For Sale, here in the UK, is a very early build 1966 Shelby GT350 VIN#359.
Originally delivered to Ford Advance Vehicle Operations, Slough, England in December 1965.
This Shelby was originally a white with blue stripe shell, non-radio, automatic transmission car.
It was painted blue with white stripes many years ago whilst overseas and then prepared for timed events.
The current owner, who i am selling the car for, had the mechanics rebuilt but left the old paint and body, which is generally good, very presentable but patinated.
It retains its VIN stamped 289 Hi-Po motor and it currently backed by an early 4-speed Top-Loader tranmission.
The original 9 inch axle is in place and is currently running a 3.50:1 True-Trac LSD.
As an early build car it was Factory fitted with over-ride traction bars and 65 Hi-Po engine mounts.
All Factory Ford/Shelby body VIN stamps in place plus original TAG.
Refreshed stock spec. interior with original Dash Tacho in place.
Car retains its original Car-Lite side and back glasses, plus original Shelby Plexi-glass and trims.
Car has been known to myself for many years and has been extensively rebuilt mechanically with all work invoices covered by detailed photographs.
It is currently fitted with a number of non-standard components, such as Edelbrock Carburettor, MSD Distributor and True-Trac but is supplied with new repro Holley carb, Factory Dual-Point distributor and original 3rd Member assembly.
Extensive document history also going back many years is available.
I have been involved with original Shelby cars for nearly 50 years now so am happy to answer, as accurately as i can, any detailed questions you might have and supply further detailed pictures a required.
