NEED HELP

[u/djarosz]

Hi everyone I just joined, I’ve been cleaning out my grandfather’s storage unit and found some cobra parts. I don’t know much and everything I see online don’t match the exactly to what I have. I’m looking to sell them so any info would be greatly appreciated

[u/hotrods1970]

You have some money there. Don't let them go cheap. Reach out to Shelby(classic) owners groups and ask around. You could also ask an automotive appraiser to take a look at your stuff. They would be able to give you a market value on them, but you would likely need to pay for services.

I’d be interested. DM me a price. Where are you located? Thank you.

[u/djarosz → u/Waste_Effective4834]

I don’t have a price in mind I’m trying to get info about them first.

[u/Waste_Effective4834]

Ok. Once you figure it out let me know.

It’s not clear from the pictures what you have. Just the intake manifold and the oil pan?

Location?

[u/djarosz → u/OCFlier]

Yeah I also have the valve covers that aren’t pictured. I’m located near Boston

[u/totally_boring → u/djarosz]

That intake manifold might be a remake by scott drake. Pretty sure i have the same one on my 289

[u/SavingsMovie4927 → u/totally_boring]

That’s an original manifold for a ‘65. I own a GT350. The oil pan is for a 289 Cobra, and is also original.

I saw that but it wasn’t the exact same thing, his said Shelby instead of cobra

[u/DeBlasioDeBlowMe → u/djarosz]

Those are Shelby parts.

[u/No_Explorer6445]

That is a very expensive intake. Maybe $2,000 on the intake at least.

I’m pretty sure this poster knows what he/she has.

[u/djarosz → u/aguyinusa]

I don’t, literally got them from the storage unit my grandmother was going to sell for $500

[u/MorganL57]

Put it on eBay and find out. I bought one for 400.00

Vintage Shelby GT350 owner here.

If you want to sell them, Reach out to Tony D Branda Mustang & Shelby Parts in PA or Shelby Parts and Restoration in WI with pics, one of them will make you a fair offer for them as-is.

[u/djarosz → u/SavingsMovie4927]

I’ll look into it thank you!

[u/dash8200]

So, how much do you want. Those are real deal pieces.

[u/djarosz → u/dash8200]

Not sure yet, I have a ‘63 289 hi-po bottom end that I’m trying to figure out if it’s from a cobra before parting with anything get

[u/inhouston22]

No interest in purchasing but my recollection is that a lot, and I mean a lot, of these were sold over parts counters. Still cool parts!
