DubbsFaris Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Asking build information from Shelby is kind of like asking how many licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie pop... ....the world may never know.... Saving it for the book, right Steve? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Canfield Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 I spoke to someone who had one at Carlisle two years ago and it certainly wasn't many! He said 7. Here's a photo from there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffJ Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 I'm pretty sure that the color was what Henry used to say about the T, you can have any color you want, as long as it's black! I have a 1:18 diecast of a silver one, but I don't think that one was ever made? The one I saw in Sturgis a couple years ago was licensed, I'm pretty sure that they were all still street legal fine?

twobjshelbys Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 I asked them to walk on that way as the car was coming onto the block and then went down to the other end and snapped a few as they paced the car to its resting point.

That's what I thought too but apparently at least one was Silver??? I wonder if the Silver one is a special Ed, or a clone, or something like that... There used to be a guy here on TS forums that had one. It's the one Kali_KR posted the vid of, who had it at the Bash. I haven't seen him around in ages though. There was one in the Warehouse across the lot from the SA Musuem back when I was looking at getting my 2010 Snaked and it wasn't sold, wrapped in plastic so probably the #1 or P car.

lester Quam Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 That was my Prudhomme car on display at Gaudin the owner does not have one. It's my understanding 7 were built.

Gerry Chase 1128 Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 I am under the impression they were all street legal. I believe they came with a complete set of tires for drag racing (bigs and littles)and then also had Alcoas for the street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either slicks/drag wheels or Alcoa's. But not both (perhaps you could opt to pay $$$ for the other?) Phill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelbymotorsports Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 Prudhomme Shelby's with 800hp tune were not street legal. Cars came with slicks but customers could opt for street tires, do not recall if there was a charge for that. Pretty sure Alcoa's were not offered on the Prudhomme cars.

lester Quam Posted August 27, 2013 Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 The extra set of wheels were an option I forgot how much? I bought both sets for my car. Back in 2009 the drag car left the Shelby factory at 725 HP. They just finished making my 2007 GT 500 a SS wide body with street legal 900 HP and installed their hole shot package. This car is beyond amazing best Shelby yet that i have driven by a wide margin makes my 2012 800 HP SS feel slow. I am planning on doing the 900 HP hole shot package to the drag car next year. The whole wide body package along with the extra HP and traction mods wow it's just off the charts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lester Quam Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Hole shot package is a suspension upgrade installed at the speed shop. When I had the wide body package added to the SS package along with the 900 HP engine mod they also installed suspension mods for traction they call a hole shot package. Really works the whole package is best Shelby yet for me. The guys at the mod shop were great to work with, this was my first trip to the mod shop I was very impressed and really think this snake is best yet for me. The only down side is my other Shelby's feel slow and traction impaired now. LOL the lumpy cams in the 900 HP upgrade feel and sound like an old muscle car.
