Just Curious What All Of The Members Are Going To Call This

[freakshow12]

If it were mine I would put ALL the 67 shelby parts on the body too

[Torched10]

Was just thinking to really pop you could add a stripe color to the seats I see they're black. My bad if you like black

[George Hill Jr]

I love this meeting of two generations! With you using the interior of the GT 500 which will look great. How about Cobra Snake 500 -- CS-500 with Stripes!! I think Carroll would have liked that.

[Doug_GT350]

Left side front frame was totaled. The insurance agreed and that was that. Managed to get the vehicle and decided to do something I have wanted for a long time. A nice Sunday driver.

Gotcha! Again I will say I wish I ability to do something like that... what a freakin' blast!

[Slabo]

I have been following this build on The Mustang Shops Facebook page. Very cool!

[Helix]

It will indeed be a Frankenstang but ooooh the power! This sounds awesome.

[Boris Bogdanich]

Im sure Mr. Shelby would love it. Nice Work. Good Save.

[Secondo]

Nice job on the car! Although I'm disappointed the original car wasn't saved.

[mark.barton]

Outstanding! IMHO call the car anything you want, I just call it f***ing cool.

Of the two GT 500's I own one was totaled, rather than scrap it I decided to re-body it with a classic 67 coupe that I have owned for many years, retaining all of the GT 500 components, drive train, engine, transmission, interior, etc.. I have looked at a lot of threads and read quite a few of the negative comments posted tribute Shelby's and wonder how this would be accepted. I am considering branding it Shelby, GT 662.

 

This was the beginning.

If this is the one Scott has been posting from the Mustang Shop....I give two thumbs up!

 

Motor on, and keep the updates coming!

RMR or was it Bonneville at the time. I'm thinking Bonneville, it sounds kind of familiar.

Spent some time on the salt as well.

The blower won't clear the stock hood so I am going to use 68 Shelby hood and front end component's.

My other 2104 GT 500 is Black with low gloss black stripes and with black non accent Recaro's.

 

I have been following this build on The Mustang Shops Facebook page. Very cool!

 

They have a Facebook page on the build.

Because it was a buyback from the insurance with a salvage title, even after the rebuild the value of the car would never be recoverable, besides it's always nice to be the owner of a 1of 1

 

 

 

This is the one waiting for company.

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks to all who have taken time to comment, keep them coming.

One and the same.

That will be one cool ride when completed.

there's a lot of 1 of 1's on Ebay.... I see them all the time.... difference is this one will be worth the price!

[BIKEBOY]

Stop over analyzing the "name".......IMHO , look no further than your sig.

 

 

 

 

 

67 SNAKE

 

 

Done!

[BIKEBOY]

Car looks freekin' sweet. Very creative.

 

Well played!

[67 Snake]

Mine really is a 1 of 1 ?

The 68 parts on this will look awesome. Great buid

[AlaskanKR]

I think it's great.

 

A buddy of mine put a 08 GT500 engine in his 67 last year. It's a beast.

 

Anyone who gives you negative feedback is just jealous.

 

Can't wait to see the end product.

 

AK.

[67 Snake]

Time for some updates, Engine, Transmission and Brake & Clutch Fitting

Heater and Air Conditioner

Dash an Center Consul

Engine and Fender Mounts

Watts Link

Once all of the trial fitting is complete the final assembly can be completed.

[67 Snake]

I will be posting another set of updates later this week, lots of new progress.

Don't retain the stock rear axle upper control arm. Put a Torque Arm on the car and enjoy the extra traction.

The three point with the Watts Link I am sure will be do well with the car, don't anticipate lots of flat out racing just some.

 

[67 Snake]

Trial Fit on the interior

The drive line fits with a small amount if shim

It worked out great

Page one of the puzzle
