This 15-minute video is a treat for any Shelby fan. Because not only is the original Mustang GT350 detailed, there's also a fabulous GT40 prototype and early Cobras too. The latter almost makes whitewall tyres look cool...
Understandably given the initial success of the Cobras, Carroll Shelby comes across as confident and assured throughout the film. We see the first GT350s in assembly in the same factory as the GTs. In terms of racing significance the latter of course ranks higher but with a new track-focused Mustang exciting so many at present the 350 looks fantastic.
It gets better too. Testing for the Mustang involves Willow Springs, three pro drivers plus the Cobra and the GT at the same time. On top of one of the finest V8 noises you'll ever hear (even with 60s video quality), there's also some instruction on how best to drive Willow Springs.
Yes, it's quite long as a Time For Tea? (and some sections do drag) but it's really worth watching it all if possible. Make two cups perhaps.
[Yes, yes, the lead image isn't from the video but once you've seen the quality you'll see why there isn't a screengrab!]
