1966 Shelby Cobra 427 S/C in Aluminum, The Franklin Mint

A sensational collectible depicting the last of the street Cobras.

Carroll Shelby pushed American racing to the limits back in the '50s and '60s, and created what many consider the greatest contribution to the world of speed: The Cobra®, a trail-blazing combination of ultra-lightweight aluminum and flashy Euro styling with a brawny American V-8 engine. Give yourself the opportunity to demonstrate your passion for speed with a spectacular 1:24 scale, precision model of the "street legal" version of the Cobra® -- the 427 S/C™. It's crafted in unpainted aluminum, just like Shelby's® own. And you'll find true-to-life details, like doors, hood and trunk that open and close. Steering wheel that turns the front wheels. Authentic materials used in the seats, like real leather upholstery. A highly detailed engine -- accurate down to the spark plug wires. Even the tread on the tires perfectly matches the original!

 

Generally, you have to choose between joy and power. But when Carroll Shelby introduced the world to the Cobra 427 S/C lightweight roadster in the early 1960's, power and joy turned out to be two sides of the same coin. For the true roadster aficionado, nothing has ever been built to compare to the Cobra. Even to this day, the Shelby® Cobra stands out. This limited production sports car deserves its designation as an automotive classic because it demands your full attention. It looks great; it sounds mean; and it drives like a demon. In fact, it may well be the most powerful, the most attractive, and the most thrilling front-engine roadster ever manufactured for sale to the public.

 

The Shelby® Cobra was born in a flash of insight, became cloaked in clouds of controversy, and remains enshrouded in layers of mystery. To understand the Cobra mystique, you must first start with its creator.

 

Carroll Shelby was a Texan who flew planes, raced cars, and brokered some great automotive ideas. Cobra production began in 1962 and ended in 1967. At first, this thinly disguised road racer featured a 260 V-8 engine (soon expanded to a 289 V-8) inside its sleek European-style body. Shelby® produced 630 of this model. Then, in 1965, this beautiful beast got even more power when the 427 cid V-8 racing engine was added. At some point in production, the 427 was replaced with the 428 Police Interceptor engine: 348 were 427’s and 26 of these were designated S/C for street competition. The S/C was the ultimate Cobra.

2005 Ford Mustang GT, The Franklin Mint

The Mustang legend lives! Harness the power of this all-new performance-built thoroughbred with a sizzling scale replica of the first mainstream Mustang to break into the 300 hp arena. Exact in every detail, right down to the legendary badge and tri-bar tail lamps. The legacy of Mustang continues. Marvel at the precisely detailed engine and fully loaded interior.

 

Ford Motor Company had ambitious plans for the 2005 model year. This year the company launched its broadest lineup of new cars in decades and perhaps even more significantly, its new Mustang. Americans had been in love with the Mustang for 41 years now and the retro version Mustang was eagerly awaited. Although almost all new, the styling was a reprise of the original short deck-long hood combination that started the Pony Car craze of the mid 'sixties. Here was the bodyside scoop, from the '65, the dashboard reminiscent of the 1967, the greenhouse shape from the 1968, and the nose from 1969. In short, the objective was to "...bring back everything that was right about the best Mustangs..." as stated by J Mays, Ford's Group Vice President of Design.

 

The rear-quarter glass was a retro cue that also satisfied a modern functional necessity. The original single side window of the 1967-68 fastbacks looked snazzy but created a long, solid sail panel that shut out light to the rear seat and blocked driver vision. The triangular windows on the 2005 solved those problems while recalling the design of the iconic '66 Shelby® GT 350. Underneath, the new Mustang had its own platform, for the first time not sharing one with an existing Ford product.

 

The new S197, a purpose-built muscle car chassis, was new from the ground up. 2005 also introduced a redesigned suspension, revised power train, state of the art ergonomics and modern safety features. Now it can truly be said that the legacy of the Mustang will continue into the next century. Franklin Mint Precision Models is proud to present the 2005 Ford Mustang GT, an authentic, fully detailed die-cast model.

1966 Shelby Cobra 427 Supersnake - Limited Edition, The Franklin Mint

Carroll Shelby's Ultimate Muscle Car - Yours in a Special Limited Edition

 

Only one Supersnake® remains in existence, and in 2007 it was auctioned off at a dizzying $5.5 million! Now, the rarest of the rare can be yours for much, much less - in a precision-engineered classic as awesome as the real thing. Built by hand from more than 150 separate components, this superb model is crafted with the same passion as the legendary Carroll Shelby® devoted to the original. Every detail is authentic, down to the side-mounted exhausts and the precise re-creation of the powerful Shelby Cobra 427 S/C® engine under the hood. We've even duplicated the world-famous Cobra logo on the hood. Packed with realistic working features, painted and polished by hand, it's ready to roar its way into your collection now!

