Comments

Our plan was to build a reasonable facsimile of a 65 Shelby Mustang with performance, appearance, safety, and comfort exceeding those offered by a "real" Shelby.

Story

Bought the car in 1995. Needed extensive rust repair. IT's an absolute BLAST to drive! While an original 65 Shelby would be nice to own, they are rare, prices are high, and how many people would dare to drive it anywhere, anytime? More details at www.gt350clone.com
