If you watched the remake of the classic 1974 film, 'Gone in 60 Seconds' released in 2000, you'd remember Eleanor. Eleanor was a 1967 Shelby Mustang GT500 that had her ways with the main character played by Nicholas Cage. Such a beauty.
While at SEMA, guess what I spotted... Eleanor! Of course, I do not believe this to be an original 1967 Shelby Mustang GT500, but more of a fiberglass replica.
I really want one of these...
Even has the 'Go-Baby-Go' button on the shift knob.
These licenced replicas are available to be made for a hefty price by Classic Recreations and are available in two specifications, one 535 hp and one in 750 hp. Although the vehicle is of a classic muscle car frame, it is loaded with high-tech materials and technology. Just visit the links for more specifications of what is available as options and more pictures.
Here are a couple of clips I found. Ooooh, I so want one....

1967...so old. Omg..... this american muscle still look so sexy hahaha
Yeah, old design but it still looks so good!. This is not an original 1967 Shelby Mustang GT500 though. It's a fiberglass replica, that's why I titled it 'Eleanor' but still, it's so so beautiful. It's so expensive to build too. Almost USD200,000. That's just crazy.
Eleanor...still a beauty....i even got the movie inside my laptop,haha...watch it over and over...nice car indeed...
