Well, lemme tell ya about this car, this 1967 Shelby GT500 Eleanor. That’s a mouthful, ain’t it? I seen pictures of it, and my oh my, it’s somethin’ else. Shiny and fancy, like them cars in the movies. You know, I always liked a good movie car.
This here 1967 Shelby, they call it the Eleanor. Now, I don’t know who Eleanor is, but she must be someone special to get a car named after her. Or maybe it’s the car that’s special, named after the lady. Anyways, this car, it ain’t your regular Ford, no sir. It’s one of them Shelby GT500s. They say them words, GT500, like it’s somethin’ real important. And I reckon it is.
They say this Eleanor GT500, it’s from 1967. That’s a long time ago. Back then, things were different. Cars were different. But even then, this Shelby was somethin’ special. They only made a few of ’em, not like today where they make cars like they’re makin’ cookies, just pumpin’ ’em out.
- This 1967 Shelby GT500, it’s a real looker.
- They say it’s worth a lot of money, more than I’ve ever seen.

Now, if you want one of these 1967 Shelby GT500 Eleanor cars, you better have deep pockets. They say they go for a pretty penny. I heard someone say somethin’ about $154,000, maybe more. Can you believe that? For a car! That’s more than a house costs in some places, more than my whole house and land put together. Another fella sold his for over $500,000, that’s half a million. Goodness gracious!
Some other folks say that another version of this here Ford, the Ford Shelby Mustang Eleanor, costs around $231,348. Lord have mercy, that’s a lot of money. I reckon you could buy a whole farm for that much. Maybe two farms!
And get this, they made these Eleanor cars for a movie. I heard they made eleven or maybe twelve of ’em. Most of ’em were just shells, you know, just for looks. But three of ’em, they were the real deal. They could drive and everything. Imagine that, a movie car that’s a real car too.
They put special things on these cars, they call ’em body kits. I don’t know what those are but they sound fancy. They made it look like the Shelby GT500. They say there were eleven of these cars built with the body kits. They were inspired by the Shelby GT500. Sounds like a lot of work to make a car look like another car.
I seen some folks sellin’ cars they say are like this 1967 Shelby Eleanor. Some of them are cheap, just a few thousand dollars. Some say 7 dollars even. I don’t know if I believe that. Seems too good to be true. But they say you can get approved for a loan, right on your phone. Can you imagine? Buyin’ a car on your phone. Times sure have changed.
If you’re lookin’ for an old car, this 1967 Shelby GT500 Eleanor might be the one for you. But like I said, you better have a lot of money saved up. It ain’t a cheap car, that’s for sure. This Eleanor, it’s a special car. One of a kind, you might say. A real piece of history.
This here Shelby GT500, it’s a powerful car. Lots of horsepower, they say. I don’t know much about horsepower, but I know it means it goes fast. Real fast. Faster than anything I’ve ever seen. It is old, so you may want to find an old car for sale. They say you can find useful information about those cars online now.
