Photo Gallery «Jumping Mustangs - Shelby, Bullitt and Eleanor»
The Shelby Mustang GT 350 and its bigger brother GT 500 were greatly improved versions of the normal Ford Mustang. Intended for mass sports, they also found their way into the film world, not least with the car movie Gone in 60 Seconds starring Nicolas Cage. Ford also followed suit and launched the Ford Mustang GT 390. This in turn served as Steve McQueen's movie car in Bullitt. The Shelby Mustangs were very successful on the racetracks, but also in sales, and are still popular and sought-after today.
