Jay Jancetic had dreamt of owning a 1968 Ford Shelby GT500 since he was just 8 years old. All his life, he thought that dream was out of his reach, but when he saw that Classic Recreations was building licensed continuation cars for Shelby America in 2011, the dream came to life. In the summer of 2015, his dream car showed up, and his life-long dream became a reality.
