MUNCLE MIKES COLLECTOR GUIDE
Shelby GT-500 — 2008 L9915 Light Blue
Orange rally stripes run across the light-blue Shelby, with matching GT500 lettering along the lower sides. The wheels are the bigger departure from the other debut colors: black OH5 faces with bright outer rims replace their bright Y5 design.

Look beyond the rally stripes
This light-blue car is another L9915 release in 2008 New Models, 1/40 and 001/196. It has smoke-tinted windows, a black interior and a black plastic base. The wheel change makes it worth checking separately from the red, white and black debut cars.

Choosing one for your collection
Inspect the narrow bright wheel rims and the orange stripe edges. A side view should show the open five-spoke pattern clearly; a distant photo can hide it inside the dark wheel face.
The source shows a loose example. The catalog records base codes, but no underside is visible here to verify one on the photographed car.
Collector questions
Does the light-blue debut use Y5 wheels?
No. The documented light-blue and orange version uses OH5 wheels with bright rims. The red, pearl-white and black debut examples pictured here use Y5 wheels.
