Personally, I don't really care for the GT500E's that shelby is making now. I like how Eleanor looked in the movie, and Shelby's look different to me, somehting in the hood I haven't quite been able to put my finger on. The bulge is different or something. That being said, I would love to get my hands on an accurate repro of the movie car

Yep, not next to an original, though. IMO the front end is a little too overdone, and the projector beams don't look right on a car from the '60s. Basically if you put an original Shelby nose on an Eleanor I'd be happy.

You don't have to sit around all day waiting for someone to make a mistake or say something stupid here. Usually a few minutes will do.




HAHA I'm going to use that for my sig!

That's not the ORIGINAL Elenor, but she does look good.

You all know that the "Gone in 60 Seconds" with Nick Cage was a remake, right? The original used one of those early 70's Mach mustangs, yellow, with black racing stripes. Horrid acting, awesome 45 minute chase scene + several shorter ones.

Yep! I saw that li'l flick right when the remake came out! Me and all my car buds rented it and watched it. When it was over we were like, "Ummmmm... that really sucked. But man, those cars were sweet!" It was the typical old car movie/show type where it would hit everything in sight, then the next scene would show a flawless car. I love those shows..mmmm good ol' Dukes o' Hazzard!

Yeah the original is somewhat amusing, I bought it on DVD a year or so ago, think I watched it like once. The guys whole point in making the movie was the destroy as many cars as possible. You should see what the original Eleanor looked like when they were done, it's amazing the thing still drove!
