agree no one with this car in decent shape will even think about selling it.

hutchbeartrap22 I talked to an owner in Michigan that was selling his GLH Omni. It was in really good shape too except the engine. I don't know that much about the engine so it wasn't for me.

I have one,GLH-S #113

Saw one of these the OMNI and the other model at the Carroll Shelby Museum in Vegas earlier this year. Definitely wanted to drive that over all the other cars they had there.

Those are hot cars, the old Chrysler Turbo cars. Kazzer's cool too, I used to see him at my gym.

i was in the back of one of those while my dad was driving. a grin slowly approached on his face as he said to my brother "watch this" and pointed to the radio and pressed a button. suddenly i was going very fast. that day i got to see my breakfast for the second time. lol, poetry.

I had a few of these turbo cars from Daytonas to Chargers

Sick. Good stuff, dude.

Kazzer introduces the long overlooked low budget performance sports cars from Carroll Shelbys Chrysler turbo days, the 1986 Shelby GLHS (sedan) and the 1987 Shelby GLHS (coupe) These weren't just Shelby stickered up Chryslers, the GLHS series of cars were taken to Shelbys Whittier CA skunkworks facility where the performance was bumped up all around and limited editions were made.. 1986 GLHS's + 500 total 1987 GLHS's - 1,000 total

I love these cars. But correct me if I'm wrong, but weren't they 174 hp from the factory, not 250?

nice! im building a 2.2 turbo (t1) for my 84 rampage myself, mopar perf computer, mopar perf purple cam, oil pressure relief spring (70 psi) and a GLH transmission! GO BABY GO!

Man Those cars were so underrated and underestimated by lots of ppl They were decent cars that packed some decent punch and got decent mpg's . The omni looks cooler than the charger in my opinion 80s cars still look cool to me I'd get one if I could find one that was still in great shape

I had a '87 Shelby Charger GLHS equipped for racing. It was one of the crappiest cars I've ever driven, it was never anything but a problem. Best day of it's life was the day I sold it for scrap.

They must have stripped it down a lot to get the weight to 1800#. Mine is stock and it weights more than 2400# (still a featherweight by modern standards).

You own Shelby Lancer #001? do you have any videos of it? Stock is not a whole lot of fun anymore. But stock looking is where the fun starts.

@DdgeShelby The other one painted red with black interior, but its whereabouts are currently undetermined.

@ClassicTVMan81 How does this relate? those were just a T1 suck through setup..

They are sweet I will get a Shelby Charger again!

I remember watching this epsode back in high school in 02, I was shocked back then and its still awesome even in todays world it would still eat most hondas off the showroom floor.

@313foxbody420 is it 1800 stock? i have a 89 horizon, i think its 2100ish,

Man I Miss my GLHT. Hard to get one now.

I just checked it out, you can even look him up through Google. One of his tracks was used in the 2003 Italian Job. I believe he was in the one of the last Olympics for Judo also.

@DdgeShelby That bit about them being titled as Dodges meant further that the front-drive 'Cuda never took off, of course the main reason being Shelby's objection to the Plymouth version.

Any ideas if the 2.2 turbo fits the European Horizon?

I wouldn't see why not their are one in the same car omni & horizon are the exact same car mabe stance & rims & tires plus the ground affects kit is the difference in the two cars..

@HachiZenki The cars are easy to find in the non numbered Shelby Dodge versions.. The GLHS cars were pretty low key in terms of graphics..

Everyone that has owned a Shelby knows that the word "Shelby" is on the title. That's cause Carroll Shelby made 'em. Yes even the Dodges....

hell yeah!

I've owned both a Daytona Shelby Z and a GLHS. They got to be too much to take care of, but were twice as fun as nearly anything else I've had. And I think I paid 5k for both of them from a guy who needed the cash.

You can hear the boost when you gun it !

plenty of friends of mine in CA got their 86 S's for 500 or less.. why? blown head gaskets.. cars ranged from a 7-9 out of 10 for condition otherwize.. If your not having head gasket problems, your not boosting much past stock.. ;) either that or your ARP'd, lower compression and cometic gasket equipped. ;

I Owned a Shelby Charger and my roommate a GLH turbo Omni back in the early 90's. They were fun, quick cars back in the day, but that was when 300hp was considered the benchmark of all benchmarks. Owning one today would only be for nostalgic purposes really, you pull up to a stop light next to a Toyota Camry, or any other modern sedan and you wouldn't stand much of a chance. Not like back in the day when you could surprise unsuspecting 5.0 and Z28 owners...

They still have an advantage with the power to weight ratio.

+Chris D. You're right, but the technology in today's cars are able to put most, if not all of the power to the ground, and these cars were notorious for traction loss, especially with mods. So although you may still be relevant in a 1/4 mile situation on a track, the old days of stop light racing is just no longer what it used to be with these older gems.

