Shelby GT5000 Concept.. The Next Eleanor.. [by MK211]

[Mk211]

Hi people,

This is my Shelby GT5000 concept as if to appear in the next 'Gone in 60 seconds'.

Major respect to anyone who has or will attempt a Shelby GT500 concept in the future! Moreso than the current
mustang shape I aimed to stay tru to the original 1967 Shelby and that is why it was so damn challenging - primarily
cos how can u enhance something that is already perfect :P

Its been a brushed up project, using the following pic as a base just to get basic shape and perspective (yes they're still the same wheels ).
Reflections (some but not all ) and minor details i.e badge/stripe/exhausts/spotties + rims are donored but again all the CP elements
were modified heavily. Everything else (i.e. bodywork/interior/indicators/bonnet/door handle etc) brushed.

big thanks to every single person who viewed the wips (over what seems the last decade ), especially in particular to those over @ FastFours
and to those who gave me inspiration to keep at it and tweak the later ones 8) who never let me settle until I was 110% satisfied with it

Orig: (yep the base was a camaro!)


The Next Eleanor:


Below is the 1st 'final' version (technically it is finished, but call it the final WIP lol cos several people who helped me with the
wips along the way (in particular CPWerks - cos the last one wasn't good enough for him ).. and myself decided it
wasn't tru 'Eleanor' enough still!, so back it went into my photoshop garage to rework the damn thing ):


C+C much appreciated

WOw, thats very nice, but why start with a Camaro base? Still looks camaro-ish.

[Electricvis]

wow its amazing. I dont know for sure but from this view the drivers side front looks a little high. No biggie. It still looks awesome. Keep this up.

[v8_king]

DYNABLASTER, nice work on the new camaro, I like how you've accentuated the arches
and lengthened the front

Thanks again everyone 8)!

[crazyrichard]

ooh that's you
i've been away for a while too

i nominated your chop at futured chop so let's see what happens

see ya around

grts richard

[chopster]

dear lord your brushing techniques are amaaazing... big respect in every aspect!
Did you already write a tutorial about brushing... wanna know your techniques man!

[Altered_Perception]

wow thats ******* amazing i cant find a flaw, and if i could who cares you need to send that pic to ford, maybe make some money. whoever designed the new "retro" mustang would be put to shame with that car

[Manson_cs]

Ahh i remember your work now, well who could forget it, just didnt recognise your name, lol sorry

[AverageJoe]

Its amazing... Besides being one of the greatest on PSC, you created you own style that i can always point out...

one flaw though:
look underneath the tires! It looks like there is a small section of a different tire beneath the tires on the ford... get what im saying?

definately featured chop material... then again most of your stuff is

[briandyche]

I must say, I always look forward to what i will see when i click on one of your threads, and you continually fail to dissapoint. I love your style, because you take the impossible, making a beautifully perfect car even better. Awesome chop bro, really amazing.

[white_lancer]

well unike the rest this was not such a surprise to me...when i first saw ur impreza i immediately fell in love with it lol and to me that was teh best chop i have ever seen... any this is still brilliant by any standard... youre my inspiration lol hope to one day get my brushing half as good as urs...

[Sha$XL]

damn this chop is a BAMF

nice work m8

[Altered_Perception]

hey guess what? after looking it over many times i found only 1 noticable flaw, the far headlight is different, its still camaro. still i dont care im waiting for ford to create this so i can buy it!

[TBURG]

Absolutely FANTASTIC !!!
Chip Foose should see this.
