1999 SHELBY SERIES 1 CONVERTIBLE

Details

The Shelby Series 1 is a high-performance roadster, developed, designed and built entirely under Carroll Shelby's direction. This build used modern engineering and materials. The materials in assembling the Shelby Series 1 included high-strength, all-aluminum chassis, modern carbon-fiber bodywork, and a Shelby-modified Oldsmobile Aurora 320-horsepower twin-cam L47 V8 engine. The vehicle features include a folding convertible soft top, power side windows, power steering, power disc brakes,

factory air conditioning and an original radio sound system. This is car number 39 out of the known 249 produced in 1999 and was personally signed by Carroll Shelby. Finished in silver with blue racing stripes it is preserved and original throughout, with 1,320 actual driven miles. The curb weight is only 2,650 lbs. Along with a sleek design, the 50/50 front and rear weight distribution allows the engine power to do 0-60mph in 4.4 seconds and records 12.8 seconds in the quarter-mile, which is 15mph faster than the 427 Shelby Cobra. Unrestricted, Series 1 can reach a top speed of 170mph. In addition to Carroll Shelby's autograph this one-of-a-kind Shelby Series 1 also includes a steering column cover signed by the Build Team at Shelby, a signed Shelby Series 1 jacket, a signed Shelby Series 1 portrait, and the original Owner's Manual.
