From Broad Arrow Auctions: "As one of the only original prototypes extant, CSX 2003 was completed at Ed Hugus’ European Cars dealership in Pittsburgh as the fourth Shelby Cobra ever built. In early 1962, Hugus’ best mechanics began installing the high-performance Ford 260 cu-in V8 HP experimental engines and Borg Warner four-speed transmissions into the AC aluminum British bodies, completing the very first Shelby Cobras for sale, including CSX 2001, the first production Cobra, and CSX 2003 through CSX 2007. This early effort was crucial to the Cobra’s success: it bought Shelby enough time to secure Ford’s official backing and set the stage for Shelby American’s later triumphs on road and track.

CSX 2003 is one of the only prototype examples, in its original, untouched form, known to exist today. Alongside CSX 2004, Ford’s Special Vehicles Team in Dearborn evaluated the Cobra as a prerequisite to signing any formal agreement with Shelby. Company engineers—including Henry Ford II himself—inspected and drove CSX 2003 during this period, examining its design and capabilities first-hand.

It was after this important testing period that the car was shipped to its first private owner, George Reed of Reed’s Racing Rats Motors in Homewood, Illinois. In Reed’s ownership, CSX 2003 was shown at the 12 Hours of Sebring in 1963. Sometime after this appearance, the car entered a short chain of private owners from 1969 until 1989, when it met Mr. Richard “Doc” McAdam of Virginia, who would become its loving caretaker for the next 36 years."

The car was sold at the Monterey Jet Auction for $1.4 Million in August of 2025.
