1/25 Revell 1970 Shelby GT500 85-4563 NEW RELEASE!

Overview

From 1965 through 1968, Carroll Shelby’s crew reworked Ford Mustangs to produce the legendary Shelby GT-350 and GT-500. Production of the Shelby-tweaked Mustangs transferred to Ford for 1969, and the aggressive styling was wilder than ever. But performance was no better than a cheaper Mustang, and at the end of ’69 nearly 800 cars remained unsold. To create the 1970 Shelby GTs, the leftover ’69s were given new serial numbers under FBI supervision, a pair of black racing stripes were added to the hood, and a chin spoiler was bolted under the front bumper. A total of 789 cars were converted, and they marked the end of the original Shelby Mustang era.

Kit Features:

• For the first time, Revell’s Shelby GT 500 can be built as a 1970 model with a newly tooled front spoiler and an all-new decal sheet with the signature hood stripes. The builder can also choose to build a 1969 Shelby GT 500 by simply omitting those items.
• Highly detailed 428 Cobra Jet V-8 engine with a four-speed manual transmission.
• Detailed interior and chassis.
• Optional street machine version runs dual quads on a high-rise intake and racing custom wheels.
• Molded in white, transparent red, and clear with chrome plated parts and soft black tires.
