If indeed the most sincere form of flattery is imitation, no automobile could enjoy a higher accolade than the Shelby American Cobra. The now famous brainchild of American icon Carroll Shelby, the early ‘small block’ 289 Cobra not only terrorized the competition on the world road racing stage, but captured the hearts of millions instantly to become the ultimate collectable for the savvy enthusiast.

CSX 2492 benefits from an older restoration that is still showing superbly with an original interior emanating a wonderful patina and integrity. Moreover, refinished in the correct and original, highly desirable color combination of red exterior and black leather interior, this Cobra also will be sold with the original numbers matching drivetrain. Thoroughly documented and detailed in the most recent edition of the Shelby American World Registry – CSX 2492 is truly a “no stories” example offered for the close scrutiny of the most discriminating aficionado.
