As a true Shelby Fan Eleanor is an amazing powerful machine 427 and so much handling the awareness that this car brings up to the experience totally fan and unbelievable awesome feeling loving it all day long thanks guys. Made. My day an more exciting to love her 💕
Man...wazzup with all the "HATERS" out there? It is what it is O.K.? It's absolutely stunning in every sense of the word and I'm sorry that both you and me don't have $280K laying around to buy one. Being licensed keeps things real and well worth the money.
Some haters in these comments. This is a dope ride. Seen the movie dozens of times. Respect what these guys are doing. Sure, could be critical of some things, but I’m into this. Sounds amazing and looks amazing, seems like it’s fun to drive.
Shawn, I would love to own one of these cars. Hell! However, by the time I got it to Canada it would probably cost around $400,000 plus duty, rate of exchange etc. To lighten the car even more it might be awesome to see full carbon fiber doors as an option. They could even use sound deadner to give it that nice closing door sound. The interior part of the doors, and jams, may even be fully exposed carbon fiber (like the trunk edges) with billet chrome and leather accents on the panels. The artistic side of my brain is working overtime again.
Strangely enough I've never been a fan of Eleanors. I understand the draw to them but I'd prefer to have a one off custom or restomod for the money. Great video as always!
No I never thought they looked good either... And I normally like Shelby things but on a mustang of that model year I just like it lean without the body kit and the color is here or there. I thought the movie was a flop so why did it stick around become such a cultural icon?
Nice car, glad to see you do one of the 'proper' ones. The Eleanor from the 2000 rendition of Gone in 60 Seconds is definitely a love it or hate it car as is the movie with car enthusiasts but for me it is one of my all time favorites. It looks like they have a really nice product. And that sound, it really does sound like the car in the movie: I've seen the ending at least 100 times and the sound really does match the movie. I don't deny it likely takes near that money for a quality to shop to build one of these cars including the LABOR but that is still a HUGE chunk of change no matter how you look at it as it is still a Mustang at the end of the day, plus, they are building several of the same car meaning they are stamping out the same body panels in bulk numbers; it is not like it is a one off custom where every detail is a design of its own. While the cost of quality labor is what it is, there are probably ways to trim the cost down some in terms of the hard parts like the use of carbon fiber which I personally wouldn't "need" or want exposed on a 60's era muscle car as I think it's more fitting on something like a European exotic but to each their own. I have to imagine that you are also paying for that licensed name too. Speaking of which, the company Classic Recreations has been putting out these cars for a long time too including variants of it, BTW, and I believe a while back they also claimed to be the "one and only true Eleanor." Going on their website just now, though, it appears that may have changed but I haven't followed all the logistics around the rights to that name as many have been commenting here about.
Absolutely stunning. World of wheels is this weekend here in KC. Can't wait to go and see what bitchin rides are there this year. Great vid again Shawn
Cool car, indeed. I'd still opt for a 427 GT40 or Cobra from Superformance. In this price range it's all about what you really dig and there are very cool choices if you have the bread to make it happen.
The owners (or bullies?) of the Eleanor copyright send cease and desist letters to anyone they find with a Mustang who dares to name their car Eleanor. And these builders are enabling the bullies by acquiescing and paying the bullies royalties. If you let the bullies bully you, you get more bullies. How about just not naming the car Eleanor?
Pretty much my thoughts. I sadly had to eye roll the FUCK every time I heard "official", imma like, how much did it cost to say that and is there ANY other reason besides monetary reasons? (build quality is NOT one either, many people have high-end build quality)...
@@English2Elvish it's the world's most expensive vanity license plate. It reminds me of that pretentious punk on TV that got calf implants. He's so worried about what people think, and doesn't realize everyone's laughing at him.
That's what happens when someone owns the rights to something. At the same time if they didn't than why would they bother paying for the rights in the first place?

Definitely a ‘grail’. These guys did an amazing job hats off to his whole team.
They really nail this build in all respects. And the drive was simply exceptional
Man...wazzup with all the "HATERS" out there? It is what it is O.K.? It's absolutely stunning in every sense of the word and I'm sorry that both you and me don't have $280K laying around to buy one. Being licensed keeps things real and well worth the money.
It would be so sick to experience a ride in this baby girl.😎🤘🏼
Some haters in these comments. This is a dope ride. Seen the movie dozens of times. Respect what these guys are doing. Sure, could be critical of some things, but I’m into this. Sounds amazing and looks amazing, seems like it’s fun to drive.
