Vehicle History

This 1966 Shelby Cobra Replica is a custom-built Roadster created for drivers who want the classic Cobra look with considerably more room and modernized performance. Built in 2008 using a Street Beast body, “Venomis” features an 8-inch stretched chassis designed to provide additional cockpit space for taller drivers. Gold Pearl Metallic paint, White racing stripes, deep-dish chrome wheels and chrome side pipes give it an aggressive appearance, while the 427ci Ford V8 and AOD Automatic transmission provide the power to match.

Maintenance & Vehicle History
“Venomis” was built in 2008 and has accumulated 3,220 miles since being built. The seller describes it as a Street Beast-based 1966 Shelby Cobra Replica and reports that the 427ci V8 produces approximately 600 horsepower. The car was specifically stretched 8 inches to provide additional cockpit space, making it better suited to taller drivers than a standard-length replica. The interior features the digital dash, modern stereo, security safe and trunk-mounted television/DVD system. This un-subtle Cobra is located in Palmetto, Florida.

❤️ From the Seller
“If subtle isn't your style, meet "Venomis" - a one-of-a-kind 1966 Shelby Cobra Replica that combines brutal performance, head-turning show-car presence, and custom craftsmanship unlike anything else on the road. Built in 2008 using a Street Beast body, Venomis features a unique 8-inch stretched chassis design, providing significantly improved cockpit space and comfort for taller drivers while retaining the unmistakable Cobra silhouette. Finished in stunning Gold Pearl Metallic paint accented by classic White racing stripes, this Cobra commands attention from every angle. The aggressive stance is enhanced by 17-inch offset deep-dish chrome wheels, gleaming chrome side pipes, and a suspension setup that gives the car an unmistakably muscular road presence. Open the door and you'll discover an interior that is every bit as wild as the exterior. Occupants are secured in Corbeau racing bucket seats equipped with 4-point harnesses, while custom snake-themed details throughout the cabin reinforce the car's "Venomis" persona. Genuine snakeskin accents are incorporated throughout the interior, including unique snake head displays complete with ruby-red eyes. Modern conveniences include a digital gauge display, B&M ratchet shifter topped with a Cobra-head shift knob, and an MP3 stereo system with Sony Xplod speakers. Built with the car show enthusiast in mind, Venomis also features a custom-installed security safe for storing valuables and a 17-inch DVD/TV entertainment system mounted in the trunk, making it the perfect centerpiece for cruise-ins, car shows, and automotive events. Under the hood lies the heart of the beast—a Ford small-block V8 stroked to 427 cubic inches, breathing through dual four-barrel carburetors and producing an astounding 600 horsepower. Power is delivered through a professionally built Ford AOD automatic transmission equipped with a 2,800 RPM stall converter, making this Cobra equally comfortable cruising Main Street or unleashing serious acceleration. The drivetrain is completed with a DTS Detroit Tru-Lock rear end, ensuring that all 600 horses make their way to the pavement. Handling and ride quality are managed by QA1 12-way adjustable coilovers at all four corners, allowing the suspension to be tuned for cruising, carving corners, or show-day stance. Mustang power steering makes Venomis surprisingly easy to drive and maneuver despite its immense performance capabilities. Combining show-winning looks, thoughtful custom touches, and serious big-block-inspired performance, Venomis is far more than a Cobra replica—it's a fully realized custom creation built to stand apart from the crowd. Whether you're looking for a weekend cruiser, a car-show superstar, or a conversation piece that delivers genuine muscle-car performance, this unforgettable Cobra checks every box.”
 
"We're ready to go for a rip in this 66 Shelby Cocoa Replica. Street Beast. A 427 and an automatic. As you can see, as I just shifted it into drive, 3,200 miles since being built. Think's pretty badass.  Got a digital dash. Not sure you can see it. Modern stereo. Got a safe behind the seats. You can see in our pictures. Even got a TV in the trunk built in. It's quite the hot rod. Got a name. Venomis. 1966 Shelby Cobra replica. Really nice custom Shelby."

🧠 Did you know?
The 1966 Shelby Cobra was one of the defining years of the big-block Cobra, combining AC Cars’ lightweight British chassis and body with Ford’s enormous V8 power. The Mk III Cobra used coil-spring independent suspension rather than the leaf-spring setup of earlier 289 Cobras, while the standard big-block was the 427-cubic-inch Ford side-oiler V8. Shelby also built a number of road cars with the less-expensive 428 Police Interceptor V8, but these cars were still sold as 427 Cobras. The 427 was available in both street and competition configurations, with the 427 S/C receiving more aggressive competition-oriented equipment; only 31 S/C Cobras were produced. The combination of a lightweight chassis and big-block power made the Cobra extraordinarily quick for its day and established it as one of the most famous American performance cars of the 1960s.
