Default Re Shelby Roadsters

Jinx,

These figures are from the Shelby Amerian World Registery and could vary some as more cars are accounted for.

260 engine cars-= 75 total
289 engine cars== 580 total.
leaf spring cobra total== 655

427 & 428 roadsters== 348 total
That is the coil spring total and does not count a few stretched frames that he made for movie studios.

427 breakdown== CSX 3101-3200== 427 engines
CSX 3201-3299== 428 engines
CSX 3300-3360== 427 engines

Only 60 competition 427s were made and they had single 4 barrell carbs and are now listed as C/S cars. The other 427 engines were left over from the 1964 bunch.

The registery breaks everything down right to the type of taillights and if they had hood scoops, oil coolse scoops and ets. And as I stated some cars have been modified and some have not been accounted for.
