SUMMARY

"The fastest, most balanced, fearsome muscle car in the world", the 725bhp Shelby Super Snake, possibly the only one in the UK.

DESCRIPTION

  • Take a standard 500bhp Ford Shelby GT500, hand it over to Shelby Automobiles and allow them to use their ingenuity, engineering prowess and add a touch of venom, and you have the Shelby Super Snake
  • As Carroll Shelby said, "The GT500 is fast, but enthusiasts wanted more". This is the car, '"the fastest, most balanced, fearsome muscle car in the world." 
  • Finished in Vapor Silver, this amazing example was purchased new in early 2008 from Friendly Ford in Vegas and shipped directly to Shelby for the 725bhp conversion to begin (0-135mph in 10 seconds)
  • Purchased by our vendor from its first owner around three years ago with 36,000 miles indicated
  • It remains a standard Super Snake upgraded only with 6-pot Calipers at the rear and teardrop mirrors
  • Number 127 of the 2008 production, our vendor believes it's the only one in the UK
  • Massive spec, too much to mention here, but for further information, see the Condition Report
