    Yeah, 500 made, numbered, and signed. I found out when reading that Shelby did that with the GT350-H's back in the '60's.

    Thats why I said I found out when reading it, Those were badass cars in their day but can't for the life of me understand why Hertz got them.

    I doubt those will be rented out to just anybody, lol. But anything is possible, especially considering Andy Sapp rented a Ferarri and beat on it in Las Vegas.

    he did?! lol, think a 355 is about $1,500 per day (100 mile limit) with a pretty hefty deposit...still be worth it! been thinking about doing it for a drift event, camaro or pusstang...need something with positive traction though...hrmm...maybe a cadillac if the traction control can be disabeled?

    These cars within a week will be beat to hell then they will spend more to keep them running then they will make off them, cause they will be at Ford every week getting new motors

    back when Hertz had the original Shelby rentals, guys would rent them and take them out to track days all the time. So I dont see what the big problem would be now?

    Renting those cars WON'T be cheap. You'll probably have to wait months to get an opening too.
