Overview
After Shelby American won the 1966 24 hours of Le Mans with the big block GT40, Shelby went to work building a special version of the 1967 model year Ford Mustang. The new Shelby GT500 included a 427 FE Le Mans inspired big block Ford V8 in an all new Mustang chassis. And for the first time, a convertible version of the car was made available through dealerships next to the fastback version.
The Continuation 1967-1968 model Shelby GT500 is a tribute to this amazing muscle car. Available as a convertible or fastback in either a restomod with contemporary amenities or original style version, the heritage Shelby GT500 captures the spirit of the groundbreaking cars built during the 1960s.
The Continuation Series Shelby GT500 Super Snakes are built from original 1967-1968 Mustangs, with factory VINs and original titles. The donor cars are stripped to bare metal for transformation into the mighty Shelby Super Snake. Customers can opt for an original donor period Shelby fastback for transformation at additional cost.
Just like 1967, a race-inspired FE big block V-8 from Carroll Shelby Engine Co. powers the Shelby GT500. Available with a choice of an aluminum and cast-iron block making over 550 horsepower, the engine is backed by a 4-speed manual transmission. Just like the original, the cars have disc brakes and the famous Shelby double stripes. Automatic and manual transmissions are available.
Each heritage Shelby GT500 comes with a Shelby Continuation serial number and is documented for the official registry.
