Shelby never built the 500. He was only caught up in development of the 350. I’m no blue oval fan, but FoMoCo was the only one that had? whatever thing to do with this car.
Too slow. a Hurst Olds was quicker all around, and out handled it. Out broke it too. Shelby needs to get out of the performance? market. He lost his touch.
Kiddo, I have the E-type you’re talking about sitting right outside. It has been in the family since it was groundbreaking new.? There’s always been a pony or muscle-car everyplace in the garage beside it, mostly Mopars. The E-type NEVER EVER have stood a chance in performance or reliability compared to the american cars we have owned. Don’t get me incorrect, I like it for what it is – but you probably should do as I always have done – get some FACTS, try things physically, before you start preaching.
Check out C&T’s test on the 1969 Plymouth GTX 440. That car is huge, weighs like 3,700 pounds, but it handles VERY well. You see, General Motors and Ford were behind mopar (Chrysler/Dodge/Plymouth) in persons days in terms of suspensions, chassis, ignitions, valvetrains, the list goes on…mopar was? out in front in anticipation of the mid 70′s. Also, some guy rear-finished my Plymouth in his “modern” car and you know what happened? His car became an accordion, my car didn’t even have a dent.
You are comparing 2011 Euro technology to American 1967? Even 45 years ancient, this car would resell for 3 to 5 era the resell price of either of persons cars. Its called a “classic”. Instead, how? about comparing persons two cars to the 2011 Shelby GT500? They’d get killed.
Ha! Ancient cars like this crate would have an epic ail in an accident against ANY modern car. Look for the 59 Chevy Impala vs 09 Chevy Impala crash test on youtube.? And just about any European car from 1968 would leave this US built hulk for dead in the twisties-be in a Jag E Type or heck, even a VW Bug had a privileged skidpad rating back then.
Now why would you compare a 21st century car vs one made in 1968? You do grasp that back in the? ancient days this car Was King of The Road, The standards were lower back then, as you can see they do 0-40 tests. And fall to pieces? honestly? If one of your european VW or what ever were to get into an accident with this car it would be the european one that falls to pieces. Not to bring up this car doesnt sound like some golf cart on steroids eithier, kinda like your shitty european cars fag
