The Lineage Continues

The Mustang GTD is the most technologically advanced and performance-focused Mustang ever built but it was born from an extremely radical two-seat mid-engine race car concept from 1962.

The 1966 Shelby GT350H "Hertz Rent-A-Racer" and 2014 Shelby GT500 "Eleanor" homages were specifically built to incorporate the DNA traits and milestones of both the Mustang’s and my history.

This is not just about purchasing another Mustang. It represents something much more.

It is my continuing the lineage that began long before I was born and continues today.
