Blast from the past: Shelby GT Mustang

If we could give one car that was iconic of the way American cars are meant to be, it would have to be the Mustang, the ultimate muscle car.

The particular model that stands out is the Shelby GT Mustang series, which refer to a number of Mustangs modified by Carroll Shelby’s company. Shelby Mustangs were high performance variants that were present in mid 1960’s to 1970. The most common look for these cars is to sport two stripes that run at the top-middle of the car, from the hood to the back. These stripes are referred to as Le Mans stripes. The car is so popular and sought after that models today are sold for six figure sums. Ford has also attempted to cash in on the popularity of the iconic automobile, and released a 2007 version of the Shelby GT Mustang.
