Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"

This car has been discussed here previously and thought consensus it was a clone?Not sure I would want my identity known if I drove like that on the street.  That car is all over Instagram!

 Pretending the car is real (which it is not BTW it's an A code mustang) is pathetic IMO.

P.S. This is just like the fake Rolex people, another pathetic lot trying to impress for less  ::).

I didn't know its history.  I thought it looked and sounded cool is all.
Addendum:  Just spotted the export brace.  Bolts are not equidistant.  Not an original.

Not sure of the details of this car, but it does make beautiful music.

It's an A code mustang poorly dressed up as a gt350 - it's a shame that people can't just enjoy their mustang, they need to pretend it's a Shelby.

I assume by your comment you know the owner and have seen the car personally?

I think he was making a reasonable inference based upon the non-conforming export brace bolt spacing.

I was hoping he knew the owner, I would love to know what exhaust system he has.  It sounds wicked.

In the video, he said he has Tri-Y headers, an X-Pipe and an "Auger" muffler.
I had to do some internet research on that one as I'd never heard of an Auger muffler before.

Sounds absolutely amazing!

what a great video - I've not seen it before and really enjoyed it. thank you for posting.

I own a real Shelby and I see nothing wrong with someone building a clone. It does not diminish my car or the brand of my car. I don't speak for everyone but I speak for me. Not trying to start something in the forum- I'm ok with clones. Additionally as I see the price of 65 and 66 GT-350's going up in value it cant be hurting the hobby that much!

People build them for the love of Carroll Shelby and the love of these cars- it what brings us all together. In my eyes it makes real GT350's more desirable.

I saw the car in person when I used to live in Los Angeles, it's an A code mustang. I disagree with people that think this is okay, the car had a fake Shelby vin tag on it and is being portrayed as a real car, lets hope it's representing 2227 since the owner of that Shelby is cool with it.
