Classic Recreations
The carbon fiber panels are created in collaboration with SpeedKore, known for its own crazy carbon-fiber builds. Blue light scans of the original pieces are used to create an exact match for each body part, then the new panels are autoclave-cured to create a blemish-free exposed carbon weave. The new panels are gorgeous to look at, but also weigh around 600 lbs less than the original parts. With less weight and a 5.2-liter Ford Aluminator Gen 3 Coyote engine with a 2.9-liter Whipple supercharger attached providing 810 hp and an accompanying 600 lb-ft of torque, Classic Recreation claims the Shelby GT500CR has the same power-to-weight ratio as most modern exotic cars. Aiding slick performance s a 10-speed automatic gearbox with paddle shifters.
