This extensively restored 1967 Shelby GT500KR re-creation was built
using Shelby-style Maier fiberglass pieces for the front clip,
hood, fender extensions, decklid and taillight panel. A chrome
bumper, Shelby-style stainless-steel-trimmed grille, Lucas driving
lights, Wagner halogen headlights and bullet-style parking lights
were added during the build. The exterior features stainless rocker
and wheel well moldings, a white soft-top, chrome door handles and
side mirror, silver Shelby-style rear valance, chrome GT500 fuel
filler, bumper and trimmed reverse lights, and fenders to re-create
the look of a true Shelby GT500KR. A Robert Pond Motorsports
aluminum side-oiler 427 V8 engine was stroked to 482ci bring this
KR to life and produces 575hp and 573 ft/lbs of torque. The engine
employs two Quickfuel-tuned 750 Holley carburetors, finned air
cleaner, custom COMP Cams hydraulic roller camshaft, SCAT
crankshaft, forged H-beam rods, and JE pistons. It's also outfitted
with Edelbrock Performer ported heads, finned Shelby valve covers,
Sanderson ceramic-coated long tube headers, Griffin aluminum
radiator with electric fans, a custom dual exhaust system with
MagnaFlow mufflers and rear-mounted stainless tips, March
serpentine system, polished power steering pump, polished air
conditioning compressor and a chrome 100-amp alternator. The
transmission was upgraded to a TREMEC TKO600 5-speed manual bolted
to an American Powertrain hydraulic clutch and Quicktime steel
bellhousing. The Heidts 9-inch Traction-Lok rear end has a 9-inch
factory third-member, 3.25 Richmond gears and 31-spline axles.
Helping the ride and stance of the Shelby are tubular control arms,
TCP shock tower brace, 1-inch anti-sway bar with new coilovers, and
a Heidts 4-link suspension that utilizes a Panhard bar and two
additional coilovers. It has welded X subframe connectors and rides
on Vintage Wheel Works V50 wheels with Bridgestone Potenza radial
tires. Stopping power is provided by a 4-wheel Wilwood disc brake
system that clamps 12-inch drilled and slotted rotors through
4-piston calipers. The restored factory vinyl interior features new
black carpet, wood-trimmed and Cobra-branded console with
traditional chrome shifter and Stewart Warner Greenline console
gauges. It also features a wood-rimmed steering wheel on an Ididit
steering column, Shelby wood-trimmed and chrome-detailed door
panels, Shelby 140-mph speedometer and an 8,000-rpm tachometer. The
stereo system features an MP3-compatible Alpine CD player and
amplifier with a 6-speaker sound system and two 12-inch KICKER
subwoofers located in the restored trunk. It also has a GPS locator
and kill switch. This GT500KR was featured in the September 2011
issue of Modified Mustangs & Fords.
