Wow she looks great...are you having any problems running bias. I'm wondering should I be on radials as I drive her a lot

Hello everyone my girl is ready for some new tires plus an alignment. She is wearing her painted mags, but tires are extremely small looking to me. Just wondering what everyone is running and pictures of stance and size would be awesome. I'm doing a lot more driving than showing....Thanks for any help.

This is amazing news

Anyone know of someone who is restoring the plastic/wood steering wheels? My Shelby is missing her original wheel, I would like to buy one and have it restored. I haven't been able to find a NOS GT wheel. Thanks

@rickmustang I wish I had the money from all the diesel fuel I've wasted looking at cars that the owner completely lies about over the phone.

Im needing an original 66 shelby quarter scoop for the passenger side. Also looking for a NOS 66 GT steering wheel

Yep I have been trying to get on for three weeks to nothing.

Finally, a BAT write-up that doesn't give a Shelby history lesson for the first 3 paragraphs

So I gave up guys, unfortunately I won't be able to take her to NC SAAC event this weekend. Fortunately I will be able to take my 66 Shelby though. Baldwin Performance Carburetors in Trinity NC is doing me a favor and letting me bring him the entire car. I'll let you know what he finds...

4 speed car...Thanks Shelbydoug

Hello everyone, I'm running a Paxton SC on my 350, and every time I brake at a light the car cuts off instantly. She always fires right back and with no problem. I take off everything is great with no hesitation. I come to the next stop sign or light and she cuts off again. She doesn't stutter, she literally just cuts off. I called paradise wheels, but as usual not much they can do over the phone. I have tried to see if there is a vacuum leak, which I can't find one. I know she isn't starving for fuel, because she fires right back up and runs fine. It really only does it when I come to a sudden stop say a stop sign or light on country roads. If I'm creeping downtown from light to light its no problem...I've tried racing fuel (paradise wheels suggestion), I looked through the carb, no problems there. Manual fuel pump is working as again she always fires up....Any other suggestions?

The pictures show the vin number stamped on the block

Hahaha

If it's the car I think it was, she looks a lot better in the pictures, then she did in person.
