The second I saw what was in his garage I knew you weren’t getting it back 😂
Right it’s like it’s meant too be there😅
I was thinking the same thing.
Nope. Not happening.
That's funny. Me too!
Ong like he takes care of it better than he ever did 😂
As much as i want to see austin have the gt500 back, i’d leave it to the old man happy with his beautiful and perfectly colored collection. The smile on his face is legend. It’s on the right hands austin but it will be great to get another one else where. The c8 is awesome but the gt500 is really something special.
I have an opposite view point. If I was the old man I would sell the car back to him and make him promise me to never sell it. The GT500 is not his generation mustang and will never be as special as someone who was young and owned it.
Why tf did he sell the car in the first place if he like it and didn't need the money? Ppl are stpd.
@@Mike-dd8bd that’s like saying you wouldn’t enjoy a 1965 mustang because you’re 25 years old…
@@amac8487 You are missing my point. You can still enjoy a car at any age. But there is a certain level of nostalgia the 25 year old won’t know about. This is why so many older people have old cars.
@@Mike-dd8bd I get your point. Totally get it…. But you can’t devalue the meaning of an object or emotion towards something based on age alone.
Also, the problem we have today is everything is so damn disposable. People buy and flip cars over and over and over because they can, and there are so so so many cool cars out there to experience. Not many people buy something and hold onto it like they used to back in the day; and that’s said for everything, not just cars. We are living in a disposable world
That old Dude is super cool! He's done well for himself and damn he keeps his vehicles so clean! Much Respect to him!
Tony seems like such a class act! Clean guy, garage, house...living the dream! That car belongs with Tony, go find another Austin.
The 350 looked better but damn that 500 smoked it on sound!
I'm for Tony keeping the GT500 paired with the GT350. Together they look awesome and you know he appreciates both of them. I think Tony was the perfect person for it to be sold to.
Valuable lesson learned here, if you have the car of your dreams....don't sell it!!
I'm happy that it's in better hands with a man that knows what he has!👍🏾
This gentlemen's love and passion for cars is real, he actually enjoys what he owns.
The GT350 owns the 500 when it comes to sound.
This 'ol boy's got some nice toys! And unlike a lot of collectors, he's driving (and enjoying) his toys.
500 makes the 350 look like a girl scout though XD
@@jonhaze7537 for some people I guess.... 🤷🏽♂️
Heh, a little ways into the video and I was like, "he is not letting that car go." Matching colour 350??? Nope not going to happen. AND he tracks it ???? Yeah you were doomed from the start. He has a very nice setup. That truck was a thing of beauty as well.
Those two look amazing together and that guy seemed like such a good guy, I'm glad to see him enjoying it.
This guy here is to me the ultimate car enthusiast who I'm sure drives his cars to their potential but looks after them meticulously and does not abuse them. Austin you shouldn't of sold it I know you love your Mclaren but the Mustang and I'm sure a GT500 for that matter has soul.
Mate, leave the 500 to this man to enjoy and you place an order for a brand new GT500 now.
While I don’t know his backstory, I hope there is sentimental value to him; maybe a family member purchased the car originally, or something similar. Otherwise, how hard would it have been to find another with a few months of patience? It’s a brand new car that won’t be tough to find on the used market. Even using the guy in the video as an example, he built his own car when he was much younger. Either way, he does seem passionate about this hobby, and for that I’m thankful to be able to share with him.
The McLaren has "soul"...and some will say the Mustang doesn't. It all depends on what triggers your emotion.
@@bricebarefoot3437 that’s true.
@@bricebarefoot3437 The GT500 triggers my emotions much more than any McLaren will ever do.
@@imacrazy6872 And that's great for you. And it's different for others. There's no wrong answer.
The mods he has done to the GT500 has taken it to another level. He made just enough modifications to make it his car and not the one you sold him.
Austin, you definitely found that GT500 a good home, that's for sure. What a collection!! That shot at 19:57 was pure gold. You should take delivery of your Z06, and if you still feel the same way, just go buy another GT500.
I'm not much of a Mustang guy but Dam
Now that is an awesome collection.
I can appreciate the love and passion these two guys have for these vehicles.
Thanks Austin.
This was a fun video.
It’s amazing how much bigger the 500 looks than the 350 sitting side by side. Tony is an awesome guy and at least you know it’s in good hands
That car belongs with Tony, I'm actually glad he's got it and not selling. Super cool dude. Don't forget the tires and gas situation at the track
Man, that GT350 looks spectacular. good to know he took care of the GT500
hes such a good soul we need more guys like him running this country just a man enjoying american muscle
Gotta say, I wasnt expecting him to keep her. So glad he did, and you took it like a champ. What a pair he has. Hats off to the guy.
Awesome to see the Shelby content again! Tony truly living his best life, you see the inner child coming out ha! 😎👍🏼
This dude epitomizes a true enthusiast with Carroll Shelby's perspective, drive your cars. Many "so called" enthusiasts own these vehicles and refuse to drive them like they were meant to be driven. This dude not only keeps these vehicles pristine but drives them. "I am not that good of a drive, but I am learning." Classic. I like that ford modernized the mustang by contemporary standards, but in the same note I would never own one for that reason. Give me the last Shelby mustang Carroll Shelby worked on, the 2014 Shelby GT500, but I also like the 2016-2020 Shelby GT350 and GT350R models quite a bit. Great video!
