When you take a nicely finished 1966 Ford Mustang convertible and
upgrade it to a Shelby GT350 tribute, the result is something
special. So look over the shining paint, vibrant interior, ideal
Shelby pieces, and all the other details of this well-coordinated
and well-presented drop-top classic.
Blue and white are America's racing colors, and Carroll Shelby
brought the world championship home to the USA. So if you're going
to pay tribute to Shelby's best, this color theme is the exact
right place to start. The Guardsman Blue went on with care, and the
white stripes were paint on top of the car. And since this is a
convertible, you'll love that it has a modern clearcoat luster that
looks terrific in the sunshine. To be a proper GT350 tribute, you
need to get the details right. So the iconic rocker stripe decals
are done in a coordinating white. Plus, the hood scoop, faux side
intakes, and dual exhaust poking through the rear valance really
adds to the sporty style. While the wraparound chrome bumpers are
quite nice, the brightwork you'll love the most is the shine from
the polished section of the correct-style 10-spoke Shelby
alloys.
The cream white convertible top look good against this color theme,
but for true distinction, you'll really love opening this one up to
the world. That's because the full blue and white theme continues
inside. But where the exterior is built for a vintage competition
appearance, the interior also has classic comfort. You know this
the moment you open the door and lay eyes on the premium "Pony"
package bucket seats. The white here goes nicely with the door
panels, lower dash, and convertible boot. Plush blue carpeting and
a smooth blue dash pad complete a handsome two-tone presentation.
And because this is built to be a true Shelby tribute, you get a
classic wood and chrome sports steering wheel with Shelby
American's logo right in the center.
Under the hood is 289 cubic-inch motor that's dressed to impress
the Shelby crowd. It has a tidy look so that you get a good view of
the Cobra air cleaner and Cobra valve covers taking center stage on
top of the V8's block. This motor fires up nicely and idles
smoothly. It's built to give you a good feel for the road, and
there are also some nice cruising features like the three-speed
automatic transmission and the upgraded 17-inch wheels that allow
for fitting proper modern performance tires.
This is a great-looking Shelby tribute that lets you enjoy top-down
fun. So don't let this opportunity pass you by. Call now!
