1967 Ford Mustang “Eleanor”

Last updated on September 5, 2021

Today’s car is Eleanor!!!  It’s one of the custom 1967 Mustang Shelby GT500 clones known as Eleanor that were used in the production of the 2000 blockbuster “Gone in 60 Seconds.”  Eleven identical cars were built for the production of the film by Cinema Vehicle Services from a collaborative design by hot rod legends Steve Stanford and Chip Foose.  Of those, just three authentic cars are known to still exist, while countless replicas have been created over the years.
The Ford Mustang from Steve Mc Queen’s Bullitt may have stolen the headlines with its record $3.74 million auction price, but another movie Mustang 1967 Mustang Shelby GT500 clones known as Eleanor sold for $852,500.00.
