The people at Dream Giveaway always find a way to one-up themselves, and this duo of one-of-a-kind Mustangs is a strong testament to that. Owning just one of these cars, or even ‘just’ a Shelby GT350 from any era would certainly satisfy the dreams of many enthusiasts, but two “experimental” Shelby Mustangs would pretty much be life changing.
Making it even sweeter, there’s one to represent the classic era, and one modern muscle car GT350. Owning these cars used to be an out-of-reach dream for most people, but the 670-horsepower, Classic Recreations 1965 Shelby Mustang G.T. 350X and an 875-horsepower, Steeda Autosports 2017 Shelby GT350X could be yours for a $3 ticket that you can pick up, directly, from HERE.
The classic Shelby is the first retail 1965 Shelby GT350CR. This is possible thanks to a licensing agreement made with Carroll Shelby’s Shelby United, but production will be extremely limited. Even if you make the list, you’re looking at two or more years of waiting, and around $150,000 to get one.
This Mustang is the only 1965 GT350X, which is a genuine handcrafted GT350CR. It took over 2,000 hours to build it, and it is powered by a supercharged 5.0L Coyote engine, backed by a Tremec manual transmission.
