Vintage 1966 Shelby GT350 'How to Make an Italian Cry' Print Advertisement
Approximately 8 x 11 inches.
This vintage 1966 Shelby GT350 magazine advertisement is one of the most audacious original print ads of the muscle car era, headlined with the unforgettable challenge: 'How to Make an Italian Cry.' Depicting a white GT350 with racing stripes pulling up to a Mediterranean villa as onlookers stare in disbelief, the collectible ad captures Carroll Shelby's unapologetic mission to outgun Ferrari and Lamborghini with a Cobra-bred, Ford-powered American machine. Body copy boasts the 306-horsepower Ford 289, Sebring-close-ratio transmission, and a $4,428 price tag — context that makes this vintage advertisement a snapshot of automotive history at its most thrilling.