Shawn, I would love to own one of these cars. Hell! However, by the time I got it to Canada it would probably cost around $400,000 plus duty,
rate of exchange etc. To lighten the car even more it might be awesome to see full carbon fiber doors as an option. They could even use sound
deadner to give it that nice closing door sound. The interior part of the doors, and jams, may even be fully exposed carbon fiber (like the trunk
edges) with billet chrome and leather accents on the panels. The artistic side of my brain is working overtime again.
Sounds sweet
That’s an awesome build the quality is next to perfect 👌
It really is and the drive was exceptional imo
Your very fortunate to drive such nice cars.Hopefully one day when I finish my Mustang you can give your opinion of mine
Strangely enough I've never been a fan of Eleanors. I understand the draw to them but I'd prefer to have a one off custom or restomod for the money. Great video as always!
You could and you could get it done for a lot less. One could have themselves a really nice example for 50K.
No I never thought they looked good either... And I normally like Shelby things but on a mustang of that model year I just like it lean without the body kit and the color is here or there.
I thought the movie was a flop so why did it stick around become such a cultural icon?
@@PACKERMAN2077 Because everyone can see it's such a beautiful car
@@CryptoElliott yeah much better than the original
@@americanosbadassius9292 Not a chance.
If i could ever afford it(which i can never) I would take one from your workshop and firm. Absolutely great work! Well done. 1 of many Dream cars!
Nice car, glad to see you do one of the 'proper' ones. The Eleanor from the 2000 rendition of Gone in 60 Seconds is definitely a love it or hate it car as is the movie with car enthusiasts but for me it is one of my all time favorites. It looks like they have a really nice product. And that sound, it really does sound like the car in the movie: I've seen the ending at least 100 times and the sound really does match the movie. I don't deny it likely takes near that money for a quality to shop to build one of these cars including the LABOR but that is still a HUGE chunk of change no matter how you look at it as it is still a Mustang at the end of the day, plus, they are building several of the same car meaning they are stamping out the same body panels in bulk numbers; it is not like it is a one off custom where every detail is a design of its own. While the cost of quality labor is what it is, there are probably ways to trim the cost down some in terms of the hard parts like the use of carbon fiber which I personally wouldn't "need" or want exposed on a 60's era muscle car as I think it's more fitting on something like a European exotic but to each their own. I have to imagine that you are also paying for that licensed name too. Speaking of which, the company Classic Recreations has been putting out these cars for a long time too including variants of it, BTW, and I believe a while back they also claimed to be the "one and only true Eleanor." Going on their website just now, though, it appears that may have changed but I haven't followed all the logistics around the rights to that name as many have been commenting here about.
I don’t know how to add photos from my camera roll to this post. If I work it out I’ll post a couple of photos
That looks and sounds fantastic and you guys forgot the flatbed jump on the test drive, lol.
Absolutely stunning. World of wheels is this weekend here in KC. Can't wait to go and see what bitchin rides are there this year. Great vid again Shawn
Thanks and hopefully you see some great rides there!!
Heaven!
Hi back to you! And yes this car is heaven to me as well
The car of my dream beautiful car classic 🙌.
Through Dynacorn you can get a 67 or 8 mustang fastback body. From there you could probably build your own car
Holy fuck, use punctuation
Dreams dummy
All I have for this is WOW! It truly is a legend.
Cool car, indeed. I'd still opt for a 427 GT40 or Cobra from Superformance. In this price range it's all about what you really dig and there are very cool choices if you have the bread to make it happen.
I hear ya and probably would do the same but this Eleanor is amazing build quality and the drive is exceptional
@@AutotopiaLA where can I purchase a Elenore at ?
Just another kick -ass car on a Kick-Ass Channel !
Thanks Very Cool !
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the compliment here 👊
The owners (or bullies?) of the Eleanor copyright send cease and desist letters to anyone they find with a Mustang who dares to name their car Eleanor. And these builders are enabling the bullies by acquiescing and paying the bullies royalties.
If you let the bullies bully you, you get more bullies. How about just not naming the car Eleanor?
Pretty much my thoughts. I sadly had to eye roll the FUCK every time I heard "official", imma like, how much did it cost to say that and is there ANY other reason besides monetary reasons? (build quality is NOT one either, many people have high-end build quality)...
@@English2Elvish it's the world's most expensive vanity license plate. It reminds me of that pretentious punk on TV that got calf implants. He's so worried about what people think, and doesn't realize everyone's laughing at him.
That's what happens when someone owns the rights to something. At the same time if they didn't than why would they bother paying for the rights in the first place?
@@user-ge2qn6gp4o B is for Build had a car they were building, far from these, in their garage, taken from them for using the name in a youtube video... it can go too far.
One of the amazing creations of this world :)
I just cant get over the fact that this is a roush replica meant to look like Eleanor and not a shelby replica like it should be
Go baby! Great video!
Thank you!!
Iconic. Legendary!
