Paul Walker's Continuation Car Shelby Cobra 427 will soon be from Mecum Auctions (Glendale) auctioned as one of the few American cars from the extensive collection of the late actor and "Fast and Furious" star. Specifically, this vehicle is a so-called continuation model that was built by Shelby American in the AC body in the 1990s. The serial number is CSX1010, making the Cobra one of 14 vehicles in the “FAM” series (CSX1000 series). FAM stands for "Ferrari's Ass is Mine". The vehicle is the Cobra from 1965 modeled on and has many modern improvements to the chassis to reduce the bitchy driving behavior. There is also a Five-speed manual transmission (Tremec TKO600) and a 427-cubic-inch aluminum V8 with 550 hp tinkers under the hood.
