Gateway Performance

Gateway Performance is an authorized Shelby dealership and specialty automotive retailer headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri. As the only authorized Shelby dealership in the state of Missouri, the company serves customers throughout the Midwest and across the United States, offering a comprehensive range of services centered on high-performance, collectible, and exotic automobiles. Founded by car enthusiasts, the business has established itself as a premier destination for buyers and sellers of muscle cars, classic cars, and exotic vehicles.

The company's core offering revolves around new Shelby vehicle sales, including iconic models such as the Shelby Cobra, Shelby AC Cobra, Shelby 427 Cobra, Shelby Mustang, Shelby GT500, and the Shelby Daytona Coupe. In addition to new Shelby vehicles, Gateway Performance maintains an inventory of vintage street rods, collectible muscle cars, and exotic automobiles that are sourced and made available to buyers nationwide. The dealership also facilitates the purchase and sale of customer-owned classic vehicles, offering consignment services for those looking to sell.

Beyond vehicle sales, Gateway Performance provides an extensive suite of ancillary services. Classic car restoration, customization, and modification services allow customers to bring vintage or performance vehicles to their desired specifications. The company also assists clients with classic car financing options, as well as car shipping and transport logistics for buyers and sellers located outside the immediate St. Louis area.

A notable specialty is the company's expertise in Shelby continuation series vehicles. Gateway Performance assists customers in acquiring component or roller packages — Shelby chassis sold turn-key minus engine and transmission — as well as fully loaded genuine Shelby CSX continuation series vehicles constructed from fiberglass and aluminum. Authenticity for these vehicles is documented through Manufacturer's Statements of Origin (MSO) issued by Shelby American, Inc., ensuring provenance and collectible value.

The dealership's deep relationships with buyers and sellers across the collector car market position it as a reliable resource for locating hard-to-find vehicles and authentic Shelby parts and equipment. Gateway Performance functions as a one-stop shop for enthusiasts seeking everything from rare classic acquisitions to full vehicle builds, restorations, and authenticated Shelby products.
