In the market for one of the most coveted collector cars on the planet?  Then book travel plans for Vegas the second weekend of October.

Barrett-Jackson made a stunning addition today to its Las Vegas auction lineup with a rare, low mileage 1965 289 Shelby Cobra.  The car will be sold at No Reserve on Oct. 10 during Barrett-Jackson’s 2nd annual Vegas event at Mandalay Bay.

Here’s what Craig had to say about the Cobra:

“Shelby American’s Cobras captured the world’s attention and this nation’s imagination when they conquered Ferrari, Jaguar, Porsche and Aston Martin,” said Barrett-Jackson Chairman/CEO, Craig Jackson.  “With such a small number built in the 1960s, few will have the privilege to own one of these iconic cars.  Because we’ve sold some of the most desirable Cobras ever to roll out of Shelby American, like Carroll Shelby’s personal Super Snake, people who are serious about these roadsters come to Barrett-Jackson.   They know it’s the best opportunity for a ‘no stories’ Cobra to exchange hands with real buyers at true market value.”
