Here's another on ebay. "Excalibur Cobra".

1965 Shelby Cobra Roadster 2 Door | eBay


"Excalibur Cobra cars are not kit cars and can be easily distinguished from the kit cars by the build quality"

This unique, very low mileage only 3,303 miles “first of its kind” car was commissioned by a 6' 7” tall Ambassador from the Excalibur Automobile Corporation in 1996, and complies with Federal requirements of the year of manufacture. This car with its 102.5 inch wheelbase, indeed is the only stretched cobra replica, out of the approximately 160 cobra cars manufactured by the Excalibur Automobile Corporation.

Located on the fire wall, is a plaque by the manufacturer about the uniqueness of the car. Excalibur Cobra cars are not kit cars and can be easily distinguished from the kit cars by the build quality. The Excalibur Cobra has a lower center of gravity, more luxurious and longer than other Cobra cars (kit or otherwise).

With this commissioned car, Excalibur went further and made the car far more luxurious, with many distinguishable features, such as adjustable rear air suspension, power steering, higher quality control switches, twin electric door mirrors, high back leather seats, lockable parcel shelf, heat and A/C and many more features.

This is an opportunity to own a very unique car, the only one in existence, a true stunner and far superior to any other Cobra car.
The tires were replaced last summer because of their age"

Electric exterior door mirrors, exterior door handles, fancy looped bumpers, wood grain panelling, and they still don't have cup holders but they do have the wind wing hinges on backward... Ha Ha Ha..

Windex is way cheaper than wax, and way quicker/easier to wipe on/wipe off...

I'd bet that the dark blue Street Beast car with the goofy rear-end is probably a collision repair that someone tried to graft (or fabricate) a new rear body section onto... it's butt ugly (literally).

This is another in question.

At least it's a wrap, so you can pull it off like glass's on a table cloth !

Wonder if the baseball bat goes with the car, to fend off hecklers?

BTW, is that a yellow Lakewood traction bar peaking out by RR tire?

Good eye on the yellow,.....what ever it is, it can't be the frame, too low.

What's with the aluminum or tin panel on the inside of the door's ?


Custom Body wrap-

"Mistress of Fire Cobra Tribute developed by owner with Graphic Artist. One of a kind Vinyl Wrapping developed with Artist and applied to only this 1967 Shelby Cobra Car. As an added bonus when you are bored with the wrap you can peel it off and expose the Yellow paint job with white strips"


I think the guy should smash the crap out of the entire car with the bat, ending it's miserable exitance as a Cobra wannabee.

Ah, to the owner and maybe buyer,...just kidding. (I think)

On the good side, the engine has had good machining and parts, just don't like the injection.

For someone who's gone through some unfortunate circumstances yourself, I'd think you'd be less than likely to initiate a pile-on against someone else who just tried to enjoy our hobby in his own personal way.
The "Mistress of Fire" Cobra paint scheme was made famous by the Franklin Mint with their collector edition models. Not my cup o' tea, but to say:
" I think the guy should smash the crap out of the entire car with the bat, ending it's miserable exitance as a Cobra wannabee." (sic)
is probably an indication that you need to rethink the way you view and treat others in the hope that your own life will improve and become more positive as a result.
I'm sure you'll have a snappy comeback to all of this (spare me please), but the truth is I mean you no ill will - I'm just surprised that someone who has been so vocal about his own hardships can even think about trashing someone else for sport.
Sermon adjourned.

Really?

4 seats?

That has to look like the south end of a north bound horse.

Just my $.02 worth.

Reading comprehension is a heck of a thing. The Cobra currently in question has the requisite 2 seats.

Oh come on, we're just having fun here, and like I said Buzz, I'm just kidding.

A lot of the car looks nice, except for the wrap and the alum panels on the doors.
Wish it had a bigger photo of the yellow paint underneath.

I wrote him saying the wrap is quite artistic, but I'd like to see what's under the wrap, but he said he just has the one photo of the yellow with white stripes.

The first "dragon theme" wrap we had on the sprint car turned out like sh** and got a lot of ribbing from the guys, but it was fun. Same way here buddy.

How about stretching one to say 8 or 12 seats and making a Las Vegas limo?

No problem with several row's of seats, that's a true Limo.
