The Superformance MKIII-30th CSX10000
Through an agreement with Carroll Shelby Licensing, these anniversary Shelby edition cars will carry a Shelby CSX10000 number and certificate.
Superformance has distributed complete rolling chassis racecar replicas and continuation Shelby Cobra’s since 1994. Working with specialty car builder Hi-Tech Automotive, Superformance produced and distributed more than 6,000 rolling chassis through independent dealerships worldwide. Each is aesthetically and dimensionally correct, engineered in the image of some of the most iconic classic sports cars of all time. All are built under license from trademark holders including Ford, Shelby, GM and SAFIR GT40, adding authenticity and value.
The Superformance rolling chassis is completely assembled and ready for the buyer to install a drivetrain of their choice. The CSX10000 leverages the Superformance MKIII’s rectangular box frame, heavy duty TIG welded ladder frame chassis with front and rear crumple zones, independent suspension with adjustable coil overs and unequal length A-arms. Wilwood power-assisted front brake calipers and optional power steering are available.
Inside the cockpit, the new car celebrates inscribed custom electronic gauges. The interior is luxuriously upholstered in custom leather and Alcantara with contrasted red double stitching incorporating aluminum rivets in the seats and center console. The Alcantara dash is complimented with red double stitching as well
Superformance will offer 30 of these 30th anniversary MKIII’s to commemorate this milestone; these cars will carry the first series of CSX10000 numbers
