Title: 65 Shelby found and brought back to life
Post by: deathsled on August 24, 2024, 04:35:40 PM

As the mileage racks up on my physiological odometer, I fear I may be moving in a similar direction as the prior owner of this car. Car number 091

Nobody seemed to notice that that is a 69 Boss 302.
Hmm.

Maybe the owner is going to restore it some day.

The other car in the building was a 69 Q-code 430 4spd with 70 sheetmetal on it.  At least that's what I heard Matt saying in the video.

Yeah the other car is a 69 SCJ. Been made to look like a 70. Very interesting story on that car. Wendell Scott had the car at his place along with 3-1971 old bud moore trans am car.

Did the Non-R models have port hole hoods?

Yes, they were used for roughly half of '65 GT350 production.