Do you think modern technology hasn't been applied to these vehicles? I had a Halltech Platinum standalone on mine 5 years ago, went with the T2 style intake/induction setup.. If you have one of these cars, you're not keeping it stock.. Folks have been adapting twin cam heads to the 2.2/2.5 bottom ends for years, they bolt up.

+Chris D. Of course with enough money you can overcome most of the problems I speak of, I was speaking from a near stock with maybe a few basic mods standpoint. I was simply reminiscing how back in the day, like in my case for example (Early 90's) you could hop into one of these cars (completely stock even) and have your way with a vast majority of vehicles out there, my comment was more geared towards the fact that 20 years later, if i still had the SAME car, that's just not going to happen. I guess I could have been more specific, I mean if I dump enough money into a Neon I could make it faster than a Hellcat, but why? I still think these are cool cars, I would not mind having another someday, but I would likely stick my money into making it a bit more reliable if that's at all possible, lol.

Stock the GLH's ran in the 14"s in the quarter mile 300 hp will get you easily in the 13's they don't weight that much a new Camry would get smashed by one of these things nowadays even with the old super 60 setups my friend James Reeves runs a 9.99 @ 143mph in the quarter with his modified GLH and it has full interior and a street car not many 4 cylinder cars run that time and still a street able car "full interior and everything"

He says their easy to find? And Cheap, Right!

You sorta lost me on that. I bought a lightly used GLH-T in the 80's.The previous owner then went a bought a GLHS Omni. I thought all the GLHS cars were T1 bottom end, T2 head-intake- FI, VV turbo, and IC. I threw a few mods at the GLH-T and the guy I bought it from (with the GLHS now) couldnt believe how it run. That guys GLHS really pulled with authority on the big end compared to my modded GLH-T. I could put the hurt on him till about 70, then hed reel me in and start marchin by 100.

If you want to sacrifice performance with a heavy long wheelbase vehicle.. Sure.. ;)

Just tells me you didn't know what you were doin and the car was beat to shit before ya got it.. How exactly was it "equipped for racing?"

Who is kazzer :-p

@tona6g72 Goes Like Hell S'more Thats what the dealership poster says on it..

Yep, both of my Whittier cars are titled Shelby.

This video was uploaded in 2007 and likely made before that by a number of years. These cars are likely gone, outdated and no longer relevant on a performance competition factor. That said, they like will put a smile on your face much more so than most of the modern stuff unless you need sat-nav and don't know how to drive a stick.

look at how many turbo dodges of this era are participating in Drag week and get back to me. ;)

At least it doesn't need to be plugged in ;)

175hp factory, the Omni GLHS in the video 250hp

Guy in the video ;)

the super 60 package ! god damn I had a bunch of those and each one was a little better as I learned tricks and mods ...right around the first fast n furious was when I was into these little cars and smoking 5.0s and worked hondas was a breeze..sure they had thier problems but all were easily overcome with junkyard parts from other chrysler models from minivans to lebarons.. transmissions were weak in the glh so a later model cable shift version was the way to go there..axles from other models were common swap as well as computers from the higher end models. I wouldnt have been able to do it without the great resources on the web at turbododge.com .

@PyroBlonde7777 There's nothing wrong with a clone so you can mod the piss out of it and not worry about killing the collectors value of it.

I WANNA TURN MY OMNI INTO A GLHS

only american car that ive liked/find appealing. not sure why these arent mopre popular even in v8 dominated america

I have a Shelby charger

I know where a very nice 1986 GLH Shelby is being garaged. The owner is a good friend of mine and is considering selling. He's 82 years old (old sports car buff). If anyone is interested, send me a message. Thanks!

@PyroBlonde7777 I don't think making a clone of a car that the majority doesn't know or could give a shit less about would make anyone look like an ass, more of an enthusiast.. The only difference between a "REAL" Shelby and a clone is a few underhood "Shelby Automobile" emissions decals and a dash plaque that any trophy shop could whip up. If anything a "REAL Shelby" wouldn't be what I want to start with to modify because anything done to it would kill the collectors value

L bodies came first. K car would be the "variant" Even though they're really not that similar. So many things wrong with this video. lol

I'm sorry, did I hear him say K car? Those are definitely L bodies.

Anyone that says these cars aren't fun is lying to prove a point.....and is anti-america lol. Fun cars, but now they're hard to find (that's what happens when cheap cars get beat on and aren't loved)

I had a 1984 GLH non turbo car - was a fun car but not very well made

What I'd do is get the Omni GLH, and since it doesn't have an engine you can make a nice hybrid. I'd go 2.5L block, forged internals, Turbo III 16V head, the turbo and the intercooler. Or you could swap in a Neon engine (2.0L SOHC, 2.0L DOHC, 2.4L DOHC, or 2.4L DOHC Turbo)

"easy to find" LOL GTFO

1:24 Cheap, and easy to find... HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHHA NOPE!!!

meh its fwd

stock for stock GLHS > LANCER ;)

This guy can barely get the facts right and contradicts hinself every other second. Either the omni GLHS was a heel aof a ride if you were ever in one
