He said the gt350 would be sold alongside the gt500 for the first time meaning the 2019 gt350 will still be on the lots when the 2020 gt500 comes out in 2019. I will be shocked to see a 2020 gt350.

Will The Shelby GT350 Continue Alongside The GT500?

That’s a March 2018 article confirming 2019 MY GT350s, says nothing about 2020 MY
I don’t think Ford has made any confirmation either way on 2020 GT350 plans.

I have a friend thats a war Vet who lost his left leg in Iraq, he wants a GT350 so bad and wants to track it.
Does anyone know if Ford would do a Special order to install an Auto with paddle shifters?

or would it be better to buy a low milage one and put an auto in it?

I'm pretty sure option B would be the way to go.
I don't think Ford would change out their production line for one vehicle. No offense to your Veteran friend at all. Thank him for his service.

I think the GT350 is the perfect car for a DCT, it could be programmed to match the power curve of the engine and potentially the track. Super fast shifting, up and down and engine braking.

Honestly, pass along our thanks to your friend, and my advice is to find a 2019 GT350 late this year and adapt the Tremec DCT from the upcoming GT500.
You should be able to find a well known shop associated with Ford hopefully willing to help a Vet experience a DCT GT350.
With Tremec as the supplier, we will have aftermarket DCT coming and the latest model year 350 likely has similar electronics to the 500.
Exciting concept, I hope you or someone can pull off for your friend.

The 2019 GT350 is in production. Mine has been built and awaiting shipment. Should arrive at the dealership mid April. Ordered it on 02/08/2019.

Ford announced today there will be a 2020 GT350 with no changes other than new colors.

But will there be a 350R?
