This is a 1:12 scale diecast model of the 1963 Shelby 289 Competition Cobra, made by ACME under the GMP line. It is finished as car #11, driven by John Everly at the 1963 Nassau, Bahamas Speed Week.
The hood, trunk and doors open. The trunk hinges in the "down" position, as on the real car. The gas filler cap also opens. The model has detailed engine, suspension and chassis work.
Inside, the instruments are replicated and the shifter moves. The seats are stitched and soft to the touch, and the car has cloth seatbelts. The racing wheels are replicated, with removable miniature knock-offs like those on the real Cobras. A special tool is included for removing and replacing the wheels.
