Over the past couple years, Oklahoma-based Classic Recreations has made a name for itself with various iterations of the Shelby GT500, starting with licensed Eleanor replicas (http://www.autoblog.com/2009/10/19/eleanor-1967-ford-mustang-shelby-gt500-review/) and moving on to the Shelby GT500CR (http://www.autoblog.com/2010/02/25/classic-recreations-shelby-gt500cr-shows-its-face-in-las-vegas/) continuation cars including the most recent Venom version (http://www.autoblog.com/2011/05/05/classic-recreations-unleashes-shelby-gt500cr-venom/).
It looks like Classic Recreations will be branching out, if you can call it that, with a new model. The company has posted a new rendering of a GT350CR based on the 1965-1966 Mustang Fastback on its web site. Following the same theme as the other Classic Recreation cars, the GT350CR combines classic styling with modern amenities such as rack and pinion steering, coilover suspension and disc brakes. Each car also features a 545-horsepower, 427-cubic-inch V8 and plenty of authentic Shelby Performance Parts. No word on when the cars will be first delivered to customers, but Classic Recreations is currently taking order with a starting asking price of $119,000.
