Shelby did produce a 1967 shelby GT500. The GT500 "Eleanor" in the movie is NOT HIS CREATION! The "Eleanor" car in the movies was created by "Chip Foose", "Halicki" and a couple others. Carrol Shelby had NADA to do with the creation of "Eleanor". The producers of "Gone in 60 seconds" Hired "Foose" sto design the car. That front end and side exhaust on the "Eleanor" car was for the movie car. Shelby cars had a different front end and rear exhaust. Also in 1967 there were NO billet grilles produced by ANYONE! So, EVERY "Eleanor" car is a "CLONE"! If you really want to get technical in the muscle car world they would be classified as "Phantom cars" which means: "a car that never was" for instance say, a 1987 Buick Grand National convertible? Buick NEVER made this car but Ive seen a couple. They are "Phantom cars" as is "Eleanor"! Maybe you all need some education in muscle cars101? Shelby did produce a 1967 shelby GT500.

There are much better things to do in life then try to win frivolous lawsuits. If she wants to make quick money fast there's always the scratch off. Its a classic car before she was driving. GET A LIFE LADY. I agree with Gwyllym, "in 10 years the Real Shelby named cars and numbered will be woth the dollars and the others will always be considered just a knock off".
