Very First ’67 Ford Mustang Eleanor ‘Gone Again Edition’ Headed to Auction

The 1967 Ford Mustang Eleanor Gone Again is limited to 25 total units with a starting price tag of $500k, meaning this one is aiming for the sky.

Few movie cars have achieved the sort of notoriety that the Ford Mustang Eleanor from Gone in 60 Seconds fame has over the years, prompting multiple third-party companies and individuals to recreate its distinctive looks. Following a long, enduring legal battle, courts ruled that the Eleanor copyright holder couldn’t stop this influx from happening, but at the same time, Cinema Muscle Recreations is the very same company that created movie versions for the 2000 film remake, and it followed that effort with a line of recreations dubbed “Eleanor: Gone Again.”

Announced just last July, the Ford Mustang Eleanor Gone Again is limited to just 25 total units of production, and now, the very first of that lot is going to hit the block at Mecum’s 2026 Indy auction, taking place on May 16. This particular car just debuted last October at the 2025 Concours at Wynn Las Vegas, and it looks just like it could have rolled off a movie set, with Pepper Gray Metallic paint and those signature Forgeline 18-inch wheels, wrapped in Nitto NT55 tires.

One will also find 25th Anniversary badging throughout the exterior, which extends to the inside as well. Inside, the Mustang Eleanor Gone Again features a deluxe interior with lots of stainless and brushed aluminum trim, power windows with a hand crank control, power locks, Vintage Air A/C, a wooden steering wheel, and of course, the famous “Go Baby Go” button present on the shifter.

Mechanically speaking, this Mustang Eleanor Gone Again is powered by Ford’s Aluminator 5.0-liter V8, which in this case is equipped with the optional 3.0-liter Stage II Whipple supercharger. It’s mated to a Tremec six-speed manual transmission, sending power to the rear wheels via a Total Control Products/Fab9 g-Bar Ford 9-inch rear end.

There are plenty of other mechanical goodies underneath, including G-Machine front control arms with sculpted spindles, Total Control Products adjustable coilovers, power rack and opinion steering, and Wilwood four-wheel disc brakes with six-piston front and four-piston rear calipers.

Given the tremendous interest in Mustang Eleanor models, in general, coupled with the fact that this Gone Again edition is the very first one – and they start out at $500,000, sans options – we fully expect this one to rake in huge money when it crosses the block in a couple of months.
