Few names evoke as much reverence and excitement as the Shelby GT500. Revered for its raw power, timeless design, and legendary status, the GT500 has left an indelible mark on the annals of automotive history.
To see just how far the Shelby GT500 has evolved through time, the folks at TFLclassics organized a drag race between between the classic 1967 Shelby GT500 Fastback Mustang and its modern counterpart, the 2020 Shelby GT500.
The 1967 Shelby GT500 Fastback Mustang stands as a monument to automotive history. Under its hood roars a mighty seven-liter V8, delivering 350 horsepower in its prime. On the other side, the 2020 Shelby GT500, sports a supercharged 5.2-liter engine, it unleashes a staggering 760 horsepower, making it a true force to be reckoned with.
Obviously, we already know which of these cars will cross the finish line first. But, it is still interesting to see how fast can the 1967 Shelby GT500 can go on a quarter-mile.
