The Shelby Mustang story began in 1965 with the GT350, a track-focused car built by Carroll Shelby's team. It was quickly followed by the big-block GT500 in 1967, cementing the Shelby name as the ultimate performance Mustang. Ford has revived the nameplate several times, creating new generations of high-output halo cars for enthusiasts.

Buying Tips
- For 1960s cars, authentication is everything. Use the SAAC registry to verify VINs and serial numbers to ensure it's not a clone.
- Check for rust on classic models in common Mustang problem areas like floor pans, torque boxes, and around the glass.
- On modern GT350s, ask about oil consumption history, as the 5.2L Voodoo engine can have issues.
- Many Shelbys are modified. Well-documented, professional upgrades can add value, but be cautious of heavily modified cars without receipts or tuning records.
