With Carroll Shelby s business,Shelby-American based in Los Angeles, already successful with itreputation for producing huge power from small cars, it was high onFord Motor Company's list to see what he could do with their newMustang. Ford was tired of the Chevrolet Corvette seeing podiumfinishes at the track and needed the Mustang to change that. Tomeet SCCA racing guidelines, a race version must have no less than100 production models built at a Ford facility to be available forthe public to purchase. Ford sent all 100 cars direct to LosAngeles for Shelby to tweak into the now famous GT350. Of those, aselect 36 were tuned into the track-ready "R" model. The "R" stoodfor Race! It was stripped of as much weight as possible. No rearseat, all Plexiglas windows with exception to the windshield, nonecessity items whatsoever!
