John Canfield Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 This past week Ford tested their newest version of the GT500. Note the plumbing behind the grille, as well as the winglets on the front fenders of the red car. http://www.autoblog.com/photos/ford-mustang-shelby-gt500-spy-shots/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Canfield Posted June 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Interesting that both cars sport what appear to be caps where the fog lights belong. I don't recall the front splitter on the current car being that deep, but I certainly could be mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Hawkins Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 The plumbing behind the Grille looks a lot like a Trans Cooler type Plumbing...............could there be an Automatic coming...........................................? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freak Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 Interesting that both cars sport what appear to be caps where the fog lights belong. I don't recall the front splitter on the current car being that deep, but I certainly could be mistaken. It's tape over the fog lights. Are the lights glass or plastic? I've seen tape used on the headlights of track cars before, presumably to keep the glass relatively contained in a crash. The splitter also looks to be taped. The plumbing behind the Grille looks a lot like a Trans Cooler type Plumbing...............could there be an Automatic coming........................................... Oil cooler maybe?

ItalianStallion Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 The plumbing behid the grill is an eye sore. Mucks up the clean look we are familiar with IS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another link, but this time with a video. Mean sounding... http://www.leftlanenews.com/ford-shelby-gt500-future.html Does sound mean +1, but also looking at the video at the end, I'm guessing the test drivers don't like cameras.

Frank Bailey Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 Thanks for the link... A great read...and something to hang our hats on for future fun. Camero deserves some credit...but they rode the coat-tails of Ford back into the "new" muscle car world...so let the pretenders drive the Chevy...and we'll be the contenders driving the Shelby's. lol Thanks once again to Mr Shelby for setting the bar and defying the critics!
