Описание
The Cobra Coupe was designed in order to make Shelby's Cobra competitive with Ferrari on higher-speed European and North American circuits. Its debut at Daytona in 1964 was cut short when the 1st place #14 Cobra Coupe burst into flames on pit lane. The first win would instead come in March at the 12 Hours of Sebring with Shelby American legends Bob Holbert and Dave McDonald in the #10 car. This win heralded a changing of the guard in international sports car racing as the Cobra Coupe fought Ferrari's 250 GTO for supremacy in GT racing throughout the 1964 season, This battle included a Cobra victory at Lemans, and only a conspicuous cancellation of the final race of the season in would keep Shelby from taking the Manufacture's Championship for 1964. Ferrari would famously bow out of GT racing altogether for 1965 leaving Shelby to dominate the champion-ship including a follow-up win at Lemans. This car is a tribute to the legendary 1964 Sebring winner - the #10 Shelby Cobra Coupe. This is the only tribute car built by Super Performance and it has the personally endorsed by Carroll Shelby. It is powered by a Roush 427 with 560 hp/550 lb-ft and backed by a blue- printed Tremec 6-speed. At the time this vehicle was sold to its existing owner, this rare “tribute” Cobra was represented in a very rare reunion between Mr. Carroll Shelby and the vehicles original designer Mr. Peter Brock.
