It was Road & Track that referred to piloting a Shelby Cobra as "driving at its brightest"; this car being no exception.
Noted for its pivotal role in the early days of Shelby American, CSX 2032 - more commonly known as the "Lance Reventlow Cobra" - is a true one-of-one.
Invoiced to British-born American entrepreneur, racing driver and heir to the Woolworth fortune Lance Reventlow on January 2, 1963, CSX 2032 represents an important chapter in Carroll Shelby's enduring legacy.
As the 32nd Cobra scheduled for production, CSX 2032 was one of only 73 Cobras fitted with the early 260ci Hi-Po V8 engine.
Delivered in white with a red interior, the Cobra was highly optioned, having been ordered with nearly all factory-available competition items - the sole exception being the Halibrand "kidney-bean" alloy knock-off wheels.
The car was also optioned with bumper guards, wind wings, sun visors, safety belts and other items more commonly found on road-going Shelbys.
