You already like a tribute car because its a great way to get into a dream classic for a much smaller price. But you should really dig deeper into this 1965 Mustang Shelby GT350 fastback tribute. With a supercharged V8and#44; this one will make people not think twice about it being original right up until it passes those Shelbys like they were standing still. Theres just no mistaking the original GT350 appearance. It starts with taking one of the rarest and often most valuable of the three Mustang configurationsand#44; the 2+2 fastbackand#44; and making it even better looking. So getting a tribute right is already an expensive proposition. This one started out with desirable Wimbledon White paint. It was professionally resprayed during restorationand#44; and now it includes the competition stripes that look quite distinctive in a very deepand#44; dark blue. Those stripes give the car some added flairand#44; as do the mirror-like chrome bumpers and the upgrade to 17-inch Eagle Alloy wheels. But at its heartand#44; this is a true Shelby tribute. The hood scoopand#44; side stripesand#44; side scoopsand#44; and a snake-bitten gas cap compete the GT350 packaging correctly. The interior is the perfect blend of vintage restoration and upgrades where you would want them the most. It starts with the black bucket seats that look like they are fresh from the factory in 65. The same level of investment goes for the door panelsand#44; carpetingand#44; headlinerand#44; and fold-down rear seat. Even the AM/FM radio has that great authentic look and feel (but it does have aux input for your modern music player.) Youll slip behind the wood-rimmed Shelby sports steering wheel. As you gaze at the upgraded AutoMeter gauge panel thats both in front of you and on the A-pillarand#44; you instantly know theres something very special in the engine bay. The moment you pop the hood you can see the serious investment in this car. That shiny Paxton supercharger looks greatand#44; and more importantlyand#44; it gives this V8 a serious boost in power. And thats not the only performance upgrade. The 289 cubic-inch motor has been bored out to 302and#44; and its been given throttle body fuel injectionand#44; hydraulic camand#44; GT40 headsand#44; MSD ignitionand#44; and long-tube headers. The full package is rated at around 400 horsepower. So you know the moment the moment you rev the motor where the dual exhaust gives a rumble and the supercharger produces its whineand#44; it will be a truly awesome experience that you and everyone within earshot wont forget. This is mated to an AOD four-speed automatic overdrive transmission with a 2and#44;800 RPM stall to keep you in the powerband. And that feeds the Traction Lok rear end running 3.90 gears. In a total power package like this youre going to want to have complete control. Thats why it has been upgraded to Randall rack andamp; pinion steeringand#44; thicker sway barand#44; four-wheel disc brakesand#44; and modern directional sport tires. This is such a cool custom that it made the cover of Detroit Speed Shops magazine. So youre looking at a tribute car that can also stand on its own ground. Thats why we love itand#44; and at this priceand#44; we also know it wont be with us long. Call today!!! |
