The very first Shelby Mustang, the Shelby GT350 saw the light of day in 1965. It was faster than the high-performance Mustang GT version as well as considerably more expensive, making it a far-fetched dream for many. Shelby American decided to intervene in 1966 to make driving your dream muscle car a viable option. The Rent-A-Racer program took off and Hertz Corporation in partnership with Shelby added 1,000 GT350s to its rental fleet that would later be sold to the public as "GT350H" models. This particular 1966 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350H is one such rare example that enjoys a new manual transmission system. Read on to learn more exciting options included with this vehicle.
Most Hertz cars wore black with gold LeMans stripes and rocker panel identification stripes and our subject car also displays that design. Atop the hood is an integrally designed functional hood air scoop and on the sides of the car you can notice rear brake air scoops. The rear quarter panel windows are defining features of this model. This car rides on wide-based steel wheels and they house Kelsey Hayes front disc brakes with ventilated discs and special full competition pads and wide drum rear brakes with metallic linings. A 1" diameter front anti-roll bar tames this Shelby’s body roll. Opening the doors to this 1966 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350H takes you to a nostalgic car cabin with bucket seats and a Shelby wood steering wheel that features quick ratio steering. The dash-mounted tachometer is a reminder of a simpler time while Shelby-approved competition "quick release" seat belts speak to its performance traits.
This 1966 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350H is propelled by a 289ci HiPo engine that is mated to a new 4-speed manual transmission. Adorned with Cobra aluminum valve covers, this engine gets its air-fuel mixture via a center pivot float four-barrel carburetor. Moreover, a Shelby special high riser manifold, special designed exhaust system, and an extra capacity finned & baffled aluminum oil pan help this GT350H perform at its peak. Meanwhile, a competition suspension effectively puts the power to the road while keeping the passengers comfortable.

In 2005, Ford revealed the all-new fifth generation Mustang to the public. This was a significant moment, because the fourth generation was really old in the tooth. It would sit on a totally new platform, and have styling that harked back to the original first-generation as well. The fifth generation also marked the return of the Shelby Mustang. This fine association was prevalent in the first generation, when Carroll Shelby’s outfit tuned Mustangs to become thoroughbred racehorses! In 2007, the Shelby GT500 for the fifth generation was released, and we have an under 10,000-mile example for sale now. This car comes with the original window sticker too, making it a definite must-have for the discerning collector, or someone who wants a relatively rare Mustang to enjoy.
First generation Mustangs are highly desirable classics so it’s great that there are plenty of them around. For the first proper year of first generation production, which was 1965, Ford made around 559,451 units of them! Of course this covered all three body styles, but coupes were the biggest sellers. Models like this 1965 Ford Mustang Convertible only saw around 72,000 units sold that year. That’s why this car is a great catch given that it’s not too rare to become prohibitively expensive. It’s up for sale with just under 9,000 miles, a manual gearbox and a nice 289 under the hood.
Now here’s a lovely golden oldie that will put a smile on your face every time you grab its keys and head out to take it for a spin. This pleasing first-generation 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible could be yours if you like. Up for sale in West Palm Beach, Florida with a mere 52,636 miles on the clock, it’s a fine first-generation example of a trend-setter. Yes, if not for the Mustang, we wouldn’t have the pony car segment, as well as models like the Chevy Camaro, Pontiac Firebird, etc. The Mustang not only created a segment, it redefined what the fun but practical car could be. This particular example packs the popular 289ci V8 under the hood, and comes with a manual transmission. It’s also got factory air conditioning!
The Ford Thunderbird was made between 1955 and 1997 across ten generations, and redefined the Personal Luxury Car for Americans. In fact, it created the segment, largely inspired by the Grand Tourers of Europe. So, in the 2000s, Ford was feeling a little misty eyed and decided to create a rose-tinted eleventh generation homage to this iconic nameplate. Enter the retro-modern Thunderbird that was made between 2002 and 2005. Styled by Jack Telnack, the car sat on the Ford DEW98 platform, used an engine from Jaguar (who Ford owned at the time), and marked a return to roots of sorts, in that it was a two-seater, just like the first generation. Over 68,000 examples were made, and we have one for sale. Say hello to this original owner, all-stock 2002 Ford Thunderbird from South Jordan, Utah, that’s got just 13,085 miles on the clock.
The famous Ford F-Series was born in 1948, as America was emerging into a post-war world of promise and prosperity. Now in the fourteenth generation, the F-Series has got to be the world’s longest-running truck series, if not one of the longest. Today, the F-150 is the most popular variant as the half-tonner, but if we look at the first generation, the range simply started with the F-1 as the half-ton variant. That’s what we have here, a 1950 Ford F-1 Restomod from Groveport, Ohio. It’s received a thorough makeover with a 350ci V8 under the hood, an automatic gearbox, a converted 12-volt electrical system and more. If you want to own a classic Ford truck that you can actually enjoy driving, this 78,000-mile machine is your best option.
The fourteenth generation of the Ford F-150 was introduced in 2021, and remains the current one on sale. There are several variants, including the Raptor and Lightning, but this particular truck is a little different. You see, it’s a 2021 Ford F-150 Shelby which, as the last part of its name suggests, has received tuning by Shelby American, the company founded by the legendary Carroll Shelby. Yes, Shelby didn’t only tune Mustangs; he turned his attention to other Ford models, and after his demise, the company continues that fine legacy. So, just how potent is this machine? Well, how does 950 horsepower grab you? We’d say that it grabs you very strongly indeed. If you’d like to own this fearsome beast, it’s up for sale in Torrance with a mere 47,521 miles on it so far.
“Tastefully done”, this is a line used in moderation within the world of automotive. To achieve this significant milestone, one needs to channel the gods of upgrades, do too much, and you take away classic charm; do too little, and you might have a car that stands out, but not in a good sense. Present today is this lovely 1974 BMW 3.0 CS, it's a machine that can pass off as the poster child of “tastefully done”. Located in Delray Beach, Florida, and with just 27,088 miles on its clock, this classic BMW is a car that makes you look twice and might take up a significant portion of your day, lost in reverie.
This 1974 Chevrolet Corvette stands as a testament to classic American muscle. Recently rebuilt, the vehicle features a stunning blue exterior and a meticulously refurbished interior. With only 3000 miles post-rebuild, this car captures the essence of freedom and performance that the Corvette model is renowned for. The attention to detail is evident in each aspect, making it an appealing choice for enthusiasts and collectors alike.
The 1990 Rolls-Royce Silver Spur II represents the final evolution of Rolls-Royce’s traditional long-wheelbase luxury saloon before the marque transitioned into the modern era. Built at Crewe, England, the Silver Spur II was engineered to deliver effortless performance, exceptional ride comfort, and unmatched craftsmanship. Powered by the legendary 6.75-liter V8 and designed with rear passenger comfort as a priority, the Silver Spur II stands as one of the most refined chauffeur-oriented sedans of its time, blending stately presence with understated mechanical sophistication.
