We have just added some truly stunning Shelby Mustang images to the Automotive Art collection. Taken by Tim Wallace, these photographs show the classic American muscle car in its truest sense – powerful, classy and timeless. The 1967 Shelby Mustang is a legendary muscle car built by Ford between 1965 and 1970 and the GT500 was the pick of the class. The name Shelby comes from Carroll Shelby who was famous for taking Ford cars and upgrading them into something powerful and exotic. Tim Wallace has always produced exceptional car imagery and these pictures continue the style that has made Tim s

His photographs have been reques

The print is proving very popular on the Fotoviva Art Prints online gallery and has had some great reviews by fellow photographers. You can find it in the Wildlife Art Prints section where it can be bo
