For some, it’s the sound of a big engine roaring through the side exhaust pipes and the sudden surge of acceleration that pushes you back when you step on the gas. Others can’t help but gaze at the curved fenders and are drawn to the beauty of the aluminum body. From the oil cooler and air intake on the hood to the roll bar and fender flares, this car is all about performance.

The Kirkham Cobras are the most beautiful and authentic of the aluminum-bodied replicas. Carroll Shelby himself was so impressed that he allowed Kirkham’s cars to drive alongside the original Cobras in the paddock at the Monterey Historic Races. An honor that Shelby has never granted to any other manufacturer...

This Kirkham has a vintage semi-competition chassis, a blue-painted Ford 302 engine (375 PK), a TKO600 transmission, a Quicktime clutch housing, a high-performance McCloud clutch, a soft top, a tonneau cover...

The car is registered in Belgium.
