Shelby
Carroll Shelby packed several lifetimes into one: Le Mans-winning driver, creator of the Cobra, the man who turned Ford's GT40 programme into Ferrari-beating victory, and the name behind the Mustangs — GT350 and GT500 — that defined American performance. Original Cobras trade in the millions, with the 427 S/C and the Daytona Coupes at the summit of American collecting; documented Shelby Mustangs of 1965–70 form one of the most liquid blue-chip markets in the hobby. The name continues on today's most extreme factory Mustangs, but the 1960s cars are the canon — the most charismatic chapter in American motoring, signed by its most charismatic figure.
Shelby Daytona Coupe
Six cars, one Peter Brock silhouette, and the first FIA World Sportscar Championship GT class ever won by an American manufacturer.
Shelby GT350
The canonical Shelby Mustang — from the 1965 SCCA B-Production R-model to the Ford-built cars of 1969–70.
Shelby GT500
Carroll Shelby's big-block Mustang across its full 1967–1970 run — from the launch 428 Police Interceptor cars to the 428 Cobra Jet KR and the restyled 1969–70 SportsRoof.
Shelby Series 1
The only car Carroll Shelby designed from the ground up — 249 cars, an Oldsmobile Aurora V8, and a build story more contentious than the car itself.
