A high-quality wooden model kit

Introducing the Drift Cobra Racing Car model kit, a beautifully styled, two-seat convertible - a twist on what may be the most revered sports car of all time: the Shelby Cobra 427. The Cobra 427, produced between 1965-67, had a 7.0 liter 450-510 horsepower engine, did 0-60 mph in just over 4 seconds, and had a top speed of 185 mph.

Carroll Shelby, a former race car driver, and automotive designer was hired by the Ford Motor Co. to develop a high-performance racer able to compete with the dominant Italian race team of Ferrari. The Americans' four consecutive victories at the prestigious Le Mans 24-hour race between 1966-69, in Ford GT40s, is the stuff of legend. The Shelby Cobra race car stands out as an American icon, perhaps the greatest muscle car and most "posterized" car in history.

Measures 10.1" x  8.3" x 4.5". 370 pieces. Assembly difficulty: Hard, 9 hours

Recommended Age: 14+
