Description
In Combining the best aspects of both British and American automobiles, Carroll Shelby managed to create a legend with the 289 Cobra, cementing his name in the history books for generations to come. Taking an AC chassis and body and shoehorning in a small-block Ford V-8, Shelby instantly had a hit on his hands. While the first 75 Cobras were fitted with 260 V-8 engines, the cars that would follow received a larger 289 engine. The Cobra was quoted at 271 bhp and weighed in at only 2,000 lbs., which was nearly 500 lbs. lighter than the Corvette. Watercolor on paper painting by David Lloyd Glover
