Every once in a while, e all have to do a bit of Spring cleaning. Pretty much every enthusiast remembers when the GM Heritage Center decided to cull its 1,000 plus car collection by roughly 25%. Less memorable perhaps is the 2014 relocation of Shelby American and the subsequent downsizing of that company's collection. Simply put: Shelby moved its operations into a smaller building and decided to sell a number of show cars to dedicated enthusiasts. That's how one enterprising gearhead ended up with this killer GTS Wide Body Prototype. Backing supercharged Coyote power with six forward gears, his spotless coupe takes everything great about premium pony car performance and wraps it in the first application of Shelby wide body aesthetics for the 2010-era Mustang. If you enjoy unique collector cars that mix incredible provenance with unmatched exclusivity, ou're looking at your next classic!

BODYWORK/TRIM

Stretching glossy Grabber Blue 2-stage between clean racing stripes, culpted sheetmetal and sinister Shelby call-outs, his spotless Mustang has obviously seen meticulous care since new. Like most of our low-mileage, actory-fresh pieces, ts body presents as new in every conceivable way. That body's shiny, et-look panels are 100% straight with no history of accidents or damage of any kind. And a close look down the car's muscular fuselage reveals hand-tailored finishing that's considered world-class by any standard.

Like most Shelby bolt-ons, he firm's Wide Body Kit is meant to turn Ford's definition of good into the enthusiast's definition of great. At the front of this mean mare, patent GTS valance hangs a billet, ustang-branded grille between clear halogen headlamps. At the top of that grille, n aggressive GTS hood flows to color-keyed mirrors and chip-free glass. At the sides of that hood, -inch widened fenders hang traditional "POWERED BY FORD" emblems above remodeled, olor-keyed rockers. At the back of those rockers, -inch widened quarters host a Shelby billet fuel filler. And at the back of the car, custom valance founds factory Ford taillights between bold trunk lettering, GTS faux fuel filler and polished Shelby exhaust tips.

ENGINE

Featuring no shortage of power thanks to Ford's buttery smooth Coyote V8, his exclusive tuner car utilizes a Ford Racing supercharger to turn "scary fast" into "white-knuckle tight". That polished whipple makes good use of traditional cold air induction, hich marries a clean, eusable filter element with a slick carbon fiber oxygen tube. At the sides of the engine, ubtle "POWERED BY FORD" coil covers combine with an array of Shelby caps and fluid reservoirs to dress things up a bit. Aesthetically, he spotless mill features a typical OEM-level appearance that displays hardly any signs of usage. And when you twist the eager engine's key, ou become the lead composer of a veritable orchestra of sinister whines and octane-fueled roars!

DRIVETRAIN/SUSPENSION

As most performance car fans already know, his Mustang's SVT-tuned suspension is nothing short of excellent. And with a few choice bolt-ons, t transforms into a track-ready beast. The upgrades begin with sturdy Shelby subframe connectors and progress to beefy rear springs, thick rear sway bar and tough Shelby control arms. A slick-shifting Tremec TR6060 6-speed hangs between a trick Shelby cooler and familiar Ford axle that's capped by a cool Ford Racing inspection cover. At the corners of the car, helby/Wilwood calipers squeeze drilled and slotted rotors behind requisite Shelby brake ducts. Turns come courtesy of Ford's super-efficient power-assisted steering. Exhaust flows through large-diameter pipes to an X-shaped crossover and rowdy Borla mufflers. And all that first class agility rolls on forged Shelby wheels, hich spin 255/35ZR20 Michelin Pilot Super Sports in front of 345/30ZR20 Michelin Pilot Super Sports.

INTERIOR

Behind the doors, rench-stitched seats found "GTS" branded hides on heavy bolstering and factory power adjustment for the car's driver. The dash is a familiar Mustang layout that hangs slick satin trim between Auto Meter pillar gauges and retro instrumentation. Below that instrumentation, crisp Shaker stereo provides sonic entertainment. Below that stereo, sequential Shelby plaque leads a short-throw shifter that's embedded in a clean console. Beneath that console, ich carpet flows past metal-trimmed foot pedals to clean Mustang sill plates and chiseled door panels. In front of the driver, stitched and trimmed steering wheel features convenient thumb buttons for audio, luetooth and standard Cruise Control. And naturally, ll the luxuries you'd expect in high dollar modern muscle are ready and waiting including: power windows, ower door locks, ower mirrors and Remote Keyless Entry.
