Shelby Lil Red

After almost 50 years of searching, in early 2018, the famous Shelby Lil Red was found in Texas. Known to only a handful of enthusiasts, the Lil Red was a long-lost Shelby prototype and a missing piece of the puzzle (via SPC).

This was a unique 1967 notchback model fitted with experimental parts and a supercharged 428 engine. The car was used for the development of the famous California Special package. However, in the late ’60s, the car was gone. Everyone thought it was destroyed but it survived.