That guy seemed like a good dude. You made a real kind friend right there
Tony is the man! Well deserving of that car. A true enthusiast that uses his prized possessions, and shares it with others. Not many people out there would be open to allowing someone to drive their car, let alone do burnouts in it.
Yeah, the way he had those amazing cars stored, you knew he wasn't letting that gem go. Awesome video!!!
Fun video. Tony seems like a great guy. I wish I had friends like him in my life. Happy tracks!!
Lots of passionate car people are like that.
I love how giddy both these guys are. So wholesome. Have to appreciate that the guy who got the GT 500 tracks it.
Saw the house/garages from the outside and immediately knew this guy was a collector and driver of awesome cars. That seems like a great home for the GT500.
It is so cool when you see a dedicated car guy who actually drives his cars. I know a guy from the gym who's probably got $70M in Ferrari's sitting in a very large "barn/garage" behind his house but rarely drives them. What's the sense in having really cool cars you don't drive? He's got some rare cars but he doesn't drive them because he wants to stay under the radar and is too afraid of someone trying to steal one from him. It's like OK, nice cars but who cares....
I’d say selling the super snake was the real mistake. But the track pack is amazing and do what you want man
It’s not a super snake it’s a GT 500 with a track pack
I SO AGREE I HAVE 2 SUPERSNAKES MYSELF AND ONE BEING THE RARE 07 427 EDITION CONVERTABLE SUPER SNAKE AND MY 10 900HP SUPER SNAKE AND AS MUCH AS THE NEW GT500 IS A AMAZING CAR LOL IT WILL NEVER BE WORTH WHAT THE SUPER SNAKE WILL BE IN THE FUTURE.
@@laurencederook1930 I believe he was referring to the 14 gt500 he sold. I un subscribed after that. This video brought me here...
Agreed
Cool video and a super cool guy, well done!
What a great video, Austin! I LOVE how much Tony takes pride in his cars! He is so genuine, and an awesome gentleman!
One of your best videos yet... Great story and footage. I wish you would interview more enthusiasts like this...
Austin, best video yet! This was just so cool, I enjoyed the hell out of it! Thank you! Pura Vida from Costa Rica, by way of San Clemente!
Speed Phenom Awesome Video I'm glad you got to see and drive your Old Shelby GT500 CFTP and I'm not Surprised that Tony didn't sell it back to you especially because he has a Matching 67 Shelby GT350 and I can't wait to see you take her on a Race track just like the good ole days
This older guy is amazing a true Ford enthusiasm my kind of guy man I love all his vehicles and the time he takes to clean them and keep them perfect the gt350 sounds so good then the f100 what a cool dude
As I watch this I'm thinking. This guy has money! This guy is super cool, but he ain't gonna sell it. DAMN! That 350 sounds even better!! I hope you buy it. You just burned around $300 of tire!! LOL!
YEP!! And der it is. I didn't think he was gonna sell it. He's not about to make the same mistake you did, Austin.🤣
I am waiting on my race red GT500 CFTP to be delivered in a few weeks! ...LOVE that you are getting back into the seat of one of these!
Glad that he is taking good care of the car. I want to see it at the track again soon maybe.
That guy is so awesome & what a lucky man! He has an absolutely gorgeous collection 🍻 Yeap, Austin you made a big mistake, but it's home now 🤷🏼♂️
I a so happy Tony is living out his dreams and I would never part with any of his cars! Thank you both for sharing this.
You gotta admit, who you sold it to still was extremely nice! But I could have told you he wouldn't sell it if you were filming this live. He's a collector.
Man this was a great video to watch! One of the best I've seen in a while. Very entertaining and exciting
Wow! I like this guys collection and taste!
I love this! Two generations of authentic car enthusiasts. Bummed I missed you at South OC Cars & Coffee.
This is the greatest video ever made....for me.....I never stopped smiling and Tony is great!....so awesome to see classic versus new....and the gt500 rolling out of the tire smoke!!!!!
Fabulous opening montage, and of course, we feel your pain! Great post.
Too Much Fun! Man I wish you would of kept all your mustangs and kept your Mustang channel. It would of been cool to have 2 channels one for mustangs and the other for your McLaren. Unfortunately I know the lack of Money 💴 made you sell your Mustangs.
It was nice to see you talk mustangs again!
Best of Luck to you!
Love the excitement from both of them! They're like little kids beaming at Christmas.
I envy that guy. To have matching color mustangs from the old and new generation is one of my dreams. This video put a smile on my face the entire time. Love the GT500 and GT350.
That 350 sounds sick!!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
It was great to see a mustang video again! It's what drove me to the channel. Start getting more mustangs! Love all the videos.
Great gentleman . Respect for the way he has kept them monsters .. lovely vid all round ! Ty .
