EL SHELBY Posted May 5, 2011 Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 I'm pretty sure the GT500CR qualifies for the registry, so it's as real a Shelby as any new continuation Shelby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWG223 Posted May 6, 2011 Report Share Posted May 6, 2011 Very nice! I hope they are on the up and up unlike that place in Dallas that the feds shut down a while back, though. They were publishing similar pictures/concepts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were publishing similar pictures/concepts. I think you're talking about Unique Performance. This company, Classic Creations, seems to have all the legal stuff handled. I will admit, however, that past company does hurt the reputations of Shelby continuation builders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Came back with pictures and tales of glory. Shortly after, the feds shut it down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EL SHELBY Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 The State of Oklahoma actually shut down this shop for a few weeks last year on a bogus charge that they were doing the same thing as Unique Performance. In the end Classic was prooven to be in the right. Now Classic is working closely with Oklahoma law makers to rewrite the law and eliminate the confusion on what and how much of a car can be replaced before it's no longer the original car.

car dude Posted May 8, 2011 Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 would love to have one all black.Shelby should do some thing with the new 67 fastback body from dicron.You could have a completely new 67 shelby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean Dynacorn? Their unibodies look amazing. I definitely woiuld consider a 1967 GT500 recreation. SAI could call it the GT500CS. They could option the car with a big block with or without fuel injection too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QUIKSVT Posted May 8, 2011 Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 Wow...fantastic car. I thought the supercharger ducting was interesting as it must run below the motor and up through the driver fenderwell? Great car for sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burning Blue Star IV Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 Eh...I just don't care for that car. Just not my style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedyman Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 Cool car for sure. Personally I'd rather take a KR at current prices and do a TVS with suspension beef-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweenstang Posted May 12, 2011 Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 Eh...I just don't care for that car. Just not my style. Well, it is the history that put the current Shelby mustang on the map. The styling is different, but I think still very cool. However, if we're looking at the downsides of this very expensive toy, one thing that bugs me is the interior has every blessed thing stamped or signed with the Shelby name. Seems too "in-your-face" to me. Total overkill. A few tasteful places would be a lot nicer, don't you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
