30K Miles - 1964 Shelby Cobra 289

1964 Shelby Cobra 289

In the world of sports car legends few cars achieve and sustain iconic status, fewer still within moments of introduction. So began, in 1963 the incomparable mystique of the original Shelby Cobra. Over the past 60 years, the Cobra has retained a rightful legendary place in history – spanning cultural, performance, and investment categories, breaking new ground with each decade as fast as the tires could hold launching to top speeds.

This Shelby, CSX2311 is a later series production 289, fitted with the highly desirable rack and pinion steering and rare factory option twin-4BBL carburetors. Recorded in the World Registry of Cobras and GT40s, CSX2311 was billed to Shelby American January 24, 1964, and shipped to Los Angeles, CA, finished in green with a black interior. Invoiced March 3, 1964, to Warner Wooten Ford, Inc. Cocoa, Florida as “1 Cobra-Ford, chassis CSX2311, Vineyard Green”, the car was priced at $5,195.00 and outfitted with the following “Class A” accessories: less sun visors, WSW tires, and luggage rack, radio and antenna, dual four-barrel carburetors and manifold, Blue Streak tires, and antifreeze for a total of $5,866.25.

We imported this Cobra back from Europe late last year and have just finished some minor sorting on the mechanicals and fitted new tires. Ready without excuse now for touring, shows, or sitting proud in your collection, this 30K original mile Cobra is an enticing prospect to add to your garage.
