Franklin Mint / 1966 Ford Shelby Mustang GT350 / Ltd. Ed. 1,966 / 1:24th scale

Sapphire Blue with White Stripes

NEW! Take one high performance K code Ford Mustang Fastback, give it to Carroll Shelby to tune, and what do you get? An incredibly fast and nimble pony car factory tuned for the race track!

Introduced in 1964, the legendary Shelby GT-350 was created out of a partnership with Ford Motor Company and legendary race car driver, Carroll Shelby. The car was an instant success. Combining blistering speed and incredible styling, the GT-350 set a standard for street racers and track racers alike. In 1965, you could have this car in only one color - white with blue stripes. But by 1966, you could order your GT-350 in one of several colors, and this special Limited Edition model is offered in one of the hottest factory color combos - Sapphire Blue with white stripes.

Each precision replica is hand assembled from more than 200 separate components and packed with authentic details that are the hallmarks of Franklin Mint Precision Models. Every detail of the 306 horsepower 289 V-8 is replicated, right down to the spark plug wires. This model is so realistic, even the hood is made of real fiberglass just like on the original car. Of course, this model also depicts the operating features discriminating collectors expect from a precision engineered diecast model, including operable steering, functional suspension and doors, hood and trunk that open and close.
