Feast your eyes upon this breathtaking 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica from the world leader in Shelby Cobra's -
SUPERFORMANCE. The only replica builder to be endorsed and licensed by racing legend and designer, Carroll Shelby.
Every car that leaves the Superformance factory is the best of the best with exacting details that truly make them
works of art. This particular Cobra is finished in Posilipo Blue with White hood stripes and Black leather
interior. You will not find another Superformance Cobra that came from the factory in this color Blue and White
stripes.
Meticulously built to the highest standards with all brand new parts from the top names in racing and performance
products. From the fire breathing 408 Windsor engine to the Tremec 3550 5 speed transmission right on back to the
independent rear suspension with 3:73 axle with coil over adjustable shocks, this beast was built to run and built
right. The engine has an Eagle cast stroker crank, Eagle H-beam connecting rods, Comp Cams roller camshaft,
Edelbrock Performer RPM cylinder heads, ARP main, connecting rod and head bolts as well as roller rocker arms. The
Holley Street Avenger 750cfm carb sits on top of an aluminum Weiend Stealth intake manifold. With 9.8:1 compression
ratio the desktop dyno estimates 450 hp and 480 ft-lbs of torque.
Even with all that power, stopping is no problem thanks to the Willwood power disk brakes and Goodyear Eagle GT
tires that wrap Trigo true knock off wheels. With only 5,200 miles since new, you will be able to enjoy your new
Cobra for many years and many miles to come. The only thing this Shelby needs is a new owner. The original
owner/builder spared no expense in building this simply stunning vehicle. He also spares no expense in maintenance
and care. All of the original build and purchase documents as well as the maintenance receipts will be included
with the car.
Mention Shelby Cobra to a group of car enthusiasts and heartbeats will quicken, memories will lead to great stories
and someone will bring up the beauty of the car. Just like the Porsche Speedster, Mercedes Gullwing Coupe, Auburn
Speedster and the ever famous Ferrari Spyder, the Cobra is one of the timeless greats. This example is no
exception!! The exterior has a show quality base coat/clear coat paint over a hand laminated fiberglass body. The
level of detail in the body and trim is simply amazing. All of the chrome, polished aluminum and painted parts are
of the highest quality. The Superformance Shelby Cobra is built to the highest quality detail with all new parts to
match the original style and design inside and out. These cars are brutally fast with a thundering, spine tingling
sound that is second to none.

Detroit Three autoworkers could get huge bonuses

Mon, 06 Jan 2014

For a long time, being a line worker for one of the Detroit Three has meant living with an uncertain future. With the health of American automakers on the rise, though, things are also starting to look up for the men and women building the cars. The latest sign that things aren't bad? Big profit-sharing checks.
According to The Detroit News, Ford, General Motors and Chrysler could end up paying over $800 million to 130,000 workers as part of a profit-sharing plan. According to The News, the economic impact of these profits in Michigan alone could exceed $400 million, besting the NFL's Super Bowl, MLB's All-Star Game and the NHL's Winter Classic for their economic impact.
This is the third straight year the Detroit Three have issued profit-sharing checks to UAW employees, and for many workers, the checks are as close as they'll get to a raise, due to the most recent contract between the union and the manufacturers. On average, employees at GM and Ford receive $1 for every $1 million in North American (not just the US) pre-tax profits. Chrysler, meanwhile, gets a similar deal, although the Auburn Hills-based company calculates profit sharing using 85 percent of the brand's global profits.

2013 Shelby 1000 unleashes its 1,200 horsepower ahead of NY show reveal

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

True story: Last fall, I had the opportunity to spend a week with Ford's new 2013 Shelby GT500 - the Blue Oval's factory Mustang with 662 horsepower and 631 pound-feet of torque. It's an amazing beast, to be sure. I'm not sure if it was Michigan's damp streets strewn with potholes and wet leaves, but at no point did I ever say to myself, "You know, Ford is on to a really good thing here, but what it really needs is about twice the power." And yet, for people in warmer climes with infrastructure in better nick - or for those whose muscle cars live their lives out on the track, there's apparently sufficient demand to warrant just such a beast.
Quick studies will recall that Shelby American launched its 1000 last year to commemorate its 50th anniversary, but it is returning to the New York Auto Show with a fresh version based on the 2013 GT500 I drove. The 2013 Shelby 1000 whips up 1,200 horsepower on pump gas thanks to beefed-up forced induction, engine internals and cooling. Wisely, it also incorporates an adjustable suspension and big brake package to make sure those ponies have the best chance being safely deployed to the ground.
What price the world's most powerful "production" muscle car? $154,995 for starters - donor GT500 not included. What, no convertible variant?
