Nope, that would have the “KR” callout next to the “G.T.500” on the rocker stripe. ---

this guy parked next to us last night with a silver or grey brand new GT500E? i dunno what a GT500E is but just looking at the old design compared to the new one, you can how the redesign looks Almost as similar but smoother flowing ---

LOL. “Brand-new” is a relative term. The GT-500E is the infamous “Eleanor” from Gone In 60 Seconds. Unique Performance buys up clean '67 and '68 non-Shelby fastbacks, strips them, and converts them into Shelby-VIN’d 500Es. They wanted (still do) to buy my fastback. An actual GT-500E from UP retails for around $90-$150K. The problem is that you can buy all the body parts needed to replicate one, so anybody can throw one together in their garage and sell it on eBay for damn close to that price. It pisses me off because a clean, all original S-code 390 GT 4-sp. fastback will pull in “only” $60-$70K, while a well-done homebuilt Eleanor clone will fetch almost six-figures. Now there are '65-'66 versions as well. It’s a fad and I pray it dies and fucking soon. Don’t get me started on the brand-new Dynacorn sheet-stamping fastbacks, either :mad: ---

I’m hoping the Eleanor fad dies soon too. They were cool for a bit, but doesn’t deserve to clean up all the Fastbacks out there. TrueBlue, you did get that car for a song. You better not sell it. Make your Bullitt Resto Rod 🙂 Unique Performance does some awesome work. They even made a 69/70 looking new Mustang that was at SEMA. I can’t find pictures of it at all. They will have a huge display at SEMA this year that I can drool over their Mustangs and Camaros again. ---

I like the UP car, just not the fact that they eat up good restorable FB’s in the process when they could just buy the Dynacorn shells. Don’t worry, mine is _not_ going to be a Smellawhore clone 🙂 ---
