The day many have waited for has finally come and the owner of the 1st 2007 Shelby GT500 was on hand to accept the keys from Carroll Shelby himself as the car rolled off the assembly line. Ron Pratte, who you might remember won the auction at Barrett-Jackson 2006 for the right to purchase the first GT500. Ron ended up paying $600K to purchase and have it delivered by Carroll Shelby at AutoAlliance. Ron chose to have his car made in Grabber Orange with Tungsten stripes. Mr. Shelby also signed the car on the passenger side glove box.
