I am going to turn my 65 coupe into a shelby gt350r daily driver! Anyone do this or have any cool pictures of a gt350R? Thanks!

 

look in the "gallery " on this forum ... hundreds of photo`s ...

 

Well you don't have a fastback so that's strike on. So instead of cloning I would just take bits and pieces from it. Make it one of a kind.

 

i dint reallise all the shelby coupes iv`e seen were`nt real ..
.

 

Am I misinformed? I always thought Shelby only did fastbacks. :notsurenow:

 

someone will enlighten us ...they still look good if not real

 

Yup. They sure do. We need a historian. Charlie?

 

I believe there were only three coupes made by Shelby and only one still exists today.

 

Most of the "Shelby coupes" you see should actually be California Special or High Country Special clones, but they didn't make those two options in 1965 if a I am not mistaken. So, Shelby coupe clones from that period are made from aftermarket "ducktail" end caps and Le Mans stripes.

 

And also aftermarket fiberglass hood and side scoops.

 

Yes I knew shelby didn't make coupes gt350r's I just wanted to color my car white with blue stripes and put on torque thrust 40's and put a roll cage in it. And I was going to do side exhaust and a front shelby R valance

 

They still look good and you don't have to worry about affecting the value of a fastback. I think it'll look great. I had a '66 coupe in 1980 and always wanted to do that!

 

Really? That's great man ill be sure to post plenty of pictures along the way to show you the progress thanks a lot for your input!
