I thought you might like a look at this awesome Shelby Cobra CSX4891. This car was built by Shelby American and is about as true to the original as you'll find...except even more powerful. This car is powered by a 575 HP Side-Oiler Ford V8, backed by a Toploader four-speed, and a Dana 44 rear. It even has the true Halibrand pin drive knockoff wheels, with Goodyear Racing Tires. As you can see in the video, this car is amazingly quick. It's hard to imagine ever having more fun in an automobile. I hope you find it interesting, thanks for taking a look!
This car was filmed at Fast Lane Classic Cars in St. Charles, MO

The most PERFECT American sports car EVER made! If I could own 1 car only, for my garage, that would be it.
@XWriter100 That car would be Death in snow. We are talking Fun play vehicle. Not year round cruiser. But I live in Washington.
That car SCREAMS class and testosterone!!
RIP Caroll Shelby
I fell in love with these cars the very first time I ever saw one. Great looking little sports car with a huge engine. Such a straight forward idea, kinda hard to believe nobody had done it before Mr. Shelby.
Absolut perfect.
97% perfect.
100 % for me with the chrome bumper.
I love these more than the car lift brackets !
and a high ram dual quad mamifold two 4 barrel carbs !
The sound of that through my amplified speakers & subwoofer was amazing! Thanks for sharing what must've been a joyful experience.
Simply the meanest , sexyest thing ever put on four wheels.
.......it was a BEAST. I believe for a number of years it was the world's fastest stock production car.
@@patrickhenry948
It was. Still one of the nastiest cars ever built.
@@289cobra9 .......yes ......pure unadulterated raw muscle, put every other muscle car to shame. In a class by itself..... even today it could hold it's own.
Love the Cobra
Carroll Shelby museum, Las Vegas . definently worth checking out. RIP. Carroll
Great to see a classic actually moving instead of watching some wanker walking around it at car show
That would make you the wanker watching wankers walk around cars at car shows then?
Best Motor Car ever built - end of...
12/24/2019 The 27 thumbs down folks probably drive electric cars. They will never get it.
😄👍
Thanks for the ride on this awesome roadster. Greetings from Belgium.
+Jean-Marie Balaes Glad you liked it, thank you for watching!
indeed one of my favourite cars of all time, light weight, big power, good handling. even look how it launches, its perfectly straight. most new cars can't even do that. great video amigo.
I'm really amazed how it can plant down all that power. It's extremely quick....thanks for checking it out Murray.
I liked hearing the sound of that NICE !!!
It really does sound great....thanks for watching!
Can't beat proper old school muscle sounds awesome just ticking over
I had a ride in a Shelby Cobra 427 in the UK, 1966/7, not sure when as it was a longtime ago.The car is a beast and the sound is addictive.
Wow. I have Ridden in a Blue 427 Cobra, (With a Rich College Student!) Southern Illinois University- Carbondale! 0-100- and back to 0 in 13 Seconds! Yep, I sure nailed the Seat Cushions Going Up, and The Race Harness, coming Down!
.....if that won't get your adrenaline in overdrive, nothing will.
Went to SIU myself. Would loved to have rode in the beast. 👍🏽
beauty and the beast all in one thanks for your vids i really enjoy them
I'm glad you like them, thank you for watching!
Cobra's are the BADDEST cars on the planet!!!
He wanted to win at LeMans the biggest motor in the smallest car he could find. The best cheat slip ever.
Great video. The car is beautiful and the music it makes is beautiful.
Good stuff Bud!! That's one Car I like to ride in before I die!!☺
I can't imagine anything that is more fun to drive or ride in. They are ridiculously powerful.
RamblinAround Ferrari P3/P4 way more fun true machinery than this pigg iron.
hank williams Guess you don't mind people thinking you're a simple doofus....
DO IT!!!
A friend of mine has one of these . It had a 351 in it when he bought it with 427 emblems on the fenders. He dropped in a 427 and it's freaking awesome! I rode in a bunch of muscle cars through the years but never anything like this.He punched it down on a steep hill in thr neighborhood in second gear and scared the hell out of me. He says next time we'll start out in first. I never could imagine anything nailing me in the seat like this. Reminds me of Carroll Shelby offering a large bill on the dash if anyone could grab it when he mashed it down.
Nothing like a mean,nasty snake. The sound is awesome. Thanks for posting.
