I like Eleanor better too.  But "Eleanor" wasn't even a '67 GT500, the people that made the movie had a company create a replica of one, and it was pretty different too, not even near exact, that's why in one ad in C/D there was a picture of Eleanor and it said "2004 Shelby GT500" or something.  That company now sells those "GT500s".

Dammit! My posts never make any sense.  Anyway, "Eleanor" wasn't a '67 Shelby GT500, the producers or whatever had a company build a car that resembled the GT500, but wasn't too near an actual one.
