Shelbiette GT

Well up for sale is my lovingly restored SWB Shelbiette GT.

It was only completed late last Summer but a lack of space and a new project soon to arrive means it has to go.

The buggy has a had a full body off resto. with no nut or bolt left untouched.

Chassis:

·

1971 (Tax Exempt) registered but with K+L front beam and wide 5's all round. On the V 5 as a VW Convertible. Old pans removed and replaced with steel box section and flat steel sheet. leaving the chassis very sturdy without any flex. Coated in marine grade Jotamastic.

·

Wide 5 drums refurbed inside. New solid brake lines run throughout the body.

·

Solid Wide five steels in cellulose black fitted all round. Skinny on front and massive tyres at back.

·

Also built in rollcage with window built into frame.

Body:

·

Restored Shelbiette GT fibreglass tub. sprayed in cellulose Firecracker blue with added Blue metalflake. coated in 7+ layers of lacquer.

Engine and Gearbox:

·

Rebuilt 1835 cc engine

·

Twin 40 Kadrons

·

Genuine Facet pump

·

Scat Serpentine Pulley

·

New Tinwear

·

No problems at all with this and pulls like a train. If I was being picky I would say that it could do with being fully set up on a rolling road.

·

1600 GT Gearbox so cruises well

·

Short shift gearstick

Electrics:

·

Safety kill switch

·

GPS Tracker

·

LED Multifunction rear lights

·

New front headlights

Others:

·

Matching front and back seats. with harnesses for front seats

·

Removable quick release steering wheel

Bar the actual chassis. most of the parts are new/restored.

There's probably more that I've forgotten. just ask if you have any questions.

Please note that the pictures do not show the Serpentine belt kit that has now been fitted.
