2008 Custom Cobra Roadster Replica – 427 Stinger Edition

Unleash the legend. This 2008 Custom Cobra Roadster Replica is a professionally built tribute to the iconic 1965 Shelby Cobra, blending classic lines with modern performance. Titled as a 2008 custom build, this roadster is street legal, meticulously crafted, and a guaranteed head-turner at any car meet or cruise night.

 

Under the hood roars a professionally built Ford 427 stroker V8, dyno’d at 485 horsepower, mated to a Tremec TKO600 5-speed manual transmission. A deep, loping idle and explosive acceleration define the experience. The side pipes growl with authority, while the Edelbrock aluminum heads, Holley 750 carb, and custom MSD ignition ensure reliability and firepower.

 

The lightweight fiberglass body sits atop a custom powder-coated tubular chassis, offering strength without excess weight. The suspension is fully independent front and rear with QA1 adjustable coilovers, and Wilwood 4-piston disc brakes on all four corners provide confident stopping power.

 

Finished in Indigo Blue with Wimbledon White Le Mans stripes, the paint is show-quality and deep enough to dive into. The cockpit features black leather racing buckets, a wood-rimmed Moto-Lita steering wheel, vintage-style Smiths gauges, and a dash finished in brushed aluminum.

 

Other features include:

 

Halibrand-style 17” knock-off wheels wrapped in Nitto NT555 G2 performance tires

Custom roll bar (driver side), stainless steel quick jacks

Aluminum radiator with electric fan

3.73 limited-slip rear differential

 

 

With only 3,200 miles since completion, this Cobra replica has been meticulously maintained and stored indoors. It combines raw power with show car looks — built to be driven, admired, and most of all, enjoyed.

 

Not for the faint of heart. This is an authentic Cobra experience—without the $1 million price tag.
