The Red Shelby GLHS - - - has a new owner!

I have been officially initiated into the Lucore Church of Bad Decisions! Another project car? What was I thinking? Staying true to my genre, I picked up an '87 Dodge Shelby with an interesting history! No plans for a race car, just a fun little 5 speed turbo! Welcome to the new journey!
There is also a video on Lucore's channel on the day we picked it up. There is a lot of speculation and doubt about it being a real Shelby GLHS and of course I referred them to this video for the backstory.
However, here is the link to the Turbododge.com forum where we found the history of this particular car. www.turbododge.com/threads/th...

    I'm here for the GLHS goodness!!! I have GLHS #754 as well as a standard 87 Shelby (non-GLHS). I've seen/read about the elusive red GLHS for a while now. I'm excited to see this thing come alive!

I have always wanted to get another one of them if I could find one in good shape. Anyway that's a cool car and can't wait to see you get it going.

I’ve been into these cars since they were new, and still enjoy driving them. They’re just fun!! I own a 86 GLHS, 86 Shelby Charger with the old DC intercooler kit, and a 88 Shelby Z.

    Great project car. I've owned a GLHS for over 20 years now. The condition of mine was very similar to yours when I bought the car. I would check the forward frame rails for corrosion. I had to replace both of them along with the forward floorboards. Hopefully they are ok, but it can be a trouble area for these cars. Good luck, I'm really looking forward to seeing the restoration!

    I had a Plymouth Horizon back in the early 90's. I think it was '84 or '85 and blew a head gasket. Was going to cost $500+ to fix it and didn't have the money at the time, so it went to a scrap yard eventually.

    Its a Turbo 1 car. I would not have an intercooler. You have a draw trough intake setup meaning the throttle body is mounted on the inlet side of the compressor housing. Plenty of intake manifolds out there if you would like to add the intercooler.
