Retro 2007 Ford Shelby Mustang GT350 shows up on eBay

Back a couple of months ago at Mustang Week in Myrtle Beach, SC, I spotted amongst the hundreds of fox bodies and Roush's a car that made me do a double look. At first glance it appeared to be a nicely done late 60's Mustang, but something wasn't quite right.

After getting around the crowd to take a closer look, I noticed that it was in fact a 2007 Mustang with some interesting retro body work. Retrobuilt constructed this one off as a prototype to produce molds for fiberglass body kits.

And now the prototype is up for grabs on eBay. Current bids are around the $30,000 range, which is certainly a decent price range for a unique and (for now) one off ride.

2010 Shelby Super Snake Mustang takes the crown, and your lunch money

Carroll Shelby has been adding power and handling prowess to Ford's venerable Mustang for generations. In addition to helping out with the GT500, Shelby also lends a hand with the ultimate (for now) 2010 Mustang, the Shelby Super Snake.

The Super Snake doesn't try to play the part of sleeper with it's aggressive paint scheme and body work. Trying to hide it's true intentions is just pointless when you're behind the wheel of a machine sporting a 5.4L V8 pumping out 750hp and 710 lb-ft of torque.

To us, the Super Snake is the ultimate new Mustang not only in power but in looks. It's certainly got an attitude, but it's not overboard or in your face. A lot of tuner 'stangs look tacky, their fiberglass body parts seem like a mere afterthought tacked on to differentiate it from the many others.

For those lucky enough to drive or even own a Super Snake, we can envision many happy backroad adventures. Or just sitting in your climate controlled garage staring at it. Either way, the Shelby Super Snake satisfies in a way none of the other aftermarket Mustangs can - in every way.

Labor Day Flashback: The Making of Bullitt

Making of Bullitt

Bullitt was a man's car movie, the kind made without all those fancy CGI effects and fake computer wizardry. The chase scene, featuring Steve McQueen's 1968 Mustang going up against a black 1968 Charger R/T 440 Magnum, is still one of the best of all time.

And that very chase was real, with the cars topping 100 mph on the hilly streets of San Francisco. A groups of some of the best stunt drivers around teamed up to make one seriously epic scene.

Check out this ten minute video to see how Bullitt was made, and another bonus video showing the chase scene in it's entirety.
