The outlines of the lower bumper looks like it is a GT350, so I think it is going to be an upgrade kit for that car. Here are a few my guesses for it:

GT350S (like the 55 supercharged 1966 prototypes) or GT350SC
GT350 Twin Turbo Kit
GT500/GT500KR
Some sort of GT350 Trans-Am, SAAC or SCCA racer model

Trying to think of others. Think historical Shelbys.

It is also possible that it could be a special Shelby 4 Cylinder turbo model.

There is also a rumor going around on Team Shelby about a "Super Cobra" upgrade.

We will just have to wait and see...

They just released the GT for Lemans. Maybe this is the GT350 racer.

It is NOT a GT500. Someone already asked and Shelby American replied no, and no plans in the near future

I would guess the Ecoboost model, but I doubt it would be a GT350 especially with a supercharger

I hate to say it but that car definitely looks like it has a GT350 front end (I hope I'm wrong).

As long as it isn't like the typical "tuner" Shelby's as of late, it'll be worth a look...

Not trying to be a dick, but the originality from Shelby has been lacking for quite awhile.

Also, the raised hood portion looks close to the Shelby GT.

Let's hope we see something drool worthy!

Most likely just debuting their exterior parts. I have seen pictures of all their carbon fiber pieces. The Carbon hood will be $1999

Well, we did see and hear two very distinctive "different" GT350's running around the 'Ring when they were still camo'ed. Remember how different sounding the two cars were? Maybe this is that other one.

I could be totally off here, but knowing what we know now with the GT350 and GT350R why hasn't this been questioned? Do we think the two we saw were "R" and "non-R" models?

who cares, its just shelby slapping on other companies' aftermarket parts and calling it "special"

shelby american has NOTHING to do with new car development at ford (gt350 and gt500)
