Overview

1962 Shelby 289 Cobra "Slab Side"

Superformance SPS0097 is a “slab-side” MKII delivered brand new as a rolling chassis on MSO.

Finished in traditional British Racing Green on a hand‑laminated fiberglass body features reinforced inserts and the clean MKII street profile for an authentically British silhouette. True to the originals, it wears period-correct details including original‑style indicator lenses, headlights, a chrome‑over‑brass handcrafted windshield frame, and authentic‑style wipers. The car rides on classic 15-inch wire wheels in your choice of chrome of black with radial tires for the proper stance and road feel.

Inside, the cockpit features deep black leather, including fixed‑back bucket seats, and matching door panels. A wood‑rimmed steering wheel and a leather‑wrapped dash fitted with Stewart Warner instrumentation, preserving the timeless MKII aesthetic.

Chassis and dynamics are pure Superformance: an original John Tojeiro–inspired design built on a 3-inch heavy‑duty TIG‑welded ladder frame with crossmembers and crumple zones. Precision rack‑and‑pinion steering keeps inputs direct, while the fully independent front and rear transverse leaf spring suspension is paired with Bilstein custom‑crafted shocks. Stopping power comes from Wilwood vented disc brakes.

As a rolling chassis, SPS0097 is ready for your powertrain of choice, allowing you to tailor the driveline to your exact performance and character preferences.

The Superformance MKII Street 289 is a meticulously engineered and licensed continuation, built under license from Carroll Shelby Licensing Inc., delivering an authentic classic sports car experience with modern craftsmanship.

SPS0097 is available on MSO for $110,150.
