You must be joking! A Shelby GT350 featured in the iconic film “Gone in 60 Seconds”? It’s Eleanor, indeed! How are you doing? This beautiful car is genuinely remarkable. It’s not a mere replica; this is the real deal—a 1967 GT350. With only 1,175 ever produced, owning this rare gem is an absolute privilege. Its Wimbledon White paint pays homage to Carroll Shelby’s legacy as both a remarkable race car driver and an exceptional car builder. Ford’s partnership with Shelby was a game-changer.
I acquired this car in Las Vegas about a dozen years ago, and it has since become synonymous with its appearance in the movie “Gone in 60 Seconds,” starring Nicolas Cage. The car’s nickname, Eleanor, has only added to its value. The 1967 model is undoubtedly the best of its time, a testament to Carroll Shelby’s vision and craftsmanship. This vehicle is not the result of a Ford assembly line; it is the product of Shelby and his team’s dedication to excellence.
This car epitomizes the coolness of the 1960s, with Shelby making around 100 modifications to the original Ford Mustang, enhancing its performance, handling, and style. This car is the epitome of cool, and any car enthusiast would be thrilled to own it. In pristine condition and with all-original components, this car is a dream come true.
Featuring an original four-speed top loader and 63,000 original miles, this car has been well-maintained throughout its life. While the upholstery may have been redone, it has been done expertly and with respect for the car’s history. Furthermore, the glove box bears Shelby’s signature, adding even more value to this already impressive vehicle.
