Brief History About Ford's Shelby GT500 Models:
When Ford Motor Company invited Hertz and Carroll Shelby to rejoin forces for an anniversary edition Rent-A-Racer program in 2006, good things were about to happen! Not only was this program a wonderful success, but it also became a baseline for Ford executives to realize that SVT Mustang fans were indeed ready for Shelby's resurrection with a return of the Mustang GT500. It seemed inevitable, but the process began slowly with a mildly modified Shelby GT version for 2007 that included body enhancements, suspension upgrades, along with performance engine tuning and exhaust system. These GT models were special in the fact that they were delivered to Shelby Automobiles Inc. in Las Vegas for their transformation, just like the originals were in the 1960's. When the Shelby GT500 production began that same year, all were individually built at that Ford production plant in Flat Rock, Michigan to better control both production volume and quality standards. It was an unquestionable success, and buyers couldn't get their hands on the 500hp Shelby GT500 fast enough!
