SHELBY F -150
ALL NEW 700HP

What happens when you take America’s best-selling
pickup truck (hint: the Ford F-150) with a 5.0L V8 engine
and let the Shelby American team overhaul it? You get
the 700HP Shelby F-150 and the most refined monster
truck for the street that money can buy.
After a very successful media launch at SEMA in Las
Vegas this past November, the phones have been
burning up with orders for more than half of the 500
trucks we plan to offer for 2016.
Want to hear more about what went into developing
the Shelby F-150? We’ll let Gary Patterson, VP of
International & Strategic Sales, walk you through our
latest foray into the 4x4 space.

SHELBY TRACK EXPERIENCE
Thinking about picking up the new Mustang and having it converted to a Shelby but not
sure if 670HP is going to be enough or if 750+HP is more your speed? Or maybe you’re
wondering what’s the difference in how the 2013-14 GT500 Super Snake and the 2015-16
Super Snake drives?
Now Shelby American will let you come and test drive these cars before making that
decision. No really.
7
For $1,750 customers have come out to Vegas and
joined us at the Spring Mountain Motorsports racetrack for a full-day of driving and riding in the latest
(and earlier) models to get a proper tire-kicking in
before making their purchase.
Even for novices that have never driven a Shelby
nor spent any time on the track, this experience will
let them run (and ride) at a level that even they’ll
find comfortable. Plus, everyone gets seat time with
our factory drivers (Gary Patterson and Vince
LaViolette) for the fastest, hot-laps you’ll ever
experience.
We’ve started to get some dates on the calendar for the Q1 months: Sat. Feb 13 and Sat. Mar 26
we’re heading back out. Space is limited so let us
know if we can expect you, by dropping us a note

SHELBY G T
ECOBOOST

2016 is destined to be the year of the
Mustang. For the first time, Ford Motor Co. is
making the Mustang a world car and with that,
they hope to meet the pent-up demand for the
pony car and in the process, make the
Mustang the World’s Best Selling Sports Car.
Shelby American is ready with a network of
global mod-shops, as well as upfitments, for
the entire family of new Mustangs including the
hot-selling, 2.3L, 4-cylinder turbo EcoBoost –
the best selling Mustang platform in America.
As you will learn in the attached video, a lot of
development and testing went into delivering
a Shelby experience in the V8 Shelby GT’s little
brother. The Shelby GT EcoBoost is more than
bold, new graphics and carbon fiber. It comes
with the proper Ford Performance suspension,
Wilwood brakes, WELD Venice wheels and more
power (to name a few) that make it a proper
Mustang: A Shelby Mustang.

MUSEUM MINUTE
DAY T ON A COUPE
If you’ve yet to make the journey to the
Shelby Heritage Center in Las Vegas, we’re
about to bring a little bit of the eye-candy to
you - starting with our 50th Anniversary
Daytona Coupes (in Fiberglass and
Aluminum). Jim King, our Historian and tour
guide, takes you through the history of this
vehicle that brought Shelby (and Ford) the
first, and only, FIA world championship, for
an American brand.

SPP FEATURE
WELD VENICE WHEEL S
When Shelby American was developing the 2015 Shelby GT based on the all-new Ford
Mustang GT, a tremendous amount of time, resources and testing were dedicated to
building the perfect platform for this 670HP monster. From the functional hood scoops
in the carbon fiber hood (which help to dramatically lower the temperatures of the
supercharger and engine by as much as 100F) to the best type of tire to use, we left no
stone unturned.
When it came to selecting a wheel partner, Shelby chose WELD Racing. The new Venice
wheels WELD developed for the Shelby GT are CNC-machined from a single block of
6061-T6 aluminum and at only 28lbs and over 1,700lbs in Rotational Movement of Inertia
(RMOI), these are the strongest wheels by weight that Shelby’s ever run.

Polished
Black
Machined Black
The 20” Shelby GT Venice Wheels are available in 3 iterations: Black, Machined Black, and
polished Aluminum and perfectly complement the new (and old) Mustangs with 9.5” in the
front and 10.5” in the rear.
Plus the Venice wheels have been treated with Advanced Tactical Coating (ATC) - a
nano-ceramic clear coating to help preserve and protect the finish and durability of the wheels.

SPP Tech Tip: Customers with 2005-09 Mustangs can
upgrade their band-clamp style TPMS (Tire Pressure
Monitoring System) to late-model valve stem versions
that will work with the factory monitoring systems. The
original band clamp may become loose over time and
cause pressure reading errors. And if you’re replacing
wheels and tires, you don’t need to worry about sourcing
larger bands to accomodate aftermarket wheels.

TEAM SHELBY
SHELBY BASH 2016
The Team Shelby Bash has become one of the hottest events of the year and the 9th
annual one is shaping up to be among the most engaging in the club’s history. From
Thursday, March 3, through Sunday, March 6, 2016, in Las Vegas, the four-day event
will focus on getting behind the wheel with track days and hot-laps at Spring Mountain
Ranch, car cruises and more, such as parties at the Shelby American International world
headquarters and exclusive tours.
“Each year, we find new ways to give Team Shelby Club members an action-packed
weekend of motoring excitement,” said Tracey Smith, Team Shelby National Director.
“Team Shelby was founded to encourage people to get out and really enjoy their
vehicle, so our 2016 event is based on that vision.”
16
Team Shelby will kick off the four-day event with a reception at the South Point Hotel
in Las Vegas on Thursday, March 3, 2016. Starting Friday, Team Shelby guests can enjoy
two days of action-packed excitement such as track events including hot laps in the latest
Shelby American vehicles at Spring Mountain Ranch.
“From having safe fun on the track to spirited wheel to wheel action and hot laps in our
latest Shelby vehicles, all of the activities at Spring Mountain Ranch will deliver a shot of
adrenalin,” noted Gary Patterson, Shelby American Vice President of International and
Strategic Sales, who is also a test driver and instructor. “For those who are not inclined to
get on the track, Team Shelby will guide guests through the stunning Valley of Fire on
Friday and a scenic Poker Run on Saturday. The theme is to get behind the wheel with
fellow enthusiasts.”
17
Because community is a key part of the event, Team Shelby will host a pair of parties at
the Shelby American world headquarters. Friday night will be casual with live
entertainment and a barbeque at SAI. On Saturday evening, Shelby American will host an
official banquet in Las Vegas with high profile speakers, VIP guests, Shelby legends and
special video presentations. Team Shelby will honor the 50th anniversary of the
Shelby American and Ford victory at Le Mans in the Ford GT and the anniversaries of the
Ford Shelby G.T.350H cars during the ceremony.
“While we’ll once again celebrate Shelby’s great history, we’re putting a special emphasis on fun behind the wheel this year,” added Ms. Smith. “Carroll believed that driving
should be an adventure, so he wanted the Team Shelby Bash to be much more than just a
chance to look at cool cars and cruise the Las Vegas strip. We believe that the best way to
enjoy the high octane Shelby lifestyle is from the driver’s seat.”
