Shelby Mustang
The pony car class that
the Ford Mustang helped create is the only class of muscle car that still exists
today.
In mid
1964, Ford introduced a sporty 2+2 fastback body style with a new "K-code" 271bhp 289
cid V8 that finally put some performance to match the Mustang's good looks.
For those that wanted
more, the legendary Carroll Shelby and Ford collaborated to produce the Shelby
GT-350, a Ford Mustang fastback specially tuned by Shelby. The 289 V8 produced 306bhp
in street tune and around 360bhp in special GT-350R race tune. These Shelbys had no
back seat, were only available in white and fully race ready.
