DR

Next January, the Mecum auction house will auction this Shelby Cobra 427 which has several peculiarities.

First, it sports the color "Charcoal Gray" which has only been applied to 5 examples of this iconic sports car.

But above all, it is simply the personal car of… Carroll Shelby, former driver and designer of the Cobra.

Delivered new in 1965 to the Texan, the car was his property until 2012. This Cobra with chassis number CSX3178 received an automatic transmission at some point in its life.

Restored in 2019 and returned to its original configuration, the beautiful American has every chance to unleash passions, because we remember that in 2016, another Cobra which had also belonged to Shelby but was equipped with a smaller engine, had been auctioned for € 11.2 million!
