Carroll Shelby prepared 3 cars for his School of High Perfomance Driving! RECREATION

Carroll Shelby prepared 3 cars for his School of High Performance Driving, 5S021, 5S029 and 5S451. The ORIGINAL Shelby Driving School Cars have each been valued at over $1,000,000. This car was built to RECREATE 5S451.
I believe this car now resides in Australia.

I Miss The Days When Us Working Class Schmucks Could Buy an Old Muscle Car for a Decent Price & Actually Be Able To Drive & Enjoy! Now The Rare Ones are For The Super Rich To Collect & Display For Their Super Rich Buddies! I Guess These Days The Fox, New Edge & S-197's are Like The Muscle Cars of The 60'S & 70'S Were To Us In The Late 70'S- 80'S Get Your s Now! So Now I am Like The Guy Who Bought His 68 Shelby GT-500 & Never Sold it 20 Years Later! Yep I Can Dig It! Love My 07 GT-500 With 34K More Now Than Then! Now If I Had Just Kept That Roushcharged GT/CS!

Keep & Enjoy What You Have Folks Cause Somebody Else Would Love To Have Your Stang!

Love To Have a Car Like The Op Pictured! Got a Ride in One Very Similar as a Teen And The Guy Driving Was a Madman! The Feel & Sounds are Still in My Memory! Car Was Acid Dipped and Resonated Like Drum With a Built to the Hilt 289 and 4.10 Gears! **** it was Angry! Can't Beat The Sound of a Pushrod V-8 for Us Baby Boomers!

the good news is that a very affordable newer car like my 2010 GT outperforms those old cars in just about every way ... the rich guys can keep the old cars in their museums, I'll drive my cheap non-collectable one around the track all I want!
