1967 Ford Mustang Shelby EXP “Green Hornet” Tribute, a stunning recreation of one of the rarest Mustangs ever conceived. Finished in a deep Green Metallic with a black vinyl top, this car captures the spirit of the one-off experimental Shelby prototype built for testing high-performance concepts in the late 1960s. Every detail of this build has been executed with precision, giving this tribute the presence and performance worthy of its legendary inspiration. The aggressive front end features hood pins, Shelby-style trim, and Lucas fog lights, while 17-inch Scott Drake Legendary wheels and a blacked-out stance give it a show-ready finish.
Under the hood, power comes from a brand-new 427 cubic-inch Ford Racing V8 with electronic fuel injection, paired to a smooth-shifting 5-speed manual transmission sourced from Prestige Motor Sports. The engine bay gleams with aluminum accents, a Champ Pans oil pan, stainless components throughout, and a custom cooling setup with an aluminum radiator. Delivering a breathtaking 524 horsepower, this Mustang drives every bit as strong as it looks. Wilwood brakes and a full Ridetech suspension system with coilovers and a 4-link rear setup ensure that the handling is tight, responsive, and modern while retaining that unmistakable Shelby character.
Inside, the car has been completely reimagined with materials from TMI Products, combining 1967 styling cues with high-end craftsmanship. Black leather bucket seats, a wood-rimmed steering wheel, and a black and aluminum-accented dash create a clean, driver-focused environment. The Dakota Digital gauges blend classic style with modern precision, while a Kenwood stereo adds a touch of contemporary convenience. Details like the trunk-mounted battery, Sunpro RPM gauge, and new wiring throughout demonstrate the professional level of detail invested in this build.
This “Green Hornet” Tribute was professionally assembled and customized by Ultima Race Works, one of Chicagoland’s premier high-end performance shops. The car has been driven less than 350 miles since completion, only to test and tune its systems. Originally a California car later purchased from an estate in Wisconsin, this Shelby EXP replica stands as a one-of-one build, every inch designed to deliver show-quality looks and heart-pounding performance. An icon reborn for the modern era, this is more than just a tribute, it’s a statement piece for any serious Mustang or Shelby enthusiast.
