I want a shelby GT500 exactly like that...! Damn that car looks good

M.Piedlourde · 05-19-2004, 08:57 AM

Heh, you and about a zillion other people.

There are tons of "Eleanor conversion" Mustangs on the auto auction circuit right now.

Steeles · 05-19-2004, 09:02 AM

theres a company that does turnkey Eleanors conversions. price was like 60 grand if YOU found the chassis IIRC

ONYX S-13 · 05-19-2004, 09:42 AM

THANK YOU FOR THAT LINK....I'm not sure to be happy or sad...I don't think I'll ever have one. I can always fantacize about having one *Sigh *

*HaLo* · 05-19-2004, 09:45 AM

It's a lovely car... but with rising gas prices, who would want that?

ONYX S-13 · 05-19-2004, 10:12 AM

It's cool..I'd still want one..I'd just use it every once and a while..I got the 240 for a daily driver.Even though it's gettin pretty expensive to even drive that..I put 20 bucks in there and it just barely got me over a half a tank . I remember the good 'ol days when that used to give me pretty much a full tank.

S14Speed997 · 05-19-2004, 10:23 AM

They had the car from the movie, yes, the actual car at the Tampa auto show last year..With a authentic papers, and a huge action photo...

That thing was supa sexxxy.........!! More people were hovering around that thing than the Enzo..

MakotoS13 · 05-19-2004, 10:59 AM

it's like 30K just for PARTS for the reproduction car.

i was considering a musclecar buildup before going the way of the S13

nocomedown · 05-19-2004, 10:59 AM

there was one of those at the dallas auto show a while back. it had hotness down to an art form.

Woohoo! its your lucky day!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...&category=6465

ONYX S-13 · 05-19-2004, 12:31 PM

I LOVE YOU MAN !! I just found my new background !

Dutchmalmiss · 05-20-2004, 01:56 AM

Omnis · 05-20-2004, 03:31 AM

i know this old dude who has a Gt500. its not like elenor but its still damn cool.

**Phlip** · 05-20-2004, 07:07 AM

Does anyone recall having seen that company that redoes C5 Corvettes to look look like the Mach 5? Speaking of watching things and coming to desire what we are seeing, I was in Best Buy Tuesday and realized that vol. 2 of the speed racer collection (episodes 12-23):

...came out that morning and remembered a few months back someone was telling me that there is a company that basically re-skins a C5 vette with the Mach 5 body. Wouldn't that be some SHIT to see out on the street?

S14Speed997 · 05-20-2004, 07:18 AM

That guy is selling from Tampa/St. Pete, I gotta find this place and get some photos of me "fake drivin" !

The C5 would be hot-hotness!!!!! I would want the Dale Earnhardt/Ron Fellows edition...That was the last race Dale Sr. finished at Daytona, the Rolex 24 and I was there...those things own

Sorry for the thread jack, but I JUST went on a mission to find that site and found it JUST now before coming back to this thread to find you got there first.

**Phlip** · 05-20-2004, 07:47 AM

Holy SHIT, you can get the shooting star too!!!

I'd prefer to have the Mach 5 myself, but WHO is this mysterious Racer X?

Anyway, getting back on topic. Yeah, Eleanor is cool. Nick Cage is kind of a putz in general, but the car in that movie is awesome. And of course, who can forget Angelina Jolie?

Anyone ever seen the anime "Riding Bean"? There's a cool GT500 in it that one of the cops drives. Gets wrecked, unfortunately.

ONYX S-13 · 05-20-2004, 09:44 AM

Racer x's car reminda me of a womans shoe...I don't like it..Waaaayyyy too pointy

Steeles · 05-20-2004, 11:38 AM

I love Riding Bean!!! hahah Great Anime!
