1967 ‘Eleanor’ Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 – Click above for high-res image galleryH. B. Halicki was a used car salesman who wanted to make a movie. With a little money, one big idea, and a 1971 Mustang Mach 1, he made Gone in 60 Seconds.

The verdict: Eleanor is the hottest piece of car we’ve spent a weekend with in quite some time.
