Chopper Chopper description

This incredible custom Shelby Cobra tribute chopper was done by Zacky's Custom Rods in Seattle, WA.  The painstaking design process included sending the plans to Carroll Shelby to get his blessing before the build started, and upon giving the nod, Shelby told builder Keith Wong to be sure to, "Make it Fast, and make it cool".  Mission accomplished.  The bike is finished in iconic Guardsman Blue with white LeMans stripes and like the Cobra, it is dominated by a big, bad American motor, in this case a 160hp and 175 ft/lb 140cid Ultima twin.  Styling touches include custom CNC-machined wheels that mimic Halibrand knock-off mags, a hood scoop on the tank, a custom tuck and roll seat that perfectly apes the Cobra buckets, wood inlaid grips and controls inspired by the Cobra's wood steering wheel and shift knob.  It has Ford Blue engine cases and cylinders, powder coated headers and half-scale Cobra side pipe.  There is a Cobra badge on the crank case and so much more the harder you look.  The bike is featured in an issue of V-Twin magazine, as well as in their 100 Coolest Custom Bikes calendar.  There is a binder that comes with this auction that has the photos of the bike through the build process, as well as a picture and certificate of authenticity of Carroll Shelby himself signing the tank.  These signed Carroll Shelby pieces with only be worth more as time goes on with his passing.  Also included is the original hand drawn scetch of the bike, drawn by Keith Wong, the bike builder.  Please E-Mail or call with questions at 229-740-2277