Being a road racer I am very surprised that you have not bought an Camaro ZL1 1 le
A Bow Tie?? Little Boys Wear Bow Ties,Real Men Ride Horse's
@@ernestbaddger9617 that's true plus the gt500 is faster around the track. The Crapmaro from Garbage Motors is junk 😂🤣😂🤣
See how much you'll get if you trade that ZL1 1LE and a Chevy GT500 track pack and see how much you are going to get offered on each one and I guarantee you that pony going to outweigh that bow tie
That 350 , Looks Better Than When it came Off The Assembly Line in Early 67
@@drfaticus I'm a Mustang guy but I'm pretty sure the zl1 1le is faster on track. It really is an absolute track monster and punches way above its weight limit.
I have never smiled as much as I did while watching this. As a mustang geek, there's nothing more I could ask for. I'm at peace.
I knew you wouldn't be able to resist....hehehe
They’re both AMAZING machines, but I’d take old school over new school all day, everyday! The 350 is just so damn beautiful… Tony is a great guy. Someone you’d want to hang out with all day, and talk cars!
I remember the video and all the reasons that he had for selling it ---- using too much gas and going through expensive tires were two of the reasons. He's fortunate that the current owner is so gracious.
Great video! Love that guys set up especially his 67 GT 350!
Absolutely loved this video!! I love how cars can bring the older and younger generation together like this!!
Best video you’ve made in some time! What a beautiful pair of Shelby’s! The new owner looks very happy
11:21 the smile of never stop being in child inside , pure joy great video
In 1986 I regrettably sold my custom '79 Ford F100 stepside pickup. A few years later by random chance I happened to see it for sale again on the front page of the Truck Trader mag at a local smoke shop. Never bought it back. But to this day all these years later I still regret selling my baby. A framed photo of it still hangs in my garage and I still think of the good times and good memories I had with it in the early 80s. I've had many, many vehicles since then and currently have a StingerGT (which I absolutely love!!).....but nothing will come close to that beloved Ford pickup.
This is so refreshing to watch vibes all day with another car enthusiast
Great videos man. Great B roll and editing 👌
Austin, your production quality has gone up. Excellent video.
Tony is such a cool dude!! Love his collection 😍🔥
I love mine. I was sad to see you had let go of yours but at least it got a good home! Very cool video :)
Those shots from 19:39 to 20:00 were SPECTACULAR. I had to take some screenshots.
Love the head to head shots! Such amazing cars. It makes me wonder how a Revology 67 Shelby would be with the new GT 500 drivetrain in it.
It wouldn't be a close Comparison of What That New Shelby is about, You'd have to change Too Many part's and Wiggle that Voodoo Motor in, It'll Be a Challenge
I TAKE THE 67 OVER THE NEW 500.
The ending was Epic!!!!
WOW!!!! 21 min just for a "no".... well done ! Thank god for Fast Forward!!! This guy never gets tired of his own bs!!!
Wow the 350 and the 500 together look awesome. We were all pretty sure you weren’t getting the car back. Fun video. Good job 👍
Why does this make me so happy to see/hear.
That was awesome!! Great video bro
What a great video Austin!😎
I know that gentleman was nervous as heck when you were constantly getting on it! He didn't wanna say no to you but I know deep inside he was shaking with every pedal push! Very cool & deserving guy ,you can tell he's a true enthusiast! The 500 sounds much more sinister!!
Best car content channel out there!🔥
Who the hell knew you sold your car to Ric Flair… Woooooooooo! Great side by side shots there are the end! Gorgeous machines!
Awesome content man!!!!
This guy went to the future and recorded himself. Nice 👍
Wow this is the best video on your channel 👌 really great vibes
I will take the 67 Shelby , we're the same age too! Wow very very nice👍🏿
Glad you got your car back and no surprise from us in the comments we knew you would miss the car and get another never thought exact same car but happy for u my guy
This turned out to be Cinematography.
Well done Austin and Tony
Man you should have asked if he ever decided to sell to give you first offer. So glad it went to a great place it does look good next to the 67 .
You know we all have regrets
But that man's smile said it all. Thanks for a great video 💯👍
17:15 omg... what a shot with the road & sun. Wow dude
Austin, your best episode yet!
Love this bro, he seems awesome!!
I don’t know who that gentleman is but he’s one Cool cat! I would love to hang out with him on a track day seems like a legit car guy!
Which twin turbo did you get? Bottom or what they call (mid mount) or the top mount. Also what sizes and options did you choose with the setup? I’m looking to build a TT 10r80. Something simple that could make 1k easy but can still be streetable daily drivable on a low setting.
Great episode. You have a awesome channel buddy
This man is a TRUE COLLECTOR.
He truly loves cars.
Love that they track it. Man wow that was super clean.
Well, you live and you learn. Great video!
Awesome cinematography! His collection is awesome! This video just taught me not to sell my 2013shelbygt500 fully loaded! I drag race it and track it! Thanks for the video! Never for sale!
10 minutes in and the love you both share for it is amazing!
Beautiful rides man..super cool guy too..nice to see nice people.
Love this video, those exhaust notes!!!
Loved this one man!
That was an amazing video! You couldn't have sold your 500 to a better guy!
that tandem rev off was amazing...didnt think i would even enjoy it that much.
