“During the 1967 production year, the GT350 would gain a sense of identity, for which it is still aptly known today.” – MustangSpecs.com

The website went on: “After three years in its lightweight, compact form, the Mustang was redesigned to present a larger, more robust appearance for the 1967 model year. This was a fact that applied to all Shelby derived Mustangs as well. In its new form, the 1967 Shelby GT350 carried a hulking 'broad in the shoulders' appearance, which looked noticeably more aggressive than cars from the prior two years of production.”

“Of all Shelby series Mustangs, the 1967 GT350 is perhaps the most easily recognizable, as its aggressive styling exuded a look of unabated performance. The redesigned GT350 now sported extended front and rear fascia, as well as an extended fiberglass hood. The GT350 was also fitted with two 7-inch driving lights, located at each end of its grille, though some cars were actually delivered with these lights positioned close together toward the center of the GT350's grille.”

Offered here is an extremely impressive tribute to the iconic 1967 Shelby Mustang GT350

by the highly respected technicians and builders at MotorCity Grind of Royal Oak, Michigan. The car has traveled just 323 miles since the work was completed in April of this year. (A full listing of the car's upgraded and traditional features appears nearby.) From its perfectly executed Brittany Blue, white-striped exterior, to comfort upgrades including air conditioning, power from a 408-cubic-inch V8, upgraded suspension, and a host of other present-day additions, this beautifully resto-modded example is simultaneously true to the historic model while offering substantially improved performance, reliability, safety, handling, and comfort fit for everyday use. Who says you can't have it all?

The exterior paint and trim is simply outstanding. The iconic metallic blue color and white-stripe presentation is flawlessly executed. (To best assess the quality of the paint and trim finishes, be sure to view the close-up photographs of the car in the accompanying gallery.) All factory Shelby badging is properly in place and in as-new condition. All correct body panels—including the fiberglass hood, side air intakes, properly notched rear valance, and rear-deck-edge spoiler—are in place. The stripes are perfectly aligned and applied, notably on the lower-front and rear body panels. Chrome hood pins—and indeed all chrome bright bits on the body—are pristine. Lighting lenses—including on the front-center driving lights and sequential taillights—are perfectly clear. No original-equipment item or styling cue is missing. Getting the smallest details right is an important criterion for a truly faithful, highest-level tribute execution, and that standard is met beautifully here. Custom GT9 17-inch wheels with correct Shelby-emblem center caps are mounted with BFGoodrich® g-force Sport Comp2 235/45 performance tires.

Inside, the level of execution is equally remarkable. A black deluxe interior includes correct door panels; black horizontally pleated upholstery with vented center panels and chrome trim on the seat backs on the front bucket and (foldable) rear bench seats; black cabin carpeting; and correct headliner. The wood-rimmed, brushed-metal-trimmed, 3-spoke sport steering wheel with correct Shelby center emblem fronts a stock-appearing dashboard and complete instrument cluster. VintageAir® air-conditioning controls and vents (in the correct factory design) are perfectly integrated. An upgraded Pioneer® audio head unit is mounted in the factory-radio location above added SW® gauges monitoring engine oil pressure and electrical output. Brushed-metal trim and a correct Shelby GT350 emblem complete the dash. (Controls for the Holley Sniper® electronic fuel injection system are mounted inside the glove box.) The shifter for the Tremec® TKO 600 5-speed manual gearbox is properly floor mounted on the transmission tunnel.

Under the hood (with hinges and hood latch mechanism properly painted black), the 408-cubic-inch/6.7-liter V8 from TriStar Engines (https://www.tristarengines.com) is resplendent in chrome and unfinished billet aluminum. Chrome shock-tower braces, an aluminum radiator, and billet-aluminum engine hardware all add to the impressive view. Seen from below, the car's perfectly turned-out chassis is absolutely spotless. Focal points include the custom exhaust headers and 2.5-inch full-length dual-exhaust system with crossover x-pipe, lower engine surfaces, Ford 9-inch rear end, Wilwood® 4-wheel power disc brakes, rack-and-pinion power steering, and front coil-over suspension components.

The car's factory VIN appears on a properly riveted Shelby American tag.

While the more than 155 high-definition photographs and the short walk-around-and-startup video available on the GarageKeptMotors website showcase this '67 Shelby GT350 Tribute in detail from every angle, including from below, we expect and encourage in-person inspections at our Grand Rapids, Michigan showroom.

Truly a best-of-both-worlds opportunity—classic originality and present-day safe and reliable performance—this Shelby Tribute offers advantages no original example can offer. Not least of those advantages is avoiding being locked away in a storage building. The updated performance, safety, and comfort features on this beautiful automobile mean its next very lucky owner will be able to enjoy it fully where Carroll Shelby intended… out on the road.
