#A1801883 - In Stock - in 1:18 scale is a 1965 Ford Mustang Shelby GT-350 in Wimbledon White with Guardsman Blue Stripes with Reynolds Ford race day graphics.

A Texan, a racer and a sports car builder, Carroll Shelby, joined forces with the Ford Motor Company in 1965 to create the "muscle car phenomenon", a tremendous version of the Mustang was made to tear up the race track, but also cruise the streets.

In addition to the GT40 and Cobra programs, Ford commissioned Shelby to create an upgraded Mustang to compete in the SCCA B-Production Championship. Thanks to various weight-saving measures, the GT350 tipped the scales at 224 lbs. less than a regular V8-engined Mustang. Performance was further improved thanks to an array of chassis modifications and a tuned 306bhp motor.
