Y'all are a wealth of information!  Thank you for taking the time to educate me.  I spent an hour online looking for what these "kits" might look like...love that you had literature to share!

My Dad's 30 year Mass title said Make:Ford Model: Mustang Trim: Shelby with VIN: SFM5S062
When having the title reissued, I asked to switch the Make to "Shelby" and Model to "GT350".  This 20 something lady across the counter said "Oh my god!  I love those cars!!  Of course, who could have made such a mistake?!?!"

Go figure

Shelby kits sold in 1965 to install on stock Mustangs?
This car was delivered to Harr Ford from Shelby American in street configuration and dealer modified for drag racing at the dealership by my father, Gus Zuidema and I'm sure a number of other Harr technicians.
My father entered the car in concours event at a SAAC meet in S Mass sometime around 2010.  The judging hit him up for a loose badge, but not the style.  Sadly, he has since passed.  Can I assume this round badge is period correct and appropriate?  Hell, it's in pics from 1965! I'm looking to tighten the car up some.  It has the wrong alt belt, voltage regulator, and color battery cable.  Easy peasy stuff for me.

Hey yall.  Anyone ever seen the round Shelby emblem used on the grill in this attached pic from 1965?
We still have it on the car today, never seen it on another car.  Curious the story here.
