As with the 1967 GT-500CR, the GT-350CR will utilize original Mustang vehicles built in the 1960s as the base vehicle, which will undergo a dynamic retromod upgrade by Classic Recreations. There will be a limit of ten Shelby GT-350CRs built each year.
“We’ve been building the '67 GT500CR for nearly two years and it's been a fantastic experience,” said Classic Recreations owner Jason Engel. “We’re honored to work with a legend like Shelby and the cars we’ve built over the past two years have received a wonderful reception by collectors and enthusiasts. The 1966 Shelby GT350 is one of the most beloved muscle cars ever built and I'm thrilled this new opportunity will allow us to build our clients' dream cars.”
Every Shelby GT350CR will be built with input and oversight from Carroll Shelby Licensing and Shelby American’s technical staff. Each car built at the Classic Recreations facility will leave the shop with an official Shelby serial number, badges and will be included in the official Shelby American World Registry. While the car will appear very close to the original 1966 GT350 cosmetically, it will feature a host of modern mechanical upgrades to give it supercar performance and driving characteristics. More details on the new model will be released shortly.
"We had a great response to our Shelby ‘67 GT500CR and I'm positive that Shelby fans will love the new car," Engel said. "It retains the most iconic Shelby elements everyone loves with turn-key reliability and unbelievable performance. We also offer clients the opportunity to design their dream car, choosing every detail from paint and upholstery to a long list of performance options. All with the obsessive attention to detail that our clients have come to expect."
