GT 500 Pro Tourer
I think we are far enough along on this one to make it interesting for everyone,well maybe not everyone after all its not a Camaro.
This is a genuine non orig numbers GT 500 Shelby and we are gunna cut into it, I can here the purists screaming now!. this will run a shelby alloy 427 block with blue thunder heads heads and TWM/Borla injection 6 speed tremec Magnum,TCP suspension front and rear, Baer 6s brakes,the customer has asked us to remake all the Original shelby fibreglass in metal.and end up with a fit and finish to rival his high end cars. Bit of a challenge,lets see. Sorry if this is abit boring to start with. http://i492.photobucket.com/albums/r...elby_front.jpg http://i492.photobucket.com/albums/r...R/DSC_5646.jpg http://i492.photobucket.com/albums/r...R/DSC_5755.jpg http://i492.photobucket.com/albums/r...R/DSC_5975.jpg0TOURER/DSC_5966.jpg[/IMG] |

cool :thumbsup:
like the side scoops need to tell your guys that they installed the steering wheel on the Wrong SIDE!! :_paranoid |
:wow: :wow: :wow:
:faint: :faint: :faint: This will be a great project, I'll be watching this build for sure! I'm a Shelby purist, but I can't help to think of what would have happened if Shelby had his hands on our modern technology when he were building these cars. This will be a fine example of that mystery! |

Great metal work. And good choice on the suspension! Right hand drive FTW!
|
Serious skills.
|
All your cars that i have seen are simply amazing..
Great job:hail: |
Really cool! I am a huge fan of the '67-'68 fastback body style, especially '68 GT500's. I see in the rendering though, that your going from the '68 Shelby nose to the '67?
|
Dang nice looking work. Looks like your busy with other cars as well.:cool:
|
That is sick, love the right hand drive.
PS: dude you should not hold out on your website, incredible facility you have! www.southernrodcustom.com |

How many hours do you think you will have into copying the fiberglass sheby parts in metal? I am just wondering how it would compare to buying the fiberglass. Great work. Scott.

OK update time,fabbed up the front last couple of weeks, lengthened the hood
3 inchs and fabbed a functional hood scoop,decided after welding on the front half of the hood (repro piece of CR***P) that I would fab the scoop in aluminum and bond it onto the hood. finished fabbing the front fascia,next Im onto the lower valance/ air dam then on its wheels to have a look outside at its profile. http://i492.photobucket.com/albums/r...R/DSC_7809.jpg http://i492.photobucket.com/albums/r...R/DSC_7820.jpg http://i492.photobucket.com/albums/r...R/DSC_7823.jpg http://i492.photobucket.com/albums/r...R/DSC_7824.jpg http://i492.photobucket.com/albums/r...R/DSC_7831.jpg |
