1968 Shelby Cobra ERA

289 FIA / USRRC Cobra by ERA Charcoal Frost w/ Black Stripe T5 Track-Sorted

Built on ERA's renowned 289 FIA/USRRC platform, this Cobra replica nails the period look with the right hardware to back it up-light, sharp, and properly developed for street and track. Finished in Metallic Gray (Charcoal Frost) with black racing stripe and roundels, it rides on fresh black powder-coated Trigo pin-drives with knock-offs and low-mile Avon CR6ZZ tires. The exterior has been ceramic-coated and presents with a purposeful, vintage race vibe.