 

The 1966 Shelby® Cobra 427 SuperSnake® is without a doubt the "Cobra to End All Cobras," as it was described by Road and Track magazine in 1968. Earning the title of "SUPERSNAKE®" after being transformed by Carroll Shelby™ into his own personal dream Cobra. To the already legendary Competition 427 Big Block he added twin Paxton Superchargers, raising the horsepower to 800. He joined this power plant to a Super 3-speed automatic transmission. Skinned with its European-styled, lightweight aluminum Competition body, this Cobra was truly the ultimate Muscle Car.

 

Its history is equally as impressive. CSX 3015 started out as full Competition roadsters without bumpers, mufflers or a windshield, built strictly for the European racing circuit, not public roads. Sometime in early to mid-1967, CSX 3015 was transformed into the SuperSnake® and reclassified as a street-legal 427 Cobra S/C™ (Semi-Competition), while retaining the heart of a full race machine.

 

History shows CSX 3015 to be one of only two SuperSnakes® ever built. The other, CSX 3303, was destroyed when its owner committed suicide by driving the car into the Pacific Ocean, leaving CSX 3015 the only surviving authentic Shelby® SuperSnake®. On January 20th, 2007, CSX 3015 made history again when it sold at Barrett Jackson for a record-breaking 5 million dollars, making this classic one of the most coveted automotive icons ever.

 

Now, the 1966 Shelby® Cobra 427 SuperSnake® is re-created in an extraordinary precision-engineered replica from Franklin Mint Precision Models. Authentic in every detail, the 1966 Shelby® Cobra 427 SuperSnake® Limited Edition is a die-cast model you will treasure for many years to come.

 

Limited Edition of 5,000 worldwide.

 

We all have our dream cars. The legendary Carroll Shelby® is no exception. Back in the late Sixties, he made his dream come true by taking his blatantly awesome CSX 3015 competition roadster - built for the European racing circuit - and increasing its already formidable power with the addition of twin Paxton Superchargers, boosting the horsepower to a near-mythic 800.

 

He didn't stop there. The fitting of a lightweight competition body with decidedly European flair infused alluring beauty to the ferocious beast under the hood. With the further addition of bumpers, mufflers and a windshield, Shelby's® magus opus was classified as a street-legal 427 Cobra S/C® (S/C for Semi-Competition). Only two were ever built, and only one remains selling at auction for a nifty $5,500,000!

 

This is the car re-created for you now by the engineers of Franklin Mint Precision Models. And like the actual Supersnake®, it's a study in pure power and styling that will bring a touch of excitement to any collection.

1970 Ford Mustang Boss 429 - Limited edition, The Franklin Mint

In 1970, you could have taken delivery of a brand-new 1970 Boss 429 for under $6,000. Today, the sky's the limit for these coveted and rare beauties.

Shelby American offered eight color variations in the 427 S/C®s made and in all cases, dealers added racing stripes, often at the customer's request. This car, CSX3042, is regarded by many expert Cobra® collectors as one of the last 427 S/C®s sold, since it remained on the original dealer MSO into the 1970s before being sold to a private buyer.

Today, this is the classic 427 S/C® against which all others are measured.

2008 Mustang BULLITT GT - STEVE MCQUEEN Commemorative Edition, Limited Edition, The Franklin Mint

A Tribute to the King of Cool 

It's a car STEVE McQUEEN would have been proud of. Celebrating 40 years since Lieutenant Frank Bullitt took us for the ride of our lives. Ford Motor company issued a special anniversary edition Ford Mustang carrying the same aggressive looks of the famous '68 GT that roared through the streets of San Francisco chasing two hit-men in a "Tuxedo Black" 1968 Dodge Charger R/T 440 Magnum. Now, this incredible tribute car can be yours in a fantastic precision scale die-cast replica issued in a strictly Limited Edition of just 5,000 pieces worldwide.

 

Your precision-engineered model matches every spectacular detail of the actual 2008 Ford Mustang BULLITT. The interior has been faithfully re-created, down to the fully instrumented dash and Black Charcoal upholstery. Naturally, the awesome 315hp has been replicated with uncompromising attention to the smallest detail. We have even re-created the BULLITT gun-sight graphic on the fuel cap, an enduring tribute to the motion picture that ignited a legend!

 

No question: The Big Screen has seen its share of great chase scenes through the years.

 

No question: The car chase is the perfect "vehicle" for the white-knuckle excitement of a high-speed pursuit, especially through crowded city streets.

