The Shelby Cobra is pure automotive rebellion. Born in the early 1960s from Carroll Shelby’s uncompromising vision, it combined lightweight design with brutal American V8 power to create a car that rewrote performance history. Defined by the 289 Street, 289 FIA, and the legendary 427 S/C, the Cobra evolved from a nimble roadster into a race-winning weapon—and ultimately into the most fearsome big-block powerhouse that became an automotive icon. Each vehicle is an official Shelby, and is built with the authenticity to match, carrying an official Shelby-issued CSX chassis number that secures its place within the Cobra legacy.
SHELBY 427 S/C - CSX6000
The Shelby 427 S/C - CSX6000 Cobra faithfully captures the power, presence, and proportions of the original big-block Shelby legend, its predecessor. To accommodate the massive big-block V8, Shelby originally re-engineered the Cobra with a widened body, fortified frame, redesigned chassis, and new independent suspension—built to handle increased torque, larger wheels, and wider tires, mirroring the builds of today with added safety features. Carrying an official Shelby-issued CSX chassis number, the CSX6000 stands as the ultimate expression of big-block Cobra performance.
SHELBY 289 FIA - CSX7000
The Shelby 289 FIA - CSX7000 is the 289 Cobra that dominated FIA and USRRC racing in the 1960s.

Faithfully recreating the FIA competition spec, it features a lightweight chassis, independent suspension, and period-correct bodywork. Available in hand-laid fiberglass or hand-formed aluminum - designed around the small block era. Each chassis is issued with an official Shelby CSX number and documentation.
Shelby 289 Street - CSX8000
