Stunning 1966 Coil spring AC Cobra 427 with only 23 693 km from new .

The car is in perfect working order and shows a very nice patina. Everything is original, with the sole exception of:
- As it recevied 5 or 6 differents coats of various paints all its life, a total bare metal restoration has been completed in France by the sole Shelby approved team, the well known ATS shop in Le Mans, six years ago.
- As mentioned in the 2009 "Shelby Registery": “The original 428 engine was changed by a medium- rise 427 side-oiler, a reverse hood scoop with an opening at the rear edge of the hood, at the sale were the stock parts previously removed from the car.”
It was never involved in any accident and all mechanical elements are the correct period ones. All numbers are marching. It is a part of an important collection and hasn't been driven much. He even entered an historical rally in Morocco. Due to local roads, the paint suffered during this rally and a fanatic would have the car repainted. It is now working fine, but he finally decided a correct 289 is a better choice for historical races, and he doesn't want to loose the patina of such a car.

This car is immediately available for sale in France with French papers.

The owner will consider a part exchange with another very nice 289 Cobra or any other major car.
