Barrett Jackson Top Muscle Car Results 2012
This one-of-a-kind custom 1964 Fairlane 500 was born a rare K Code.
It is currently modified with numerous one-of-a-kind custom components.
Built by ROUSH Industries in Michigan and restored by the best technicians
in the industry. This Fairlane was literally the poster child for
the launch of the Sherwin-Williams, Planet Color, Barrett-Jackson
Collector Color Series paints. This beauty is done in "Red
Hot Chili Pepper" and debuted at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas
2009.
It was unveiled at a huge media briefing at the Sherwin-Williams
display by Steve Davis, Bobby Moody and NASCAR star Greg Biffel.
The Fairlane then went on to be displayed at all of the Barrett-Jackson
Events promoting the Barrett-Jackson Custom Color paints. Steve's
personal goal was to create a car that reflected "old school"
horsepower and torque with state of the art technology and reliability.
There was no expense spared on the build of this unique masterpiece.
Powered by the famous ROUSH 427 IR V8 producing 522hp and 457ft/lb
of torque going through a Tremec TKO 600 5-speed transmission with
a McCloud dual disc clutch into a Moser/ROUSH 9" custom rear
end with a 3.70 gear ratio. The engine is fed through 8 stack throttle
bodies and manifold, it has custom headers/side exhaust with an
8 quart "Road Race" front sump oil pan. It has "Red
Hot Roush 427" custom valve covers, custom fender badges, custom
Barrett-Jackson inserts in the body side moldings, air conditioning
plus too much more to list here. The only miles since the completion
of the restoration are the result of loading and unloading for display
purposes. A once in a lifetime opportunity to own a real piece of
Steve Davis, Sherwin Williams and Barrett-Jackson history with the
benefit and knowledge of helping the men and women of our Armed
Forces.
An outstanding example of one of the original COPO ZL1 aluminum
block 427 Camaros, this particular car is #9 of the total production
run of 69 cars produced. This car is very well documented from its
original delivery to Fred Gibb Chevrolet of LaHarpe, Illinois, the
dealer that spearheaded the original concept of an all-aluminum
motor ZL1 Camaro.Included with this car is an amazing collection
of historical documentation including the Dealers Shippers copy
of the original window sticker, the customer copy of the original
bill of sale, a copy of the Chevrolet MSO and much more. Having
been through a very expensive, cost-no-object restoration, this
particular ZL1 Camaro is "one of the finest in existence",
exactly as it states in the accompanying Cuneen report by Ed Cuneen
of COPO Connection. Only the highest quality components were used
in this restoration with a strong emphasis on New Old Stock pieces
instead of more readily available reproduction items. A GM factory
assembled body shell was used to correct the extensive body modifications
performed during this cars long term drag race history. Look beyond
the show-quality paint, beautifully-fitted body and flawless-trim
to see one of the most top notch Camaro restorations in the world.
The workmanship employed to complete this car is the best you will
find and the direction to recapture assembly line correct details
is evident throughout the entire car, in particular with engine
compartment and chassis assemblies. The Cuneen Report that is included
with this car features extensive photography and a certification
of numbered and coded components. While this car has been driven
only a few miles since completion, it has been mechanically sorted
and performs flawlessly with no issues needing attention. Offered
here today by collector George Lyons of Erie, Pennsylvania, this
1969 ZL1 Camaro is stunning, highly documented, correctly restored
example from this historic run of just 69 cars.

is an all-aluminum 427cid small block Chevy. RCR opted for Dynacorn's

7. 2013 Shelby GT500 Special Edition $300,000
This Shelby GT500 Durability Car is a rare piece of muscle car
history, and is the car that the SVT team and Carroll Shelby signed
off at the racetrack. It is the genesis and inspiration for today's
Shelby GT500 production Mustangs that are available at Ford dealerships
nationwide. "I'm really proud to have my name on this car that
you guys [Ford SVT Team] have put together working with my dreams
of what I think a car should be. And you made it that and more,"
said Carroll Shelby. This Shelby GT500 Durability Car was designed
and engineered by the Ford SVT team working together with Carroll
Shelby. Ford SVT assembled much of this GT500 Durability by hand
and then tested it on Sebring International Raceway, the High-speed
Oval track at the Arizona Proving Ground, as well as the Route 66
road course, among others. It was personally piloted by Carroll
Shelby during many hours of its testing. As a result of its testing,
this Durability Car allowed the production GT500 to feature a 5.8L
supercharged aluminum-block V8 engine cranks out 650hp and 600 lb/ft
of torque, making it one of the most powerful cars ever built. Handling
is world-class with a TORSEN limited-slip differential, carbon fiber
one-piece drive shaft, front and rear Bilstein adjustable dampers,
performance-tuned front and rear springs and front and rear stabilizer
bars. The car stops on a dime with 6-piston Brembo front brake calipers,
ABS Ventilated 4-wheel disc brakes and Electronic brake distribution.

will be registered in the Official Shelby American Registry.

conditioning and heat, all chrome street and performance engine
components and headers. This awesome combination of colors with
the new technology of the chassis and drivetrain is a thrill to
drive.
Another truly impressive Resto-Mod from the Jimmy
Richardson Collection and Big Pop's Garage. Impressed with the styling
of the Eleanor Mustang Jimmy wanted something different an over-the-top.
His thought, what if all of the body modifications were steel and
made to be an integral part of the body. Working with two shops
Jimmy was able to turn this thought into reality. Hence the BAD
ASS Mustang was born. This car is truly spectacular. It is unique
in its construction and styling and is a one-of-a-kind Mustang.
Not only different by the drivetrain but also dimensionally and
geometrically different. The front fenders and hood have been extended.
The workmanship leaves nothing to be desired and is truly first
class. With over 3,000 man hours spent during the build process,
the investment of time shows and shows well. The engine is a Shelby
aluminum block displacing 428cid with Edelbrock aluminum Stage 3
heads and topped off with a Vortech supercharger built by Keith
Craft. The engine peaks at 763hp and 747lb/ft of torque. Other top
name products include Wilwood 4-wheel disc brakes, Schott custom
aluminum 3-piece wheels and every emblem is custom made. Finished
in 2008 Shelby Super Snake Red with simulated bare metal stripes,
this car truly stands out. Only 95 miles on the build. From the
Jimmy Richardson Collection.
