Beyond their superior power and handling over the Mustangs on which they were based, Shelby’s GT coupes and convertibles always had a decided advantage in the looks department, especially the 1967 version. Its aggressive front end treatment extended the hood and nose for an extremely aggressive appearance that was furthered by body side scoops and an upswept tail spoiler.
The 1967 Shelby GT500 on offer here embodies that entire attitude in all its freshly restored glory. Its highly desirable Dark Moss Green paint with White striping and Black Décor interior make for a show-stopping combination.
Powered by the Shelby-modified 428 CI Police Interceptor V-8 engine, which was fitted with dual 600 CFM Holley 4-barrel carburetors on an aluminum intake manifold and given a factory rating of 355 HP, (Dyno about 400 BHP) it will surely set you back in your seat.
