The Showstopper of Montana's Classic Car Auction.
The Montana Classic Car Auction is no stranger to stunning vehicles, but the 2021 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 promises to be a showstopper at this year's 11th annual event. Don't let the "classic car" label fool you—this modern marvel encapsulates cutting-edge performance and sleek design.
Beyond Horsepower: Unlocking the GT500's Potential
Though all Shelby GT500s are exceptional, this one goes beyond the usual prowess. What makes this GT500 distinct is its Carbon Fiber Track Pack, a series of upgrades that push its performance to the limit:
Supercharged Predator 5.2L V-8 engine with 760 horsepower
20-inch carbon-fiber wheels
Aerodynamic enhancements
Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires
Weight-saving modifications
A Rare Gem: One of the Few "Golden Ticket" Cars
Amidst supply chain shortages, fewer than 5,000 GT500s rolled off the production line in 2021. Of those, only about 1,700 featured the Carbon Fiber Track Pack. Even more exclusive, an estimated 39% were optioned with deleted stripes, creating what are now known as "Golden Ticket" cars. This particular GT500, VIN 1FA6P8SJ2M5503246, is among these exclusive ranks.
