Carroll Shelby Foundation

Would you like to have a Shelby Cobra into your garage but your budget is a bit short? If the answer is "yes," then we have the perfect solution for you! We are auctioning a one-off limited Edition 427 Shelby Cobra Ride On Sports Car by Kid Motorz. It has the upgraded 12 volt motor, special edition navy blue metallic pearl paint, white Cobra racing stripes and Carroll Shelby's "98" racing number on the side. While the electric motor is a little less powerful than the V8 in a ...full size Cobra, the car was designed with nice authentic touches. Details include side exhaust pipes, a roll bar and chrome wheels. The Cobra has reverse, low and high gears and travels at speeds of up to 5 mph. CSF Managing Director Rafella Golden customized this one with a special plate and other graphics. It is truly a one-of-one Cobra! Please do not post or email her and send your bid by 12 noon PST on Wed, Jan. 20. The winning bid will be announced on Thurs., Jan. 22. Bids start at $427 for this rare model. IM your bid to Rafella via this FB page. Your winning bid will help fund many important initiatives that help kids have a full life! This Shelby Cobra is 51.50" x 26.77" x 20.47" and weighs about 39 pounds. Because of its size, CSF must limit the auction to the geographic United States. The winning bid will NOT include shipping, which the charity will estimate for the auction winner. The photo of the young man in the Cobra below was provided by Team Shelby Director Joey Tetzloff and is included to show the size of the car; please note it is stock. The other images are of the actual Cobra that Rafella customized.
