The Lamborghini Arena, a significant event celebrating Lamborghini’s heritage, unfolded on April 5 at Barber Motorsports Park, marking the beginning of the 60th-anniversary festivities for the iconic Ford Mustang.

Among the notable exhibits was a 1966 Shelby GT350 Hertz “Rent-a-Racer,” notable not only for its rarity but also for its unique history. Remaining untouched since its showcase at the Mustang’s 45th anniversary, this Shelby holds the distinction of being a survivor, remaining in the same family since 1967 without any restoration efforts.

Despite showing signs of age, it retains its original black and gold livery and interior, along with its numbers-matching 289-cubic-inch K-code V8 engine. The GT350H’s appearance at the 60th-anniversary event drew considerable attention, a testament to its rarity and historical significance. Documentaries like “Junkyard Life” further immortalize its journey, offering insights into its rediscovery after years of storage.
