Another tease from Shelby American :)

It's definitely a 2018 - entire front end is sloped downward and it has the new headlights.

Welcome back the retro of the 68 GT500KR.

I went to the Shelby Booth at Barrett Today, had a good laugh at the Shelby America Shelby GT350R. The rep approached me and I said I didn't know you guys made a variant of the the GT350R. He said oh no that's a Ford Vehicle, no $&@! Sherlock. I mean I didn't know you charged 20k to slap on a Shelby decal, new wheels and open lugs. It's ridiculous, I'm glad I'm not going anymore to see a rebadged Mustang GT with a supercharger.
No photos bro?!?!? :shrug:

According to the last teaser before this, it's a 17' front clip. The bottom lip and splitter is identical to the 15-17.

Is that FaceBook photo from the Barrett-Jackson reveal, or from a previous GTE reveal?

The headlights are the same as the '15-17 though. Look at the tri-bar DRLs. Unless this has elements of both pre and post-refresh.

Ummm, the 2 photos I posted are from Shelby's own Facebook page. So, unless they are trolling, this is what we'll get at BJ.

We'll know for sure in a few hours.

I am lost here, you ask the Shelby guy if they did a variant of the GT350R. but when he says no its a Ford vehicle, you gave this type of reaction "no $&@! Sherlock"?

Cool Story Bro


If the car was red, it might of been Gary Patterson (President of Shelby American) GT350R.

Yep, looks like Gary's put some Shelby American wheels on his Race Red GT350R (judging by a Facebook photo I saw) :)

An hour and 8 mins 'till the reveal :)
