The eternal question every Mustang fan has muttered at a car show finally has an answer, and it is currently sitting on Hagerty Marketplace with bidding already north of six figures. This is a Revology Shelby GT350 2+2 Fastback, a car that looks like it rolled off a Dearborn line in 1967 but was actually built from the ground up as a thoroughly modern machine.Revology is the brainchild of Tom Scarpello, a 17-year Ford veteran who ran the company's Special Vehicle Team between 1998 and 2004. Tired of telling enthusiasts that Ford had no plans to reissue the first-generation Mustang, he decided to do it himself. The result is a continuation car in the truest sense: vintage proportions wrapped around an all-new steel body, a stiffened modern structure, a current Ford V8, and suspension and brakes engineered for the way people actually drive today.Finished in Acapulco Blue Metallic with Wimbledon White Le Mans and GT stripes, this particular example is a trade-in that came back to Revology and is now offered as a Certified Pre-Owned car showing fewer than 1,450 miles. The new steel unibody is fitted with upgraded hood hinges, a polyurethane-bonded windshield and backlite for added rigidity, and a remote trunk release. Inside, the Ivory Nappa leather cabin pairs navy blue stitching with power seats, a wood-rim steering wheel, and a touchscreen interface that would have been pure science fiction in 1967.AdvertisementAdvertisementThe good stuff lives under that long hood. Motivation comes from Ford's Gen 3 5.0-liter "Coyote" DOHC V8, rated at 460 horsepower when new, sending its power rearward through a TREMEC T-56XL six-speed manual and a limited-slip differential. A hydraulic twin-disc clutch, carbon fiber driveshaft, and an 8.8-inch Traction-Lok rear with 3.73 gears round out a driveline that has far more in common with a modern muscle car than a vintage one.Photo credit: Hagerty MarketplaceStopping and steering get the same treatment. Shelby GT brakes with 12.88-inch rotors and four-piston calipers sit behind 17-inch Shelby 10-spoke wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport 4S rubber, while a three-link rear suspension, double-wishbone front end, and power rack-and-pinion steering keep everything composed. Borla stainless dual exhaust supplies the soundtrack, and the convenience list reads like a new-car window sticker: air conditioning, power windows, keyless entry, push-button start, a backup camera, LED lighting, and an integrated CTEK battery maintainer.There are a couple of important details for prospective buyers to note. The car carries its own unique VIN and is titled as a specially constructed vehicle, with a North Carolina title in the current owner's name describing it as a 2025 model; the title is branded accordingly. It also still carries the balance of Revology's CPO coverage, and the sale includes a tire inflator and repair kit, color-correct touch-up paint, and access to Revology's online owner's manual.For context on where the bidding might land, Revology confirmed in the listing comments that this car's original MSRP, as shown on the window sticker, was $310,375. With the high bid sitting at $175,000 and roughly a week left on the clock, this build-it-right-the-first-time GT350 still looks like a relative bargain against the cost of a new one.
