Vehicle Description
Lot #398 - #18 of 100 ever built, this 2008 Shelby Mustang GT
Barrett-Jackson Edition is an exceptional car that packs a 319hp
punch underneath its special unique color combination. The Shelby
GT Barrett-Jackson cars were not only created to help Carroll
Shelby's charity, but they received an exclusive black with full
red stripe package to match Barrett Jackson’s color scheme. Even
the Bullitt-style 18” wheels were blacked out. Ford's 4.6-liter V8
engine was given some nice upgrades for duty in the Shelby GT,
including a cold-air induction system and the Ford Racing Power
Upgrade Package, which increases output to 319hp and 330 ft/lbs. of
torque. Underneath there's an X-pipe exhaust system that gives the
Shelby a distinctive sound. This car features Ford's Racing
Handling Pack, which includes specially tuned shocks and struts,
lowering springs, oversized sway bars and a 3.55 limited-slip rear
end. The Shelby GT package added a deeper front air dam, a special
billet grille with offset Mustang emblem, hood pins and a hood
scoop. Out back are the big Shelby block letters as well as a
diffuser panel under the bumper and twin exhaust tips that shine
brightly. The interior is well presented with black leather and, as
a registered Shelby, there is a signed and numbered plaque on the
dash, as well as a short-throw Hurst shifter for the 5-speed manual
transmission. The equipment list includes a Shaker 1000 sound
system, air conditioning, cruise control, power windows, power
locks, keyless entry, dual front airbags, side airbags and power
driver's seat. This well-kept car has 14,000 actual miles on it and
has never been altered. CARFAX shows manufacturer safety recall
opened on and 01/12/2017: Passenger airbag inflator replacement.
