  • Shelby American to end production of 40th Anniversary and 427 Super Snake GT500 post title packages
  • 427 package commemorates Las Vegas race with up to 750 horsepower and other enhancements

LAS VEGAS – August 31, 2010 - Executives with Shelby American, a wholly owned subsidiary of Carroll Shelby International Inc. (CSBI:PK), have announced that the company is nearing completion of its Shelby GT500 40th Anniversary and 427 Super Snake packages. The company will schedule completion for these two popular post title programs by the end of 2010. Customers can order the few remaining packages until they are sold out. Shelby American still offers its Super Snake, GT350 and Terlingua Racing Team vehicle packages, as well as the authentic Shelby Cobra.

"These Shelby GT500 packages have been very popular with Shelby owners, and have always been planned for limited production," said John Luft, president of Shelby American. "Exclusivity, Value and Substance are hallmarks of the Shelby brand and closing out these two packages in December will maximize the value of these Shelby cars for customers over the long term."

The 427 Super Snake commemorates Shelby's sponsorship of the Las Vegas NASCAR race. The package is installed by Shelby American at its Las Vegas facility to a customer's 2007-2010 GT500. In addition to the equipment offered with the standard Super Snake, this package includes:

  • Blower badge on 725 - 750 HP version
  • Trunk and floor mats
  • Sun visor signed by Carroll Shelby noting 427 special edition
  • Special seat inserts
  • Certificate of authenticity

  • Shelby/Eibach coil over suspension and sway bar kit
  • 20' Shelby American Racing Razor wheels in special black with Shelby center caps
