CSX 6012 on BaT
60-Mile 2008 Shelby Cobra 427 CSX6000 Continuation | Bring a Trailer A quick Google search on the chassis number shows it's made the rounds of a few dealers.

Pretty car.........
Would fit in my barn for sure... |
Nice car. Reminds me of Evan's old CSX, but for the fiberglass body of course.
I remember the last fiberglass CSX selling for $115,000 plus $5,000 buyer's fee. 1965 Shelby 427 S/C Cobra CSX4000 Continuation | Bring a Trailer |
Beautiful car for sure. I love black and there is nothing prettier but fighting swirls is a royal pain in the arse!!! Although when you can do it, it's a hard color to beat!!!
I could be wrong but I believe this car was for sale at a dealership in Chicago last year.....consignment style. I think the asking price was around 150k but 125k was the price they would let it go for. I almost went to look at it until I settled on my current car. |

If I were a private seller on BaT, then the comments from the peanut gallery would probably drive me nuts. BTW, I noticed our own Bill (MrMustang) is bidding. Go Bill! |
My guess is 120k-126k once the auction ends. One of my concerns at the time I was looking was the "sorting out" with that few miles and the time it had "sat up" with no driving over the last 8 years. All overcomable but still a concern I personally had.
Be great to see a member here buy it. |
Listed on ebay in 2014 in PA with 8 miles on it starting at $105k: 1965 Shelby roadster CSX 6000 series | eBay
Listed as sold in DC with 19 miles on it: Used 1965 Shelby Cobra Sold in Washington D.C. MD 20016 Classic Motors of Washington D.C. Listed in Oceanside NY in 2014 with a sideoiler and 287 miles on it: 1965 Shelby Shelby Cobra 427 2 Door Roadster | eBay |
Would be a good car for Bill, he has been without a cobra since I bought his last one.
|
Yeah...it was listed with 306 miles when in Chicago last year but it was really 30.6 as they misread the tenths being part of the miles. The picture of the dash confirmed it.

Somebody better check the inboard sidewalls of the rear tires ! it appears that something is cutting into it !! Ref: under car pic.
|
You're correct about the tire. I put Avons on mine, they are not as "plump". They may want to make that change.

#4974 $120,000 (reduced) #4803 $150,000 #4133 $135,000 All three have been for sale for some time. Interesting that there are no Kirkham's currently listed on CobraCountry. The last one I know of was 4pipes, which probably sold around its last and reduced asking price of $125,000. I'd guess say $115,000-$120,000 plus buyer's fee again, but you never do know with a solid black car. They are very attractive to some, not so much to others who don't want the maintenance. |

I think black looks amazing on either a 427 or 289 Cobra. I had a lot of fun with my black ERA and due to the size of the car (small), the paint maintenance was very manageable. My 2006 Shelby Hertz on the other hand.......
This car on BaT looks really nice, but I can only assume it's presently titled as a 2008, and it's a pity the seller doesn't have the details that can easily be found on one of the earlier listings via a link kindly provided above. Vinyl interior? No engine paperwork? No sorting/maintenance since new described? These statements/conclusions are from the present BaT listing/comments. Those door pockets....are all the CSX6xxx cars like that? I would have to change that immediately. |

Also, the seller/dealer admits to driving around Chicago last December, probably because one of the comments references surface rust and scratches. :( I don't think the seller/dealer is going to get their reserve, assuming there is one. |
It's offered with a copy of the MSO, not the original. I don't see any license plates. And no mention of current title and registration. Could be a nightmare to register.
I wouldn't even look at a car without a clear title. |
Wow... read right over the top oiler... yeah that will hurt it for sure. Definitely 110k arena

CSX 6012 on BaT
I also was interested in this car when it was listed by Bentley Gold Coast in Chicago. The interesting part was they listed the engine as a Shelby Built 427/468. Seems to have changed.....

If the seller doesn't have any receipts or the new buyer can't track them down, then registering that car will be one big headache for any CA buyer. Obviously, it's still a very beautiful car, but there's a few "knocks" that would lower any offer I would make, if I were in the market. And I'm not. |
