This 66 Shelby Replica has been transformed over a 4 year period to the Awesome machine it is today by our staff. $80k in parts and labor spent on the build. It is truly one of a kind and FAST! The Replica is based on the 12 Mustang coupes that Carroll Shelby pulled off the assembly line in 1966 and built them to his likeness to show at dealerships across the country. It was not a production car. One of the original 12 brought $300k plus. One of our older body men remembers seeing one at a local dealer as boy with his father. So the project began!
