That one's on the disco channel every now and then, on reruns of "rides" I think

WHERE IT SAYS 500 IS THAT CU" OR HP
The Elanor is roughly 500Hp & 428cubic. But that changes between varying manufactures. The Elanor is not actually a regular 67 Shelby GT500, thats just the frame that the Elanors built on.

Far I wish it was mine!!! I'd even trade my bike towards it! These pics are from an auction on ebay which I saw about two years ago. Asking price at the time was $40,000 US.

The GT-500E, as it's known, comes in three flavors - the $80,000 base model, a $120,000 Performance Package and the $150,000 Super Snake. Powering the $80K Eleanor is a 302-cid V-8 rated at 325 horsepower and backed up by an automatic or four-speed manual transmission. A custom deluxe black vinyl dresses up the interior, which also benefits from a race-style rollbar, full gauges, a CD stereo system and air conditioning. Outside, the GT-500E is decked out with the same custom-fabricated fiberglass spoilers and scoops, quick-fill gas cap, side-exit exhaust pipes and driving lights Eleanor wore in the movie. Seventeen-inch Edelbrock alloy wheels take the place of the similar Schmidt rims used on the original.

Stepping up to the Performance Package nets everything in the base model plus a 351-cid/430-horsepower V-8, nitrous oxide injection, a six-speed manual transmission and a laundry list of parts that would seem more at home on a NASCAR stocker than a street car. The GT-500E Super Snake features a supercharged 427-cid aluminum V-8 cranking out 750 horsepower.

yeah but he had a big hand in the new cobra and ford GT.

cant beat a good cosworth... like the one my bike is next to in our garage. 350KW at 28PSI. i like my V8's but you can't ignor those numbers! :devil2:

[Motu]

I'd take any of them on...head to head with my Pajero....they wouldn't stand a bloody chance.

[SPORK]

Holy fuck!

The GT500E! I love it! It's been my favourite car for ages! Thank you so much!

DID YOU SEE THAT DOCO ON PRIME TV , HE SAID FORD CANT COMPETE WITH THESE IMPORT CARS , AND THE MITUSBISHI HE WORKS ON NOW OUT PERFORM ALL THE FORDS HES EVER WORKED ON , MAYBE HE HAS A MITSI DEALERSHIP ,I KNOW SOME JAP TUNERS ARE GETTING ABOUT 1000 HP OUT OF SOME EVOS

[JohnBoy]

I KNOW SOME JAP TUNERS ARE GETTING ABOUT 1000 HP OUT OF SOME EVOS

agreed, but i challenge any of them if they use those cars as a daily drive. you get a 1000hp out of a good V8 atleast you can drive it everyday (bar damp days :devil2: ) without fear of engine failure.

[N4CR]

Yeah I would have my bets on the heavier pajero with the people killers and the huge engine up front.... head on to head on we are talking right?

Fuck of WINJA, these roller skates MAY make the HP but the look as atractive as the rear end of a ewe with run bearings.
Performance is O.K. but if it ain't got the 'looks' it's a loser.

[JohnBoy]

true, those supra's are well built. but id like to see a 4cyl do that..

[Biff]

The ultimate Ferrari? Mmmmmmmmm

I know what you mean, my 'bomb' is a '62 Mistal is a daily driver and can skid the T/As in 4th gear in the wet, woo-hoo, what fun!!! Probably 'only' 320HP)

Top speed is 135mph (whatever THAT is in metrics)

[scumdog]

FUCK , WHO CARES AS LONG AS IT CAN PICK PEOPLE UP TO PAINT MY ROOF

Well hell, you sure as hell won't pick up me!!!

[Ixion]

My Pajero is older, heavier, and has more iron than yours. Bags I first go

[scumdog]

THAT CAME OUT IN 2002 , WELL THE NEW GT40 IS OUT , WHY DIDNT THEY CALL IT THE "HENRY" INSTEAD? OR MAYBE THEY SHOULD START MAKING THE ANGLIA AGAIN AND CALL THAT "THE HENRY" . THE ANGLIA OR MK1 CORTINA ARE MORE LIKE A HENRY I SUPOSE

I have three Anglias, they're all top cars!!

I have a slew of other Ford cars and my son is named Edsel and sure as hell he's no bozo!!

Anybody that can fog a mirror can make a ricer go but it takes a real man to make a Detroit Iron car (or Milwauki (sp) bike) go.)

[N4CR]

Does it have people killers? Suppose you had better go first to give a better representation (no people killer cheating). Then Motu can take out the parts that are left.


EDIT:
Biff... ohhh boy my fav ferrari there. Friggen wank material that is. :love:

And WINJA "I SAW A VIDEO OF A SUPRA EVERYDAY DRIVE CAR WITH A 1000+ HP , FUCKEN FAST AND RELIABLE"

They will have turned the boost down so its probably running 'only' 400-500 or something. Otherwise it would blow up on the Northern going to work every day.

[scumdog]

Me'n my son were in the Mistral heading into "The Hollow Man" town yesterday and blew a Mercedes into the weeds - yes, he WAS 'giving it a go'

Boy, am I glad I'm SO MATURE!!! :motu:

Nah, I reckon the HENRY would be the XA Falcon. Henry would have liked that car I reckon.

[scumdog]

Nah, I reckon the HENRY would be the XA Falcon. Henry would have liked that car I reckon.

For me it was a 'Bonus Built' '48 Ford F-1 truck, I always thought that overhead valve engines were a passing fad.....

FALCONS??? a flighty passing fad for those that thought that less than eight cylinders and more then four doors was a necessity.....

Of course my indulgence in 'Famous Grouse' may not have enhanced my thought process- but that's YOUR opinion!!

More than four doors ?On an XA ? How much of the FG have you had ? Theydid come with V8s (the XA) by the way.

I like side valves m'self. Nice and simple and torquey. Never figured out why they went out of fashion.

And I wish someone would explain to me what is the point of sticking an overhead cam is a DIESEL. Given that side valves can handle 4000 rpm OK and OHV 6000. And a diesel revs to what ? with it's OHC.

Some good points Mr I, as I'm a US car fan I struggle to accept XA onwards 'coons!!
However any Henry product is OK by me!!

Too true about diesel Over-Head cam set-ups, my sv V8's would pull 5,500 - even in reverse!!
My Mistral is good for 7,000rpm but the hydraulic tappets don't like it!

And mt FG whiskey helps me no end!! ( where is Dangerous when I need him??)

Funny enough , yesterday in the courtyard below our appartment was a GT40 , Nice car but I think I'd prefer the 60's version. Had a good look around one a few weeks backat a bike and car show. They are selling for upward of 175,000 pounds because supply hasn't met demand. The show also had the Prototype PS Ducati.

[Lou Girardin]

Imagine naming a car after your son, then putting a grill on it that looks like a vagina.

BTW. I'd love to see the N/A street V8 that can RELIABLY put out 1000hp.
Most are limited to 1hp per cubic inch.

And still has horse-and-cart rear suspension :rofl: :rofl:

No but one of my sons has that name!!

It means 'deep thinker' if you look it up.

BTW Edsel was responsible for beautiful cars such as the '33-'34 Ford V8, his abilities were quashed by a domineering old man, I recommend reading the book 'FORD' to find out more.

Four valve heads, fewer moving parts, variable cam timing. I am coming from a BMW DOHC point of view though
