1965 GT500E Eleanor #358 in the Shelby Eleanor World Registry

#358 in the Shelby Eleanor Registry. This beauty was started as a rust free CA car all its life! The coupe was converted to a fastback coupe conversion. The body work is excellent and definitely not a cheap/quick sand and paint job; this was a proper/complete job done utilizing a rotisserie restoration machine. The powertrain was then built with a Ford 302 5.0 engine. The engine was built with the best add-ons: Edelbrock dual (2) carburetors, MSD ignition, Edelbrock air and valve cleaners, AND a Comp Cam was additionally added for a true muscle car sound (please refer to the video below). All engine work was professionally done and engine interior components were machined and replaced to proper specs. The body lines are laser straight with multiple layers of PPG Global clear... which results in a mirror-like wet finish. The paint used is the highest quality paint possible: Exact paint codes from the movie, 'Gone in 60 seconds' Dupont Eleanor Grey Metallic #44490 and Dupont Black (stripes) #44432.
