"ELEANOR" SHELBY GT500 MOVIE REPLICA MUSTANG JOINS 40TH ANNIVERSARY COBRA TOUR Replica of Famous Movie Car Becomes Part of National Shelby Celebration Officials with the 40th Anniversary Shelby Cobra Tour will give the public an opportunity to experience a Shelby GT500 Mustang replica similar to the one made famous in the recent movie Gone in 60 Seconds by adding the factory-authorized "Eleanor" replica to the traveling show. The Anniversary Tour celebrates the birth of the legendary Shelby Cobra, which won sports car and racing championships worldwide, by giving individuals the opportunity to personally experience fierce Shelby performance cars. "Americans have long had a passion for exciting movies and fast cars," said tour producer Steve Sanderson. "We've been able to secure authorization for this GT500 replica car by Shelby American and the studio vehicle supplier. The car's performance is simply amazing and turns heads wherever we go. It's exciting to add this stunning 'Eleanor' Shelby GT500 replica to our tour." Sanderson Sales & Marketing is an authorized dealer for the authentic Shelby vehicles and the limited edition "Eleanor" GT500 Mustang.

Enthusiasts can sign a 40th birthday card for the Cobra that will be presented to Mr. Shelby at the end of the tour. Over 30 stops are planned during the 2002 celebration of the first Cobra. "The 'Eleanor' Mustang captured the hearts worldwide in the thrilling blockbuster Gone in 60 Seconds," noted Douglas Hasty, a longtime classic car collector who oversees construction of the vehicles. "I was so taken with the car that it became my dream to make it available to everyone by securing a conversion kit from the company that built the movie car. Steve Sanderson's ability to market the car and involve Shelby in the project proved to be a powerful way to let the public know they can own one of these magnificent, and Shelby approved, cars."

Each one of the cars is meticulously built and comes with a certificate of authenticity from the "Eleanor" originator. "The smooth body lines, performance handling and great sounding exhaust of the Shelby tuned V8 make this one of the most recognizable cars in recent history," added Sanderson. "Now anyone can become part of the legend with their very own authentic Shelby vehicle. What could be more thrilling than driving one of these famous limited edition cars?" Cobras are available in big block 427 S/C or 289 small block body styles. Cars can be custom ordered to meet almost any performance or appearance specification, as well as full race configuration.
