fellow in Wisconsin and signed by Carroll Shelby. Unlike most Cobra replicas, this one has a Ford 427 cu. in. V8 with aluminum heads and other go-fast parts. All in all, a very exciting car. The 427 Cobra is one of the few cars I dream about. For sale at BZ Motors in west Austin, linked at right. Asking $82,500.
Caught this last October at COTA. Lister was a British car manufacturer, made a number of race cars in the 1950s and later. This race car body was designed by aerodynamicist Frank Costin for the 1959 season, powered by a 331 cu. in. Corvette engine. However, it was immediately made obsolete by the new rear-engined Cooper race cars.
