This Superformance MkIII is a Cobra replica that was purchased as a rolling chassis from Hillbank Motorsports in Jupiter, Florida, and subsequently fitted with a Roush Performance 427R V8 and a Tremec five-speed manual transmission. Finished in Porsche Night Blue Metallic over Amarotta leather upholstery, the car is equipped with a driver’s roll hoop, a hood scoop, side-exit exhaust pipes, a wood-rimmed steering wheel, a digital odometer, Wilwood four-wheel disc brakes, and 18″ Halibrand-style wheels. The engine is topped with an Edelbrock Super Victor intake manifold and has been fitted with a Holley Sniper 4150-style electronic fuel injection setup. This Cobra replica is offered now with service records, a tonneau cover, a Holley carburetor, and a clean Florida title in the seller’s name describing the car as a 1965 SUFO.
The Superformance MKIII features fiberglass bodywork over a TIG-welded and reinforced frame constructed with rectangular steel tubing, and this example is finished in Porsche Night Blue Metallic (N5). Additional exterior details include a riveted hood and hood scoop, a polished stainless-steel roll bar and bumperettes, silver-color ceramic-coated side pipes, a Monza-style fuel-filler cap, and “427” fender badges. Paint protection film was applied to the front end and rear fenders.
Halibrand-style 18″ American Racing wheels are secured by three-eared knock-off spinners and are mounted with Nitto NT555 tires measuring 275/35 up front and 335/30 out back. The car rides on four-wheel independent suspension with adjustable coilovers, and braking is handled by power-assisted four-wheel discs with Wilwood calipers.
The cabin features diamond-quilted Amarotta leather on the bucket seats, door pockets, center console, and back panel. Black carpets line the floors, and additional equipment includes power steering, latch-and-link lap belts, covered 12-volt and USB charging outlets, a dashtop-mounted rearview mirror, wind wings, sun visors, a cabin heater, and a rear bulkhead-mounted fire extinguisher. A Carroll Shelby signature adorns the locking glovebox door.
The wood-rimmed steering wheel sits ahead of Superformance instrumentation consisting of a reverse-sweep 180-mph speedometer, an 8k-rpm tachometer, and auxiliary gauges for oil temperature, coolant temperature, voltage, fuel level, and oil pressure. The digital odometer indicates 792 miles have been added since the build was completed.
The 427ci Roush 427R V8 is equipped an Edelbrock Super Victor intake manifold, Roush aluminum cylinder heads, a Roush-branded air filter and valve covers, and a Holley Sniper 4150-style electronic fuel injection system that was installed in November 2024 by Jo’s Garage of Pompano Beach, Florida. The seller reports the exhaust headers are ceramic coated. The removed Holley carburetor is included in the sale.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a Tremec five-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. Additional photos of the underside are provided in the image gallery.
Chassis number SP03805 is shown above, and matches the number listed as the VIN on the current Florida title.
