1965 Superformance Cobra MKIII

This 1965 Superformance Cobra MKIII delivers the raw excitement of a vintage Shelby Cobra with the craftsmanship, engineering, and reliability that have made Superformance the gold standard in Cobra recreations. Officially licensed, authorized, and endorsed by Carroll Shelby, Superformance remains the only Cobra builder granted full rights to replicate Shelby’s legendary 1960s race cars. Unlike pieced-together kit cars, each Superformance Cobra is professionally assembled as a complete rolling chassis using high-quality new components throughout. This particular example comes from the estate of its original southern-based owner and is powered by an Olthoff Racing-built 408ci Ford Racing aluminum stroker V8 backed by a Tremec T56 6-speed manual transmission. Finished in bright yellow with black Shelby-style stripes and showing just 17,575 miles, this MKIII is a beautifully executed Cobra that blends authentic style with serious modern performance.
