did anyone watch rides on discovery channel at 5.30 yesterday? it was about this workshop that specialises in building eleanor replicas, but they are actually "offical eleanors", like with new ford VIN nubmers, and would be registered as a Shelby GT500E (e for eleanor).
the supersnake also comes with a supercahgred 427 with 725hp!

if its the ones im thinking of Shelby themselves are making them ..
So there are GENUINE shelbys - not replicas ..
What they do is basically search for and buy 68 shells , then rebuild them like they did in the 60's - creating new OLD Gt500's
then build apon them with more modern gear as per customer order ad E specification to set them apart from the original ORIGINAl gt500's

thats totally gay. i wasnt pay 100% attention when they were doing the nos but i got the impression (from the show) that it was real, just like in gone in 60 seconds. for 100000 you would think they could fucking put nos in. unless its a legality issue.
