Pepper Gray 1967 Shelby GT-500 Eleanor movie car, right front view. Believe it or not, the custom billet grille is based on an aftermarket component originally developed for the Chevy Astro van.
Those are Schmidt 17x8-inch wheels with P245/40ZR17 Goodyear Eagle F1 tires.
The side exit exhaust and rear side scoops are non-functional on the 12 cars used in the movie. Functional on the 13th car
Nice blacked out rear end of the Eleanor Shelby.
This one has a 428ci V8 with dual quads.
The 13th CVS Eleanor was a manual transmission. This one is an automatic like the other 12 Eleanors. So exactly which Eleanor is this one?
Here is a more details shot of the dash.
The 1967 Ford Mustang promotional booklet says, Three new ways to answer the call of the Mustang.... The cover shows a Candyapple Red convertible, an Acapulco Blue with black vinyl top hardtop, and a Springtime Yellow fastback 2+2 (two in the front seat and two in the back seat).
This page says, Bred first... to be first! How do you improve on a classic? How do you add excitement to an American original - an original which is already the most exciting, most acclaimed new car in history? With subtle body changes and interior improvements. The result is a rare combination that says Mustang for '67 is undeniably new - without taking away the flair and flavor of the classic design that is so unmistakably Mustang.
We've added fresh Mustang optional features, like a hefty 390-cubic-inch Thunderbird Special V-8 for extra spirit. Like the Tilt-Away Steering Wheel that moves aside when you open the door - and tilts up or down to nine different driving positions. Fingertip Speed Control which lets you set cruising speed without need to maintain constant accelerator pressure. SelectShift Cruise-O-Matic... go fully automatic or shift manually for the fun of it without a clutch. Greater traction Wide-Oval Sports Tires with V-8's. Front Power Disc Brakes. SelectAire Conditioner and Convenience Control Panel.
What did we keep? The standards that made Mustang a classic in the first place... standards that won the hearts of almost a million-and-a-half owners in under three years. Those owners (and many more) have taken the Mustang Pledge... because of standard features like bucket seats and full carpeting. Floor-mounted shift. All-vinyl trim. Lithe performance and handling. And most particularly we kept the classic long, lean, adventurous look - of Mustang, the original. Take the Mustang Pledge in one of three exciting ways... hardtop, convertible, fastback.
The photo captions says, Mustang Hardtop: World's best seller, Bucket seats, vinyl trim, carpeting are standout standard features.

How to make a Mustang GT First, pick your V-8. Any of four big choices from the 289-cu. in. Challenger to a new 390-cu. in. Thunderbird Special - ranging in power form 200 hp to 320 hp. Then add the GT Equipment Group, and wonderful things happen. Up front, a pair of 4-inch fog lamps are built into the grille, giving the Mustang GT the appearance of an expensive rally-type machine. Tires are F70-14 Wide-Oval Sports type, put more tread on the road for greater traction, look extra-low and sporty. Front power disc brakes take over to give you extra resistance against fade. The GT Equipment Group also includes the Special Handling Package: higher rate springs and shocks, huskier front stabilizer bar. (Competition Handling Package* may be substituted. Includes adjustable shocks, 3.25 rear axle, limited-slip differential, among others.) The Mustang GT exhaust system, with both the high-performance Cobra and Thunderbird Special V-8, is a special low-restriction type, with dual mufflers and chromed "quad" outlets. Final touch: accent stripes with "GT" (for stick shift) or "GTA" (for SelectShift Crusie-O-Matic.) There is an interesting Optional Reflect Group identified in the lower right corner which consists of reflective GT stripes in white, red or blue and reflective pain on optional deluxe wheel covers or styled steel wheels.
Many safety features are shown here as well as a list of many options.
The back cover of the 1967 Ford Mustang promotional booklet gives the 1967 Mustang Specifications, warranty, and disclaimers.
