Guys have been building replicas of the iconic Shelby Cobra for nearly as long as the Cobra itself has been around. There are many bad versions such as one based on an MGB Roadster or the one based on a 1980’s Corvette. But this one here is pretty unique with a supercharged 346 HP 3.0 V6 Taurus SHO backed up by a T5 Transmission. The Yamaha designed SHO Motor does really look cool under the hood of the Cobra, and the weight savings has got to make the car handle even better.
