In 2006, the union was rekindled with 500 Shelby GT-H Coupes supplied to the Hertz Corporation. They were available at select airports around the country. Later, an additional 500 GT-H Mustangs were created, this time, they were convertibles. Each Hertz Mustang was painted in Hertz black exterior paint with gold 'Le Mans' dual racing stripes and 'Shelby GT-H' rocker stripes, Hertz Edition emblem, and a Hertz Shelby GT-H sill plate. Each is fitted with a special hood with pins and brushed aluminum grille featuring the running horse emblem. The upgrades continue with 18-inch aluminum wheels, P235/55ZR18 performance tires, custom front facia with integrated lower grille, and a set of body side scoops. The suspension was improved to provide better handling. Under the hood, the 4.6-liter V8, enhanced with Ford's Racing Performance Power Pack (FR1), produces 325 horsepower. There is a 3.55:1 ratio rear axle assembly to handle the power off-the-line. Other features include power steering, tilt wheel, power windows, power locks, cruise control, power seats, and SIRIUS Satellite Radio. This example is number 179 that spent its early life at the Philadelphia Airport. It has been driven 19,000 miles. It is in good condition; never been in an accident and has no scratches, dents, or dings. In 2008, this 'Rent-A-Racer' GT-H Convertible was offered for sale at the Hilton Head Sports & Classic Car Auction presented by Worldwide Auctioneers. It had an estimated value of $40,000 - $50,000. As bidding came to a close, the car had been sold for $33,000 including buyer's premium. |
