Pedal to the Metal Muscle Cars is proud to present this exceptional Shelby Cobra 427 S/C – CSX4416, offered under our exclusive consignment program on behalf of its owner.
The Shelby Cobra 427 S/C remains one of the most iconic American sports cars ever created. Originally engineered by Carroll Shelby to take on Ferrari’s V12 GTO and GM’s big-block Corvette, the 427 Cobra redefined performance through brutal power, lightweight construction, and razor-sharp handling. CSX4416 is a continuation model that perfectly captures that legendary formula.

The Car
This CSX4000-series Cobra is a continuation example built to authentic 427 S/C specifications. With only 1,979 miles on the odometer, it remains in outstanding condition.
Built with an aluminum body and finished with the classic Le Mans stripe package, this Cobra delivers the raw, analog driving experience that made the original cars legendary. Lightweight, mechanical, and uncompromising — exactly as a Cobra should be.
