Ford Motor Company and Fender have come together to create a very cool way to celebrate a love for both music and mustangs: the Ford Shelby GT500KR Stratocaster guitar. Limited to just 100, the guitar features the Colby logo, Shelby hood stripes, a handpainted body graphic, "Shelby" and "GT500KR" mother of pearl inlays at the 7th and 12th frets, and the hardshell case that comes with it is hand-embroidered with Ford and Shelby graphics. Each guitar is numbered, with the very first one (#000) having been auctioned off to benefit the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.

The remaining guitars are available for pre-order now and will be shipped sometime mid-April. $5600

A new watch with a car tie-in the, Anonimo Shelby Mark II SE watch will be launched at the upcoming Cigar Aficionado Big Smoke in Las Vegas on November 9-10. The watch is a tribute to Carroll Shelby and the Shelby cars such as the Shelby Cobra and the 2007 Ford Shelby GT. The watch has a very classic and masculine look much like the cars themselves, it's as fitting a match as the elegant pairing of Brietling and Bentley. The movement is the automatic chronograph, modified Valijoux 7750 with small seconds subdial suppressed, 25 jewels Incabloc. It has a power reserve of 40 hours without the chronograph counting. The stainless steel case has a screw-locked bezel with a screw-locked back cover that has an exhibition back to allow the viewing of the movement balance. There are 500 of each of the two dial colors available and they sell for $5,500 each.

As Autoblog mentioned previously, a 1960 Lincoln Mark V limo belonging to Elvis Presley will be on the block at the Barrett-Jackson event in Scottsdale, Arizona on January 14-22. That lot isn't the only music-related car up for bid. Michael Anthony and Sammy Hagar from Van Halen are putting some of their cars on the block. The car shown here is Sammy Hagar's 1967 Shelby GT500. It was rebuilt in 1992/93 and has a solid lifter 427 Tunnel Port motor and Detroit locker. Sammy Hagar is including with this car one of his personal guitars and a signed case of Cabo Wabo Tequila in the trunk.
