My uncle has the same car same color but real he bought new it has 345,000 miles on it now. Each one of his kid's drove it to college.
I drove it when I was 12 and probably the only one that washed it back then

Hello Andy,
That's very cool indeed! Before I became a Mopor guy back in the 1980's I owned several AMC, GM and Ford muscle cars including a 1965 Mustang hardtop and two 1967 Mustang fastbacks, so I still have a soft spot in my heart for the 1965 through 1968 Mustangs.
Below are pictures of a real car similar to what the model was fashioned after. The major difference is that the real car is an automatic and the model is a 4 speed.

Did your uncle order the car from Shelby brand new? If so, he could have ordered the street version with a roll bar, as Shelby would build them any way the customer wanted them.

Hey Andy, that's ok, I'll just post a couple of pictures of similar cars in 1/18th scale!

The only "newer" car I would own if I didn't have mine!
