A genuine Shelby Cobra 427 Competition, CSX3018

Here’s a rare chance to own an exceedingly rare, genuine Cobra 427 Competition–not a replica or a continuation model.

One of just 23 built, this Competition Cobra–CSX3018–retains its original drivetrain and alloy body, hood, doors, and trunk lid.

The Shelby shows just 3300 miles and comes with documented ownership and competition history. Richard H. Messersmith, of Wilmette, Illinois, competed with the car in several SCCA Chicago region events, including races at Road America, Meadowdale and more.

Find this 1965 Shelby Cobra 427 Competition for sale from Fantasy Junction for $3,150,000. (The original price Mr. Messersmith paid for the Cobra? $9650–approximately $96,360 when adjusted for inflation.)
