Venom, a Friends Shelby GT

Venom, a Friends Shelby GT

For todays Post I am sharing some shots of a Friends Shelby GT500 Mustang, which he calls Venom

He is actually my Wife's son's brother in Law, and he has had this for a while but this was the first time I got to see it, and boy it is nice, and the sound as he pulled in awesome

A little but about the Shelby
The Shelby Mustang is a high-performance variant of the Ford Mustang built by Shelby American from 1965 to 1967 and by the Ford Motor Company from 1968 to 1970.

In 2005, Ford revived the Shelby nameplate for a high-performance model of the fifth-generation Ford Mustang

The 2020 GT500 was unveiled at the January 2019 North American International Auto Show in Detroit. It is powered by a hand-built 5.2-liter "Predator" aluminum-alloy V8 engine with a 2.65-liter roots-type supercharger. The Shelby GT500 produces 760 hp (567 kW; 771 PS) and 625 lb⋅ft (847 N⋅m) of torque.

From all angle this is such a sweet ride I must say, he talked about heading somewhere with friends for an evening night shoot of it, I hope that comes to be would be a fun shoot, as Bobby whose car this is, is such a fun character

Once they pulled into the spot they were assigned at the car show, he got busy cleaning it all off, I love the red light son it, it has lighting in the grill but they dont show well during the day apparently so he did not turn them on

He was with a couple of other members of a local Shelby club or car club not sure of the details, I will do a follow up post at some stage with more shots of his car and of the others

Well OK let me show the three of the Shelbys in this post, in the background you may notice the fairgrounds, the even was a car and bike shot as part of the Whaling City Festival which was held in Buttonwood park.

As I almost always fdo I got there early, the registration started at 8AM, but I was out early that morning for a beach walk, and got to the park at &, so I took a stroll around including in the fair grounds, which of course were deserted that early in the morning, but I will get into that more in my Friday post

Wow… what a car. That’s a perfect name for it 🤩😎 I like the 5th photo the most… very classy.
Must have been a great car show. I even see a classic Cadillac in the back left? 🤩🤩
He has a good taste and the red lights do add something special to it.
Thanks for sharing @tattoodjay 😎
Have a wonderful Tuesday!

OHh yeah, I think so as well, but he has already ordered a lot of upgrades, none of which are cheap LOL

Nope, I wouldn’t have thought they would be cheap.
But if you are into cars… that’s it… I was a complete classic mini “fan” had 4 and fixed them up, repaired when needed… the money I put in. Lol
One needs a hobby though 😎

Yes indeed he can afford it and my wife has always wanted a mini but that won’t happen since she doesn’t drive lol

That’s a shame…
I haven’t really driven since about 2 years. As my back problems won’t let me. The main reason I sold my last classic mini last December. It was too hard for me to drive.
Maybe I should try a car with power steering and all the fancy modern things, a classic car doesn’t have.
Bit by bit… I don’t want to NOT drive around at all. But it sneaked in as hubby is just driving us around.

They are… for me it wasn’t the getting into and out bit. Just the turning of the wheel… no power steering bit. That caused my back to hurt a lot that I couldn’t properly walk the next days…

One does adjust life to it 🤓 that’s why I need to look for a lighter DSLR too. When I buy a new set, after our move.

True that’s why I switched to mirrorless myself a while back to reduce the weight to carry

I haven’t figured out the right combo for me… we will see.
They are just so heavy, especially when you have back problems.
I have time to research a bit more.

It’s worth taking time and researching to find a good solution that won’t aggravate your back

Just give it time, you will find a solution that works well for you, some of the bridge cameras or even point and shoot cameras are pretty light and take greta photos, so that may even be an option

you to have a good mid week :)

That is pretty awesome! What a great car! My cousins husband used to have a Shelby back in the day. He eventually sold it because I don't think it was conducive to having a family and all of that. Probably needed the money for the babies. Who knows! Great shots! It looks like this was an awesome evening!

OHh yeah its an awesome car, yeah Shelbys are sure not cheap, especially not with all the extra work he has had and had ordered for it, but he can afford it, his businesses are doign very well

I am looking forward to joining an evening photo shoot of it, he has lots of cool plans

Gotta love that black paintjob and the subtle hints of red on the car, absolute classic. This color combo suits the Mustang quite well.

What a sweet ride! I do love going to these car showoffs for lack of a better term. They do that here and spend all day fielding questions about the cars. I found it pretty interesting what you can actually learn from these people.

They take their cars seriously. My brothers would all be drooling right about now. :)

Nice change of venue!
