The CSX1000 series was introduced in the mid-2000s after Carroll Shelby reached an agreement with AC to collaborate on a production run of aluminum-bodied continuation Cobras. Bodywork was hand-formed at AC’s Frimley facility in the UK over original Cobra wooden bucks before each car was sent to Shelby American in Las Vegas for assembly as a roller. After the partnership dissolved, production of bodies for CSX1000 cars was shifted elsewhere in the UK.

The CSX1000 series was introduced in the mid-2000s after Carroll Shelby reached an agreement with AC to collaborate on a production run of aluminum-bodied continuation Cobras. Bodywork was hand-formed at AC’s Frimley facility in the UK over original Cobra wooden bucks before each car was sent to Shelby American in Las Vegas for assembly as a roller. After the partnership dissolved, production of bodies for CSX1000 cars was shifted elsewhere in the UK.
This example is finished in Guardsman Blue and wears an AC Shelby nose badge that was distinct to the AC-bodied cars. Side pipes, quick-jack bumperettes, and a roll hoop are finished in black. Additional exterior equipment includes wind wings, black vinyl rear fender spats, and a Monza-style fuel filler cap. Halibrand-style 15” wheels feature painted centers and polished lips, and are secured by three-eared knock-offs. Goodyear Eagle tires measure 26.5×8.0” up front and 26.5×10.5” at the rear.
The cockpit is trimmed in black upholstery with color-matched carpeting over the floors, center tunnel, and seat backs. Features include black SFI latch-and-link lap belts, tinted plexiglass sun visors, and a cowl-mounted rearview mirror. The dash has been signed by Carroll Shelby.
A wood-rimmed steering wheels sits ahead of a Shelby-branded 180-mph speedometer, tachometer, and gauges monitoring coolant temperature, oil temperature, oil pressure, amperage, and fuel level. The five-digit odometer shows 2,500 miles, approximately 550 of which have been added by the seller.
The 427ci V8 features a Genesis cast iron side-oiler FE block as well as an aluminum intake manifold and cylinder heads. Induction is via a Holley Le Mans-style four-barrel carburetor in a turkey-pan cold air box. Additional equipment includes MSD ignition components, an oil cooler, and a Fluidyne aluminum radiator with dual electric cooling fans. An oil change was performed in May 2021.
Power is sent to the rear wheels via a Toploader wide-ratio four-speed manual transmission. The A-arm independent suspension incorporates coilovers all around. Stopping is handled by ventilated disc brakes with Shelby-branded calipers.
