The Shelby Cobra – manufactured during a six-year period from 1962 to 1967 – came in three distinct models: the MkI, the MkII, and MkIII. Initially, they were produced with a 4.3-liter Ford V8 engine, which was later upgraded 4.7-liter and then ultimately with a 7-liter V8. This last change in fitting caused a further revamp to the chassis so as to support the additional horsepower. With two different ratings – 425 hp for the standard model and 485 hp for the competition car – the Shelby Cobra MkIII could reach top speeds that ranged between 164 and 185 mph. Also known as the AC Cobra 427 (named after the original 427-cubic inch engine), the majority of the production units were actually fitted with Ford’s lower cost 428 engine. Even given the wide success and popularity, the car has seen as a collector’s item. Considered by many to be an icon of design and performance, the model was ultimately deemed a financial failure and was discontinued in 1967.
