Looks nice, thoughts? Aside from non #s matching and relocated battery

The rear top edge of the package tray seems to have a slight recess on each corner. Thought surface was flat all way across. Also, didn't they all come with the button top fuel pump? Is that a correct Group 24 reverse post battery? Is the master cyl cap anodized or black? Hard to tell for sure.

we all know it has the battery located in the trunk since SA  , i feel the text is misleading like it's not original like this ...Nice car.

Very nice car. It could benefit from a few updates to make it even more historically correct given that is the obvious intent. Yes Master cylinder cap should be black as it seems to be in picture.

Hi,
I will soon be relocating to Fernandina Beach, Florida and am interested in entering my car into the Amelia Island Concourse event in March 2021.
I have a 1966 Concourse restored GT-350 Hertz Black and Gold Car.
Any idea whom I can contact to get more information to determine if I quality for this event.
Thanks,

Apparently this car sold for $401K, within the estimated price range. Not sure if that includes buyer's fees?

Hammer was $360k...  "$401k all in"
