Shelby Cobra

Bears. As cool as they are, they can be complete assholes. They regularly eat post offices and Outbacks here in Colorado. They go through the trash, and generally make a nuisance of themselves. Despite being cute, they will eat you too if cornered.

The original Shelby Cobra Roadster is one of the most desirable cars out there. But one thing that stands in the way of some folks from enjoying classic cars is the fact that many of them only came with manual transmissions.

Any real ’60s era Shelby Cobra is an iconic car and worth big money. Just imagine what the very first Shelby Cobra would be worth. That is exactly what RM Sotheby’s will be auctioning off in a couple weeks in Monterey.

Got $1.2 million to spare? You could be the new owner of this gorgeous 1963 AC Shelby Cobra 260 Mark I that recently went up for sale. This early Shelby has had just two owners, and is in extraordinary condition for a 52 year-old car.
