It’s not quite Eleanor, but it’s worth some serious cash…


Some thieves scored big when they swiped a 1967 Shelby GT500 from the Pearl District in Tulsa, Oklahoma on January 7. Valued at over $200,000 according to the Tulsa Police Department, it’s not just any classic Ford Mustang. Of course, as an enthusiast you probably already know that and so did the thieves.

For what it’s worth, the police in Tulsa are having fun with this one, maybe because they’re bored. When announcing the theft to the public, the official page cracks a Gone In 60 Seconds joke. This Shelby isn’t anything like Eleanor, but they just had to go there. They also reference the crappy 2000 remake and Nicholas Cage, showing whoever is managing the social media accounts has little appreciation of classic car movies. Sad.
