Very fast, eye catching iconic muscle car from a golden era that is very collectable now days, genuine 65 SHELBY GT350R's fetch in excess of a million dollars in the US, this has been built in a way that allows the versatility to be used in any form of motorsport, would make the ideal club car or an ultra competitive historic racer or tarmac rally car, even a show quality drag car

If you are after a very powerful track car or just a toy, this car ticks all the boxes.
Very easily registered,(will need a handbrake assembly and that's ABOUT it), (GT350R's didn't have handbrakes from factory) everything else works

Started life as genuine "A" code GT fastback. It has NOT being built up from a C code or 6cyl, body like most others

Trailer can be sold separate if not required (I have plenty of takers !!)
