Thread: Backdraft 427 Cobra

Hi Guys

Just joined the site today. tons of great cars on the site! Thought I would share a few pics of a car I picked up earlier this month.













427 cu in V8, 505 hp, 525 ft-lb torque, no ABS, traction control or air bags. If it doesn't kill you, it's a blast to drive!

Thanks for looking

Hi Kains

No it wasn't. The car was just completed and I took delivery in early January. Still breaking in the engine and getting used to drive and feel of the car

thanks

You don't see many real cobras like that anymore. I mostly see replicas which are still nice none the less. Welcome to the 4!. And great looking car

How do you tell if it's real or not?

Amazing car.

It's not a real cobra....it's a reproduction by backdraft.

Hi Aarron,

thanks! the car is a blast to drive, total assault on the sense.
The original 1965 Shelby 427 Cobras probably sell between $500K-$1.5million so it's a good assumption any you see nowadays are reproductions. This one in particular is made by a company called Backdraft.

thanks
