S H E L B Y 2006 2007 GTH The return of Shelby American
« on: March 20, 2018, 09:42:23 AM »
In 2006 the Shelby GTH became the first true new Shelby made. Unlike its more powerful brother made by Ford SVT the GT500 made at the Ford plant. These GTHs were post title conversions very similar to the way the original Shelbys made in the 1960s. Like the 1960s Ford sent mustangs to Shelby American to be converted in this particular case to become GTHs. With the start of this new Hertz Shelby program and the introduction of the new SVT GT500, this sparked a renewed interest in S H E L B Ys.  This program kicked off the KR, GT350, GTS and Super Snake programs. Production for the 2006 2007 GTHs was 500 for each year. It was the first time that any Ford product shared it's regular V.I.N with  a C.S.M. tag since the late 1960s / 1970.
