1967 Shelby Cobra 427 - 1 Of 260 427 Cobra Street Cars, Previously Owned By Collector Otis Chandler Few automobiles occupy the same legendary status as the Shelby Cobra 427 Street Car. Conceived by Carroll Shelby as the ultimate expression of raw American horsepower in a lightweight British sports car, the 427 Cobra represented the culmination of Shelby's relentless pursuit of performance. Built upon a purpose-designed coil-spring chassis and powered by Ford's thunderous big-block V-8, the 427 Street Cobra delivered breathtaking acceleration and race-inspired handling that few road cars of its era could rival. Produced in extremely limited numbers, with just 260 genuine factory Street Cobras completed, these cars remain among the most coveted and valuable American performance automobiles ever built. Offered here is an exceptional example that has recently benefited from a comprehensive restoration returned to its factory-correct specifications.It left Shelby American painted green with a black interior. The car was billed to Don Seelye Ford of Kalamazoo, Michigan, in September 1966, with the only added option being a radio. Records show Seelye Ford received a freight credit, and because of this, the car was most likely trucked out to the dealership in Michigan. Its first known owner was Timothy H. Parker of Houston, Texas, from whom it was purchased in the early 1970s by Donald Mansker, also of Houston. The car is equipped with its iconic Sunburst knock-off wheels wrapped in Goodyear Blue Dot tires, and is accompanied by its tools, grease gun, and spare tire. Adding further significance, this Cobra was previously part of the renowned Otis Chandler Collection, one of the world's most respected assemblages of historically important automobiles. Its history is thoroughly documented in the Shelby Registry, further reinforcing its authenticity and provenance. With its outstanding restoration, exceptional ownership history, factory-correct presentation, and status as one of only 260 factory-built Shelby 427 Street Cars, this Cobra represents an extraordinary opportunity to acquire one of the most important American performance cars ever produced. Whether destined for the finest concours events, prestigious collections, or spirited road use, it embodies the uncompromising spirit that made the Shelby Cobra an enduring automotive icon. -
