Shelby GTs Rise With Power and Style in 1967 Line
The 1967 GT-500s and GT-5300s offer major changes beyond looks with 428-cubic inch V8s and twin four-barrel carbs delivering strong off-the-line performance. The new cars feature smoother rides and improved handling plus roll bars for safety, while mileage suffers under aggressive driving. The test drive notes a 428 engine differing from the 427 used in race cars, and places the GT-500 in SCCA Class A alongside the Cobra and Vettes.
