67 Shelby GT500 (Eleanor)

It's a "Shelby Continuation Car" meaning not a real classic. They started making them again recently. And it seems like that guy is asking waaaay too much because there are real GT500's going for less than half that. The GT500E might be updated with modern parts and all, but I'd still much rather have the real thing. Although I think I'd still be pretty happy having either one!
 
Only $3600 a month for 72 months. Wow


Pretty cool car. I think it would probably be worth that. I know that Carrol doesn't give them away, so it had to be pretty costly new.

Way too much money for a replica. Carrol Shelby will sign anyones car. He has been at several NorCal Shelby club meets. Nearly everyone around here has his signature on their glove box door. A friend of mine builds mustangs, He could build you one for about 1/3 that price and still make good money off the car.
 
There is a new company making the Elanor replica, with a high po motor and complete with nitrous, and a new suspension.


Unique performance is making the cars.

YIKES!

It's nice, but not THAT nice. I think I'll spend my 220,000 elsewhere. Oops I thought that said 2,200, looks like I'm back to a rusty 82 mustang if I wanna buy, oh well :rolleyes: The funny part is the ad says somebody accidentally pressed the buy it now button. What they accidentally pressed the confirm button too?
 
it is only 159, 000 for the best one, straight from the company building them

or 90,000 for the cheapest

i guantee you that you could build the car from gone in 60 seconds for less than 30k, granted it wouldnt be a shelby gt500 but who in their right mind would butcher up a shelby just to do that stuff too. start with a fastback and a 347 stroker with nitrous and your just about there. get a bodykit from a certain website for like 5k and you've got the movie car. i read an article about it once, it wasnt anything too special really. but a damn nice car anyway.
 
The only problem is an original is a garage queen whil ethis one is an all out performance vehicle,,Its for people that have the money and really wouldnt say..Can I afford one
