A hot '66 Shelby GT-350 Shelby Mustang in more ways than one. Stolen multiple times this Mustang has found a safe home in Wisconsin.
Tony Dreier doesn't mind driving his fabulous 1966 GT-350 Shelby Mustang around and having some fun with it. He actually drove it regularly for years before he restored it.
But Dreier jokes that "I try not to have it out of my sight too long," and you can't really blame him. He isn't paranoid or overly protective, it's just that his Shelby has a bit of a star-crossed past. It was apparently stolen several times during its early days. It's been chased, shot at, kidnapped, repainted, recovered and eventually banished to a salvage yard. Dreier, a resident of Clintonville, Wis., doesn't expect the Mustang to ever go missing again while he still has the title, but you never know.
The Race of Gentlemen (T.R.O.G.) will celebrate its tenth anniversary as "the greatest race on earth" with the return to Wildwood, New Jersey on September 30 through October 2.
WILDWOOD, N.J./PRNewswire/ -- The Race of Gentlemen (T.R.O.G.) will celebrate its tenth anniversary as "the greatest race on earth" with the return to Wildwood, New Jersey on September 30 through October 2. The inaugural Race of Gentlemen was held in 2012 on the beach in Asbury Park, New Jersey, just days before Hurricane Sandy made landfall. The popular event pays tribute to a style of racing that evokes a bygone era when hand-built pre-WWII cars and motorcycles were pieced together in backyards and garages, then tested and proven in races on the flat, hard sand of the beach.
