CSX 3011...was the first of the production 427 Competition Cars that wasn’t pre-sold to a customer. An internal Shelby American memo listed 3011 as a “Shelby/Salvadori” car to be tested and then sent to the “show car” department for storage. Early in 1966, three 427 Cobras, including this car, were rented to MGM Studios for use in an Elvis Presley movie which was released as “Spinout.”...From there the car traveled to Mexico where it was owned and raced by hall of fame racer, Moises Solana.
