Hello, I am Bullitt. I'm from the wonderful state of North Carolina. I do not own a Mustang, however, if I could it would be a '68 GT 390, a '67 Ford-Shelby GT-500 (yes, Eleanor), or a '68 GT 302.

There never was a SHELBY GT 500.

The SHELBY is a convertable roadster witha 427 under the hood of a light ass frame.

The GT500 is a 'stang with a big block under the hood (can't recall if it's a 427 or 428 off hand).

BIG DIFFERENCE.....and It's one of my pet peeves<img border="0" src=smileys/smiley7.gif border="0">

hey i still love the car.

I beg to differ. Actually, Ford and Shelby came together to build the GT-500. (Yes, is was a 428 c.i. V-8.) Just as Ford and (I believe) Toyota came together to make the Ford Probe.

I think there also was the GT 500 KR model with the 428 interceptor.I think the KR stood for something like king of the road.

Correct. Ford and Shelby got together to make somthing that would dominate Trans Am. That is when they made the GT-350 (small block). The 500 was the one that got the big block.

For some reason I really like the looks of the '69 Shelby.<edited><editID>converted</editID><editDate>37771.6331134259</editDate></edited>

As far as dominating T/A,how about the BOSS, oh yeah.Grabber orange high reving 302,most definitely a personal dream car.

Oh how I wish I had a BOSS 429. Hell, I would love to have a BOSS 351 too.
