I'm meeting with the guy Monday night, he works for a dealership and he's been very up-front about everything so far. The last time I talked to him, he had a chance to check under a Bullitt on the lot and it didn't look like the same muffler, so I'm not sure they're GTAs. He has 3 sets of mufflers that have the larger rolled tips and a few GT muffler sets. All sets are from 05+ mustangs that the dealership ordered then did aftermarket upgrades on (body kits, exhaust, etc). I guess they had a lot of Mustang parts, 300+, and they just need to get them out of there. I'm actually meeting the guy on Monday at the dealership. I'll keep those part numbers and see if I can match them up to anything on the mufflers.
So far, JimC and 157db are the only 2 who have claimed anything, Jim only wants them if they're GTA's. If they're just Shelby rolled tip GT style mufflers are you still interested?

If they are the Shelby GT mufflers then I'm interested because those should be GTA's. The Shelby GT uses the GTA not the stock GT muffler. And to the prior poster, you can get a Shelby GT with an automatic (that is the only way the Shelby GT-H came and the Shelby GT is the "consumer version" of the GT-H).
Of course if they are off the Bullitt (GTB's) I'm still interested!

Well I met with the guy today, his dealership had about 50 mustangs... it was like heaven. I just bought my mustang 4 weeks ago but I was almost tempted to just go start browsing.. he even had 4 blue and white shelby's lined up in a row going up to the entrance of the dealership. pretty insane.
The mufflers are apparently off of "the baby shelby", so the Shelby GT rather than the GT500. The mufflers have the GT part number that was listed above, but they have different tips than normal GT mufflers. They're a lot thicker and have rolled tips. I took some pictures that I'll upload in a lil bit. He wanted $30 for each muffler but he gave me a set of 2 for $40. To me, they look nicer than the "Shelby" tips that bolt on plus these are factory welded tips, no slide over garbage.
Since they're GT mufflers with nicer tips, I would say that shipping these to anyone would be pointless, the money you could spend on shipping would easily get you a nice set of tips welded on, but if anyone's local to SE Michigan I wouldn't mind giving you his name/number.
Part numbers on the mufflers themselves are F1-7849-L & F1-7849-R

the pic you show is most def NOT Shelby GT mufflers. They look like normal GT mufflers with the GT appearence package. This includes rolled tips. I knew it was too good to be true.
Yep - these are identical to the two that came off my 07 GT. My car came with the GT Appearance Package. I have two of these sitting in my garage now that I have the FRPP (Borla) Stingers on the car
Alright, thats what I had thought, something with the regular GT mufflers. Afterall, it did have the GT part numbers on them. Either way, i'm happy with my $40 purchase! lol
He tried to sell me a Yellow GT rear bumper to fit my 2 new mufflers. I told him I didn't feel like going through the hassle of getting it painted so he offered me a deal.
He'll have his shop paint the bumper to match my car and get his decal guy to match my stripes on the new bumper all for a grand total of $270.
From what i've seen, take-off bumpers are going for $250 plus shipping, then I'd have to either HOPE i could find satin silver ones or then pay to get them paint matched.. so while the muffler deal might not have turned out to be such a steal, I'm feeling like the bumper deal more than makes up for it. Problem is, I dont have 270$ to throw at the ass end of my car right now...

1) What's the difference between a MT muffler and an AT muffler?
2) What if I put an AT muffler on my MT car?
3) Does a GT500 use the same muffler as a regular GT? I found a set of "GT500" mufflers for sale and they list the part numbers the same as what db157 listed as a regular GT and they are autos (F1-7991). Is the seller defrauding? And should I pass because I have a MT car?
