Unsure if an original G.T. 350 but looks like fun to me.

Cool, Love the sound of it.  Seems there's a word across the top of the windshield. Looks to start with an "M" and end with a ??  Can't tell. "X" Maybe??

Looks like he was shifting around 6500 rpm from 2nd to 3rd several times.  At 1:38 and 2:20 shifted at 6500 from 3rd to 4th.  Cool video 8)

I agree! Another cool video, deathsled. But I'm afraid it, too, may be a trigger.

Where's my safe space?

You are welcome, gentlemen.  I like seeing what others are doing with their Shelbys.  I am partial to the 65 and 66s but had a strong pull toward the 67s as well.  Living in Canada back in the day, very few Shelbys were able to be seen nevermind for sale.  My dad and I saw one dismantled in someone's backyard and it had the "feel' of a 67 Shelby but the whole front clip was gone so no dice.

Here's a quick deviation from Shelby's, just because my KTM vanity plate is similar to your thread title.

Heading to the mountains this week to take advantage of beautiful fall weather.

That is hilarious for a license plate. I like it.

Worst slalom score ever. He never did take a cone on the left side.
