Classic Recreations 1967 G.T.500CR prototype makes first public appearance in Las Vegas the same weekend as the NASCAR Shelby American Race
Yukon, Okla. (Feb 26th, 2010) - Less than four months after custom coachbuilder Classic Recreations announced the Officially-Licensed 1967 Shelby G.T.500CR continuation car program at the 2009 SEMA Show in Las Vegas, the first prototype made its debut in the same city but with a very different setting.
Details of the reborn supercar have been a closely guarded secret, but on February 25th, 2010, the first GT500CR prototype was photographed near the Shelby American facility in Las Vegas, prior to an all-Shelby weekend where car owners and NASCAR fans gathered to celebrate the legendary mark during the NASCAR Shelby American GT350 stock car race.
The G.T.500CR is the first official 1967 Shelby Mustang continuation car ever built, and each hand-built vehicle features a 427 cubic inch (7.0L) engine, model specific bodywork, custom paint and hand-stitched upholstery.
Every G.T.500CR has an official Shelby serial number, badges and will be included in the Shelby World Registry. The prototype that appeared in Las Vegas is the 545 horsepower Performance Model, featuring a fuel injected, naturally aspirated engine, Tremec overdrive transmission, modern coil-over suspension with rack-and-pinion steering, modern vented disc brakes, and a custom handcrafted interior featuring Carroll Shelby signature seats, custom gauges, brushed aluminum trim, five-point harnesses and more.
Other G.T500CR models include the Intro and the top of the line Venom which boasts a high performance four-link coilover rear suspension and a 780 horsepower supercharged, intercooled hand built engine. Prototypes for both the Intro and the Venom will be introduced soon.
