1967 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Named ‘Most Beautiful American Car Made in the 1960s’

By Rachel Schneider – AOL.com

Ford has produced more Mustang variants than most people can count. None of them has ever been called the “most beautiful American car of the 1960s” … except one.

The 1967 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 has earned that distinction, and one look at it makes the stance hard to dispute. Long, aggressive and unmistakably purposeful, the GT500 was not simply a faster Mustang. It was Carroll Shelby’s vision of what a true American performance car could be, and it arrived looking like nothing else on the road.
