This 1965 Fastback has undergone our full nut and bolt rotisserie restoration and is now a tribute of the famous Shelby GT350. This was the first year that the GT350 was produced and is regarded by some as being the best. It has been finished in correct Wimbledon White (Dupont) paint with Blue LeMans Stripes. The new black interior is complemented with a tribute Shelby dash mounted tachometer pod (we make these as they can’t be brought for a right hand drive car) and Mota-Lita steering wheel. With a fully rebuilt and balanced high performance engine, you will relive the excitement this model created when launched as you grip the Mota-Lita steering wheel and fire up the engine.
