Back in the day, you could rent a real #Shelby #Mustang. In the mid-1960s, Hertz pulled off one of the coolest marketing stunts in automotive history: the “Rent-a-Racer” program. Working with Carroll Shelby, they offered customers the chance to rent a high-performance Shelby GT350 Mustang for just $17 a day and 17 cents a mile.

ClassicCars TV presents this 1966 Shelby GT350-H. Though originally a Hertz Rent-A-Racer, this Shelby American Mustang has been transformed into a Group B vintage SCCA race car with a meticulously built Hi-Po 289 tuned for 110 octane racing fuel, full roll cage, fuel cell, and Accusump system. Yet, despite its racing pedigree, this GT350-H retains its street-legal status, complete with functioning lights and turn signals. #shelbygt350 #hertz #Mustang #gt350 | ClassicCars.com
