Default SHELBYS!! many pics (thumbnail)

Well I was in heaven today when I saw this...






























































How often will you ever see this many Shelby Cobras and Mustangs in one place?
RARELY!
there was even a Shelby built Sunbeam Tiger!
Inside the museum they have the FIRST built GT500, the GT500EXP(previously pictured) another GT500 (pictured) GT350 race car(previously pictured), and a GT350H in the restoration shop, they just sold the GT500KR convertible (previously pictured) Oh and they have a GT500 Eleanor from Gone in Sixty Seconds (not replica)
I hope you enjoyed these I sure did.

If you want pics of the other Shelby's inside just Ask and I'll look for them.

Both but all but 2 were built by Shelby the other 2 were Superformance Race cars. (does it really matter)
But yes most of the Cobra's were replicars I think 5 were original runs from the 60's, all the Mustangs were real and serialized.

Danm, beautiful pure bloods.
I'm not a big fan of Mustangs, but they have soul in plenty.

holy shit, could you imagine how much that whole parking area must have been worth if they were all originals?
And by the way, were there any daytona coupes there?
