Looks like an over rider traction bar car. Exciting times await!

Smarty pants. Looks like the car is 6S170 judging by the license plate.

Na - that is the important part. Want to see it before it all starts
Sure hope the owner was asked before those pictures were made public and he or she was OK with that
Lots of Taiwan metal in those pics.
A view of the completed under chassis would have been interesting.

I went and looked at a 69 R-code 4 speed Mach1 2 days ago. Only carpet in it so I could see all inner side of metal. The rear quarters were original and solid. The problem is the owner said the prior owner who painted the car put repo doors and fenders on it. Patched the 4 spots of the aprons(NBD). I couldn't figure out why the doors and fenders were repo parts. The fit of the DS door to the rocker was horrible(curved in in the center) and both fenders to doors were really bad with no real answer to fix without ruining the nice paint job. I'm passing on the car because of this. Too bad they didn't use donor Ford parts and no hint of an accident as to why they went to repo doors and fenders. Repo parts suck. It's a shame they used repo parts on the Shelby in this post.
It might be lighting anomaly but sorta appears to be a crack in the LH leading flange on the T10 @ 18:29.

I noticed that as well. It looked a little funky to me.
Broken off and welded ???
I noticed the export brace sitting inside the car interior by the dash was wrong. The bolt distances are for a 67. Not 66 or 65. The one installed in the engine bay looked correct.

The export brace you see in the picture in the interior is a service part and the label looks from the 80's so during that period only the uneven spaced ones were available. Shop may have welded up the two inner holes and redrilled it for proper/correct spacing.
