![]() | In 1967, Shelby was squeezing the C6ME ‘Police Interceptor’ 428 into the mustang which created the GT500. It included a host of upgrades including Holley BJ/BK carburetors, manifolds, RUGS-1 transmission, 3.50 Traction-Lok rear end, braking system with KH calipers and drums, a louvered hood, inboard driving lights, and optional 10-spoke wheels with Goodyear tires. Power was 355 bhp @ 5400 rpm. |
The GTs lost their Cobra tag for 1969 and were marketed simply as Shelby GT350 and Shelby GT500. Carroll Shelby terminated his agreement with Ford in the summer of 1969. | ![]() |
