1967 Shelby Cobra 427 CSX3299. This project we fully restored the entire interior to appear as original including wear and tear to preserve the originality of this car. The seats were torn badly the carpets badly un-bonded from the aluminum floor pans and the foam throughout was deteriorated beyond repair. We expertly distressed black leather to replicate the wrinkles and patina finish before we repaired the seats and foam throughout. The carpets were expertly fixed after consulting with original assembly line worker and Cobra Restoration expert Michael Mcklusky. The original convertible top frame was restored along with the intricate side windows and vinyl top. We then wrapped up this project by matching the original Guardsman blue metallic paint to do some repairs to the doors and other areas without repainting the entire body.
