This 1965 Shelby Cobra by Backdraft came to us when the owner wanted all the chrome and bright alumunim pieces powdercoated black.     In additon, we installed a killer audtio system so the driver can hear tunes over the Roush 427!  We also performed some paint work on the car after a fender was damaged.