It is an awesome beast ...thanks for watching!
.........growing up we knew it as a 'Vette Killer". This car is so fast it's scary.
My uncle let me drive his replica....oh my god, so much torque
The cobra strikes back wonderfull car fast so fast and furious i love it 😎 cool car color stunning thank you jeff and Jordan for this video
Great video.
Thanks for uploading it.
Great car.
Thanks for watching, we appreciate it!
Reminded me of The Gumball Rally
Hell yes
Some of these classics will give modern cars a run for their money. Thanks for this.
Reg.
Oh yeah, that car was a blast. Really can't imagine needing anything faster. Thanks for watching, we appreciate it.
Looks good, sounds good, and I know it smells good too. The only things I would add are safety harnesses vs lap belts. My Cobra has them, and they comfortable and look like they belong in the car.
Best of all
A FORD MOTOR ORAHHHH!
I THINK I'M IN LOVE
Great camera work! That certainly is a dream car :)
Thanks for taking a look my friend, I appreciate it!
ONE OF MY DREAMS CARS.
Glad you like it....thank you for watching!
Was this a production car? How many did they make?
Love the Goodyear billboards. All Cobras should be equipped with them.
I agree completely, they really complete the car.
Beautiful car you have there.
I can almost see Steve McQueen in it!
Love that sound
Mines coming soon with a side oiler and an 8 stack !!!!!!
She is a beauty. 🇺🇸🇺🇸
That is a beautiful car. I once road in a kit car called a Spyder or something like that. The body was similar to this one but with less rounded styling. The guy said he made the body out of fiberglass and put it on a regular small car. I think an aluminum body like this one would be a better option though - if only for safety and sturdiness.
This particular car has a fiberglass body. The one that I started in the showroom the other day, has an aluminum body. Shelby American makes them whichever way you prefer. Thanks for checking it out!
If only you could get test drives in all the vehicles on ur channel 😅
Historic Car, very nice !
Its the best classic for ever.
I Wish I'm in love that is one sweet ride
I'm glad you like it Jim, thanks for watching!
Driven this last weekend by F1 World Champion, Sebastian Vettel, at the Circuit of the Americas during the US Grand Prix. He also added his signature to the dash board.
That is so awesome that he drove it....and signed the dash...even better.
Best car ever
I say only
G O O D 👟 Y E A R Silver Streak E A G L E !
Beautiful beast.
Thanks for watching!
The 427 is a monster but a v12 Ferrari is a symphony of power ! RIP Caroll & Enzo !
Yes you're right,ever seen the film gumball rally with the cobra 427 racing the Ferrari 365 GTB 4 Daytona from coast to coast.
Best sports car ever made by far. I’ve wanted one for over 50 years. Can I assume that’s a Super Performance since it bears the Shelby logo?
This is a true Shelby American CSX "continuation" Cobra.
Fantabulous!!!!
Greatest car ever
Definitely one of my all-time favorites too. Thanks for taking a look!
4:00 the tires got taller from all that torque, amazing!
Beautiful 👍🏻
Thanks for watching Tom!
It's a nice Cobra, but not a '65 car, but rather, from decades later, built in Las Vegas by inmates. A real '65 would have been built by AC Cars Ltd. of Thmes-Ditton, Surrey, south of London, and made out of aluminium on a superleggera frame attached to the chassis.
Great ride (understated)! Question though about the close up of the right rear tire ~ 4:01 under hard acceleration .... Is that the toe in that's changing or am I seeing centrifugal force expanding the diameter of the tire?
+2wattsout It's riding on bias ply race tires, so it's most likely the tire growing taller during acceleration.
Watch a top fuel dragster in slow motion. The rear tires seem to stretch a LOT under full acceleration.
freakin AWESOME is all yoi can say...
This car looks amazing, I wish I had one
They still build and sell them
HQ is Las Vegas, NV.
Then there's the replicas for about 1/2 price. But only a CSX is the real deal
I would give my first born child to own that car!!!!
moisesfunes24
2wattsout a big problem with originals was dynamic toe in under acceleration. These recreations apparently have the same problem (rubber end on toe link). For the life of me, I do not understand why you would repeat all the mistakes on a newly constructed car. Especially when lots of the parts are not totally faithful to original designs anyway.
