Lime with parchment is a great combo.

Quote from: thinkshelby on February 13, 2025, 01:24:16 PMThe CarCollectorClub user on BaT posted the following on Bat:
    185K for a missing vin number, registry wreckage story, and cracked block. I believe I would have let her ride.

I'm posting here to see if anyone has more info about the registry wreckage story.

The front end event appears to have been mild.

For many years I had Gene Painter repair the cracks in my 67 door panels. Gene was easy to deal with and did a great job but unfortunately, he passed away. Does anyone have a source they are familiar with that provides this service? I did talk to one dash repair company, but they had never done a repair on a deluxe 67 interior door panel.

Thanks

That is one kick ass video. Beautiful story and car.

The Plazaglas, all fiberglass hoods and trunk lids, for the most part began to appear the beginning of April and were salted in with the remaining Borg Warner metal framed hoods and trunk lids until the Borg Warner parts were depleted. With 67 Shelby Mustangs there are always exceptions to the rule however.

There were 96 red GT 500 cars. 11 of them were automatic with AC without thermactor, 2 red automatics with thermactor.
The Shelby records are here at SAAC.
I believe the SRG gets most of their information from the Registry and Marti reports.
I haven't followed this car and discussion so maybe the critera SRG used was for something different.
A red automatic with AC is definitely rare.

Ask a Registrar / Re: 67 EFFPI steering wheel

This long tab wheel looks correct and very nicely restored for a 1967 Shelby.

Hi Randall,
I would have the present owner of the car contact the owner from 1994 to 2001. I believe they may know something about it. If the present owner doesn't know them, have him contact the 1967 Shelby Registrar and he can forward their email address.

The son of the past owner of 67200F7A01298 contacted me. He has a lot of original documentation for the car. I do not know the present owner.

2 speed Hone o Drive is intact.
Thanks to those that down played the car pre auction, couldn't have done it without you! ;D

Very cool car, especially with that rare Hone o Drive rear end. Obviously you saw the opportunity and have the passion to bring this car back to it's previous glory.

The car is #944. The mistake was done by the person who did the layout of that page. Frustrating.

I have a late model GT 500 and a late model 911 along with my classics insured with Hagarty. I was previously with Heacock who is a great company, who I highly recommend. The only reason I changed was the relationship my regular insurance company had with Hagerty. That relationship allowed my umbrella policy to also cover my classic cars.
