Gulfstream Aqua 1970 Mustang Shelby GT 350 fastback with gold stripes and a 300hp (at 5400rpm), 351 cubic inch, 4 barrel, Ram Air, V8 engine. This Glufstream Aqua color is a Shelby only color for 1970 since Shelby announced stopping Mustang Shelby production in 1969 and the remaining cars in work were finished in 1970 and sold as 1970 models even though they where essentially 1969 models.

Gulfstream Aqua 1970 Mustang Shelby GT 350 fastback, front end view with fog lamps new to 1969-70 and Lucas driving lights which continued to be used on the Shelby since 1968. Also new to the 1969-70 Shelby was the chrome strip which runs around the the outside of the flat black grille with offset cobra Shelby emblem. These black hood stripes differentiated the 1970 Shelbys from the 1969 models.

Bright Yellow 1970 Mustang Shelby GT 500 fastback with a 335hp (at 5200rpm), 428 cubic inch, 4 barrel, Ram Air, Cobra Jet, V8 engine. This color was used from 1968 to 1971 and is also known as Grabber Yellow or Corporate Yellow. Corporate Yellow was a special order Mustang color for 1968, then Shelby used it as a standard color in 1969 and named it Bright Yellow or Grabber Yellow. So this is a Shelby carry over color from 1969. In 1970 Mustang made Corporate Yellow an official color but changed the name like Shelby to Grabber Yellow in 1971. A large desktop wallpaper is available for this view.
