Shelby Cobra 427S/C Super Snake (1965) in Metallic Blue (1:18 scale)
- The Shelby registry indicates only two 1966 > Super Snake> Cobras were built, one of which was destroyed in an accident. On 13th January 2007 it fetched $5.5 million at the Barrett-Jackson auction, making it the most expensive American car ever sold. The Snake is powered by a twin-supercharged, 800 horse power, 427 engine with a 3-speed automatic gearbox. Built by Carroll Shelby just to see how fast he could make a Cobra go, it was his personal car for many years. Bet it was a tad twitchy in the wet!
