It seems official ‘Eleanor‘ builders, Classic Recreations, are establishing themselves as a worldwide player in the custom car manufacture business with news hot of the press that the first Russian order has been placed for a “ultra high-performance 750 horsepower movie star supercar”.
Classic Recreations, who are the only company officially licensed to build the cars with the ‘Eleanor’ name, announce this week that they have taken an order from a buyer in Moscow.
“At Classic Recreations we pride ourselves on building the finest muscle cars in the world, and Eleanor is a famous, full-blown supercar,” said Classic Recreations owner Jason Engel. “Gone in 60 Seconds is a cult classic around the globe, so when you combine Eleanor’s international fame with our current offer of free international shipping and the current exchange rate of the dollar, international buyers recognize that they can have a hand-built, famous iconic supercar at a reasonable price.”
The Russia-bound Eleanor is a hand crafted, custom-built supercar based on a rotisserie restored 1967 Mustang fastback outfitted with a full complement of cutting edge performance parts and luxurious interior appointments. Power comes from a 750 horsepower supercharged 427 cubic inch (7.0 liter) engine hand-built by Keith Craft and outfitted with digital fuel injection. The full array of Classic Recreations Eleanor standard features include exclusive Eleanor body panels, mirror-finish custom paint, adjustable coil-over suspension, climate control, custom gauges, hand-made alloy wheels, a top-shelf sound system and five-point racing harnesses. Additional owner-specified upgrades will include a hand-crafted leather interior, keyless entry, and custom in-dash DVD and satellite navigation.

this is the best car ever. Iwant one
I would love to have one too but the working man can’t afford one everyone cateres to the rich
I have a 1967 Ford Mustang Fastback and I plan to convert it into an “Eleanor Mustang” but you don’t need to be SUPER RICH or RICH inorder to have one of these cars. You can have one for only $50,000 U.S Dollars. My dream was to always own one and its not going to be easy, but I always have faith when it comes to these things.
