That ride along was the epitome of visceral. The look, the sound, the rawness & of course...Jim. Hall of Fame. Thx for inspiring.

When I built my 66 GT coupe back in the 80's I weighed and reduced the weight of everything I could, the door weighed 40 lbs empty , with the glass and cranks 75 !! got mine down to 2700 lbs full of fuel. glove box door was about 5 lbs right there. lots of fun, even drilled the brake and clutch pedals. I drove the guy at the town dump crazy as he would weigh my car on the scale every so often, the fun thing was one day at moroso motorsports park I pulled up to the scale and some impatient but nice guys with fox bodies ran the scale for me, they were pretty surprised when the scale read 2650 lbs. kept the car 25 yrs but eventually the cowl rust and otherwise wear and tear on myself made me sell it. still miss it thought.

The old man can shift like you are suppose to shift a car like that. It gives me flashbacks when I was between 17 and 25 years old doing the same thing in some Fords I had back in the day. I've seen young guys that get into a pretty hot car and end up either missing a gear or grinding the shit out of one because they are timid and afraid of shifting it with power or scared they are going to break it. But it's always been about taking control of the throttle and clutch and making it go like you want and need to get somewhere fast. Shift it like you are trying to get away from someone after you stole it.

dude was shifting his ass off...great video!

My first car was a 65 fastback 289 high performance. Many things were done to this car by a mechanic who knew his stuff. I did not know much about it at that time but it was a riot to drive. It was surprisingly fast and gave no quarter when put to task. The time I had it was 1970 and those were the days. You are fortunate to be there where these repros are made. Gone to heaven.

For those net experts who point to the first gen Mustang's lack of IRS as proof that the European car makers were ahead of the tech game in the 60s, they don't know what they're talking about. Ford DID have an IRS ready to go for the Mustang. As Mr. Marietta points out, there was no business reason to offer the IRS, since Ford was selling every Mustang they could build with the solid rear axle. Great vid, BTW. That engine sounds fantastic.

There is no sound to equal a properly built Ford at full song. God Bless the OVC Crew.😎

I'm all about Chevy..but after seeing this and hearing that vintage motor sound I could say that I appreciate the Ford mustang and the history of the car.you don't hear that sound to often anymore. Thanks A.T.LA.

love the opening scene, you can literally see how that gentleman is taken back in time and reliving his youth as he's stepping on it and trashing it. those throttle blips also, he clearly likes his revv-matching. another awesome and fun presentation right there! shout out to you Shawn and the entire AutotopiaLA crew from cold and rainy germany all the way to sunny and warm California. :-)

How incredible is must be to have been part of Shelby’s operation from the beginning. But to have that in your history AND then be part of this rebirth of the cars? That’s got to be mind blowing. The kind of stuff all us car junkies wish we could have experienced. I love the fact that they’ve done just a couple updates like the IRS and the rear window shape only because they are true to what was intended for the car. You’ve got one helluva cool job Shawn, thanks for sharing!

My ultimate dream car, what a complete beast of a Shelby Mustang....

You were blown away and speechless. For many, this car would bring them to tears and clearly, the OVC are among them. I can feel it from here. Fucking incredible!

@gibsondrummer - I'm not endorsing his fast trip, but that's the way it was done in those days. These less than knowledgeable kids today think street racing is something new that the Japanese invented. No, it's a little older than that! 1960s on the Berlin Turnpike in Newington, Connecticut, it was the public road version of Conn. Dragway! Even saw a rail dragster do a quick between the lights run, then duck into a garage and shut down quickly before the "man" showed up to spoil all the fun. Trust me, those were the days to be a teenager in America!

Hey I get it. Meeting icons in metal and in person is trippy and memorable. I got to meet David Saville-Peck (R.I.P) a Can-Am driver of the same era who happen to be a really cool guy. I was able to see he shop where he was working on a race spec Chaterham 7 with his Son. He asked me if I wanted a spin in a street version and I agreed without giving it a though. I had to reset my brain to accept what I was seeing. This car was soooo much faster than anything else on 4 wheels. Cornering was hard enough to mildly bruise ribs and braking would tell you right away if your seat belt wasn't tight enough.