 

No question: The chase scene from the 1968 Steve McQueen classic BULLITT set the standard against which all others are measured--the undisputed champ--the definitive masterpiece.

 

No contest! To mark the 40th anniversary of BULLITT and of the car chase to end all car chases, Ford Motor Company unveiled a special Limited Edition Mustang BULLITT, combining the breakneck spirit of the movie with the latest technology derived primarily--and not surprisingly--from Ford race cars.

 

Faithful to the original model driven by McQueen in the motion picture, Ford designers stripped virtually all badges and insignia from the '08 anniversary model. In absentia: the iconic chrome pony typically displayed on the mesh grille, as well as all scoops and spoilers traditionally identified with Mustang styling. Completing the picture--the same Highland Green paint job used on the original '68 BULLITT.

 

The 2008 Ford Mustang BULLITT packs a wallop under the hood in the form of a potent 4.6 V-8 engine generating 315hp @ 6,000 rpm. Ford engineers transplanted the live rear axle system from the Shelby GT-500-- to add even more punch during acceleration. BULLITT owners were advised by Ford to burn premium fuel; however, an innovative spark ignition permits the use of regular with no fear of damaging the engine.

1933 Ford Deluxe Tudor Police Car w/Trailer - Limited edition , Franklin Mint

Calling all Cars. Calling all Cars.

 

Your ticket to police excitement can be heard through the roar of the siren as this 1933 Ford Tudor police car races through Chicago in pursuit of mob bosses and scofflaws. Feel the gangster danger, the ratt-a-tatt of the Tommy Gun and the sound of victory as the long arm of the law prevails and calm is restored. Your 1933 Ford Tudor police car comes complete with a loaded service trailer with period-correct accessories and vintage signage.

 

In the 1930s, the police had a formidable job. Due in part to Prohibition, organized crime was rampant in many U.S. cities. Chicago was the home or operating base for much of this illegal activity. The Chicago police had to contend with the mob syndicate and infamous personalities like Al Capone and John Dillinger, who operated illegal liquor stills and breweries. Daily bank robberies were not unusual.

 

Police raids were commonplace and many times the mob was better armed than the good guys. One key element toward the success of the police back then - and today - was their vehicles. The police had to "fight fire with fire." They needed a chase car that was, at the very least, as fast and reliable as the mobsters' cars. Since the 1933 Ford Deluxe V-8 was the get-away car of choice for many crime bosses, law enforcement incorporated the same vehicle into their stable. Among the fans of the Ford was 1933 "Public Enemy Number One," John Dillinger. He once wrote Henry Ford an unsolicited testimonial, praising the performance and styling of his own "hot" '33 Deluxe. As such, there was no better police chase vehicle than the 1933 Ford Deluxe V-8. The thick steel on the doors served to slow the barrage of bullets from ensuing machine gun battles, the 221 cubic inch V-8 engine with aluminum heads gave the needed horsepower to carry reinforcements and ammunition to the scene. With a top speed of 78 mph, the ’33 Ford Deluxe V-8 police cars leveled the playing field.

 

The Franklin Mint is pleased to offer this 1:24 scale die-cast tribute to the law enforcement vehicle of times past. Our Chicago "mob squad" automobile comes fully equipped to handle the most ruthless of gangsters and mob bosses. Not only does it faithfully replicate the most coveted crime-fighting cruiser of the day, it also comes with a fully stocked arsenal in tow with the era-correct police trailer.

1968 Mustang GT Fastback - Limited edition, The Franklin Mint

In 1968, Ford continued with the restyled, larger and heavier, higher Mustang platform that was introduced in the previous model year. With the horsepower war raging, Ford was forced to up the ante, using its existing big blocks in the new ’67 — ’68 offering. To accommodate the dimensionally larger engine, the body had to be widened 21/2 inches, resulting in a 2" wider front and rear track. This not only gave the car more sure-footed handling, but added to its already menacing stance.

 

For the ’68 model year, Mustang received a mild facelift. The most notable change was the deletion of the ’67 simulated vents in front of the rear wheels, replaced with a cleaner-looking vertical chrome trim bar integrated into the side C-scoop. Adding the sleek, profiled fastback body option made for the perfect blend of aggressive and elegant design. The 390 engine would be basically the same as ’67 with a new name, GT390, and a token 5 additional horsepower. While some pony car enthusiasts complained about the larger chassis and body, Ford answered the nay-sayers with higher ’68 Mustang production numbers than comparable ponies like Camaro, GTO and Barracuda.

 

The Franklin Mint is proud to offer its 1:24 scale tribute to the 1968 Mustang GT Fastback — with all the unique features of the original, including a fully detailed GT390 engine and sizzling Sixties-style interior.
