Description

This 1965 Backdraft Cobra RT3 doesn't play nice—it shows up, takes over, and leaves everything else looking soft. Built in South Africa in January 2017 and driven just 2,071 miles, this isn't some overplayed replica—it's a sharpened, modern-day street weapon dressed in vintage skin.

Finished in a rare Birch Green that hits different in every light, this Cobra doubles down with twin black center stripes and matching side stripes that stretch the car low and mean. The GT body option gives it that wide, planted stance, while the full RT3B blackout package deletes anything that doesn't serve attitude.

Under the hood? Straight violence. A Roush 427R pumping out 572 horsepower and 539 lb-ft of torque, paired to a Tremec TKO 600 5-speed that puts you fully in control of the chaos. Up front, coilovers keep it tight. Out back, a BMW M3-inspired independent rear with 3.73 gears makes sure this thing doesn't just spin—it hooks and goes.

Inside, it's stripped of fluff and built with intent. Black leather with green diamond stitching punches through the cabin, matched with a carbon-fiber dash and GT gauges staring you down. Cam-lock 4-point belts keep you planted, while the Sabelt wheel reminds you this isn't a cruiser—it's a driver's car, period.

The finishing shots hit just as hard—LED headlights, ceramic-coated side pipes that crack like gunfire, and 18ā€ Halibrand-style gloss black wheels with knockoffs wrapped in Nitto rubber. Even the Raydyot mirror keeps it old-school cool without killing the edge.

This Cobra doesn't chase nostalgia—it drags it into the present and makes it louder, faster, and a whole lot meaner.
