Project Info

Our goal with this full restoration of #387 of 562 Shelby Mustang GT-350s was to stay true to the original designers’ and builders’ intent while providing the best possible modern technology and practices could yield—to build the quintessential GT350.

Details like body panel alignment, how the bumpers fit, the way the doors open and close, the finish and polish of the original wood & aluminum steering wheel, and the sound and feel of the transmission all far exceed original 1965 standards. Every effort was made to capture not only what this car was, but what it could have been without the assembly line and production constraints of the day.
