The Series 1 was designed by Shelby American and was manufactured at the company’s facility in Las Vegas, Nevada. The carbon-fiber and fiberglass laminate bodywork are mounted on an aluminum chassis. The car is finished in silver with blue vinyl racing stripes and features a black soft top, front fog lamps, a heat extractor hood, dual-outlet Borla exhaust, and fender vents. The selling dealer notes that the driver side rocker panel shows evidence of paint blending.
The multi-piece 18″ five-spoke wheels wear Shelby center caps and are mounted with Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar tires that measure 265/40 up front and 315/40 out back. The car features a pushrod suspension with inboard mounted coilovers and remote reservoir dampers. Stopping power is provided by vented discs at all four corners. Scuffs are visible on the left front wheel.
The cockpit features bolstered seats that are trimmed in black leather with gray inserts and Carroll Shelby’s signature embroidered on the backrests. Equipment includes air conditioning, a carbon fiber shifter knob, a Monsoon CD/cassette stereo, power windows, and a serialized plaque on the dash that bears serial number CSX5145.
The four-spoke steering wheel frames a 170-mph speedometer, a tachometer with a 6,500-rpm redline, and auxiliary gauges. The digital odometer shows 166 miles, a handful of which have been added by the selling dealer.
The Oldsmobile-sourced 4.0-liter Aurora L47 V8 features Borla stainless steel headers and mufflers as well as a Shelby-specific engine management system and camshafts. The engine was factory rated at 320 horsepower and 290 lb-ft of torque.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transaxle made by RBT with ZF components.
