The 40th Anniversary Limited Edition package includes a host of components to let others know that something special is prowling the streets. On the menacing outside components include carbon fiber lower front fascia splitter and mirror covers; aluminum hood grille inserts; deck lid SHELBY letter kit; sequential tail lamps; front and rear brake duct kits; Anniversary stripe package (convertible models); special 20” American Racing Shelby Razor wheels and various 40th Anniversary badging including side, grille and trunk badges.

Inside there is a consecutively numbered dash plaque, special 40th Anniversary Shelby door sill plates with consecutive number; floor mats; Shelby snake door handles; center dash mounted gauge cluster with three Carroll Shelby/Autometer carbon fiber gauges (boost, oil and fuel pressure); 40th Anniversary arm rest cover and for convertibles a light bar with solenoid activated light system.

The engine bay receives a consecutive number plate authenticating the package and installation from SAI and special billet aluminum caps and covers for power steering, radiator, brake master cylinder, windshield washer fluid bottle and oil dip stick.

Backing it up:
With 500 horsepower out of the gate, the Shelby GT500 can run like no other pony that ever grazed a field. The 40th Anniversary Package ups the ante with additional power by utilizing the Shelby Signature Borla exhaust system. The cat-back system is designed to maximize power and give a nice robust “big-block” sound.

Getting the power to the ground is one thing. Being able to utilize what you want when going into the corners is another. One key element to the 40th Anniversary package is the new Shelby/Eibach suspension upgrade for GT500. This new coil over systems allows for adjustability for both straight line and road course tracks. The new spring/shock combination lowers the front a maximum of 0.8-inch and the rear 1.6-inches for a very aggressive appearance and lower center of gravity. In addition bigger anti-way bars are included for reduced body roll. The result is flat precise cornering without a harsh ride.

Looks pretty good BUTT knowing the dealers it'll be outrageously priced (again) unless you're a lucky bastad as our David :mrgreen: and get a MSRP deal.

I would NOT spend $ 55K or more for a Mustang, Shelby or not !

:rll: :rll: MSRP?? It was more like D-plan:mrgreen: ..this package is not offered to dealer only to current owners ...

I MAY be able to hook you up for A Coupe for around 48k..not sure when ? It would be with my dealer here in Dallas for A 08...

Wasn't it the 40th anniversary that Ford gave each new Special high performance Mustang owner a box with a large leather bound book of the Ford history, a leather case for the owners manual, a Ford Watch, a Key Fob, and letter from Ford? The reason I ask is a friend of mine bought one of those special Mustangs and totaled it before he received the gift box from Ford. He gave the gift box to me.

Thanks for the info Jim,

Boy that must have been some disagreement to be knocked off the POA site. I'm sure that is a interesting story. It seems people from both sides seem so nice, and helpful.

someone should post the link to that stupidly idiotic thread that got a group of us knocked off. All because we defended our friend Nancy and simply QUESTIONED why?

Roger Waring

I don't know the history, but it is sad. You all on both sides seem to be a great bunch of people, with the very same interests. I'm still kind of new to the Prowler. I have owned Corvettes, Street Rods, Mustangs, and of course MOPARS. I have been in and joined many of the clubs over the years. I must say it seems the friendship I have seen on this site, and the POA is far better than in other clubs. I hope to meet many of you in the up coming summer.

DavidN -

I've visited the Shelby facility in Las Vegas. It's across the street from the Speedway. It's very impressive. When I was last there I watched them assemble the Black / Gold Hertz (GTH?) Specials. Visit when you get a chance.