There isn't much of anything out there "factory" made that can out accelerate one of these. I have yet to see it.
Man! I am so jealous
Sexiest car ever built.
Once you get bitten by the Snake, it's over. My dream car. If I was a cop, I would pull him over just to look at the car. Wouldn't give him a ticket no matter how fast he was going, just a privilege just to touch it and then maybe I would car jack him and leave him with the keys to my patrol vehicle. Just a thought nothing more 😂
British class and American muscle combination 😀
How do you turn this on?
God please I want one so bad.
Short shifts let it go full throttle take the revs up
427 is a beast but I prefer the refinement of the 289 version.
Small block does give you better weight distribution...
A+++
Yeah, this one...love this car!
Very sexy car ... would be great to take that to the Sonic for some Chili Cheese Tater Tots and Lemonade ...
It really would be a blast. Thanks for watching!
From Fastlane cars?
Someone knows the color name the blue?
New vids look great my friend, and I had an erection the entire time. Nothing gay, it's just the 427.
It really is an awesome machine...restores manhood to even the most impotent of men. Thanks for checking it out my friend, glad you like the video.
No, no. Thank you for posting.
A shot of adrenaline.
I've heard these cars can go from 0 to 100 and back to 0 again in 10 seconds.
Well actually close, the King Cobra that Mr Shelby had would do that and there were only 2 of them. Carrol had 1 and the other was sold to Bill Cosby and it got crashed. The one you see here would almost do it and it could under certain conditions. But if you have never ridden in one of these cars it would be hard to explain the amount of forces pushing you in the seat under full throttle, amazing really.
I understand about the King Cobra. To satisfy my curiosity, I found an article that compared the '65 Shelby Cobra 427 S/C with the Viper RT/10. It's an old article but still relevant. The Viper did 0-100-0 in 14.1 secs and the Cobra in 15.2. Not the10 sec the KC can do, but still incredibly impressive.
Car & Driver test: 0-100-0 in 13.2sec.
Actually there is a small factory in Germany building replicas with huge power. Just hit "Weineck cobra" in the search. 0-200kph (0-120mph) in about 5.4seconds...
That is a really quick car. LOL
Yes, it is seriously fast...thanks for watching!
Alls we gotta do is sell two of our new John Deeres and we could have one of these. Question is, can it plow a field?
exelente gracias y compartido
575 HP would blow that Dana 44 to pieces if pushed a little. A Dana 60 is more in order with a 4 pinion Power Lok differential.
I think it gets away with it because it's such a lightweight car.
Anybody sells turbos for 427's?
Road must be wet & slippery, lol.
nice
Thanks for watching!
Dude if ur gonna get on it get on it. Its starts coming alive at 65 hundred rpm.
what is the color is beautiful
i want one
Is it an original or reproduction?
It's not an original...it's what is known as a continuation Cobra. It is actually built by Shelby American and is almost exactly like the original, except a bit more powerful.
+RamblinAround 1965 good year for cars.
RamblinAround Not a CSX either
Not all Shelby's are created equal.
Look at 10 of them, small blocks, Big Blocks, fiberglass bodies versus aluminum bodies, rectangular steel frames versus cylindrical steel frames, 4 speed vs fives, carburation versus fuel injection, position of engine in compartment, even the bodies are different. The small block, petite body, is better going into a corner and coming out of a corner. Not all Shelby's are great handlers.
Iron American Dream on UA-cam Share it. Take a ride across the promised land. Ride a Harley.
OMFG!!! Heaven ... And Hell! >8^)
Thanks for watching, we appreciate it!
carporn
Show us how bad it really is! Unleash that FE.
Didn't put it on the rug. Come on man .
вам кажется это старая машина а так она спортивная еси вы не знали
Tight car. Weak vid'. And plz dont take it the wrong way its just that many of us are watchin and hopin to see one of the meanest autos on 4 wheels spit venom and it just wasnt happening. I can understand if, and i assume that the case is, this isnt his car and so he has to drive it with care but it would have been nice if he could have found somewhere other than parking lots and traffic shared roads to open her up a little more. None the less she's a beauty. Perhaps at some point down the road i'll have the $ to own, and a stable to keep, one of these all-time classics!!!
Has anyone got a towel? So sorry, but it’s was toooooo much.
:-)
you drive it like a old lady would.
Mmmm........venom porn. 🥴
