Sill Plate emblem changes??

[JD]

Hey guys,

Sorry to resurrect such an old thread... but on a 67 Shelby... completed at SJ late December and completed initially at SAI Jan 17, 1967... would that car be "early" enough to need the "late 66" style sill plate emblem? I assume not?

I have an NOS set of the two line, coil snake version which I planned on using but just wanted to make sure that the CS emblem was only for VERY early cars.

Kind regards,
Vern

In "judging" I would be looking for the "two line, coil snake version" as it seems you are thinking too.

Excellent, thank you JD!

That is what shows up in my collection of unrestored cars also. Believe you are very safe with that choice. Not that JD need back up on this

These are some NOS ones that I have, I  believe I have some others around somewhere. What is the application for black ones.

There ones sort of in the middle of the picture above the sill plate labels and 69 dash labels (GT350 and GT500)?

Those are metal tags that were attached to the drivers side door jamb - rear - above the Ford warranty/door tag

Thanks Jeff. What years? 69/70 only?

Can't think of where they were used any other place than that

Just to be clear the Snake one line version is the last used of the three styles used in 67.

Any idea of  the date or Shelby number when this occurred? I understand this may be a fuzzy number/date -- just like other things at SA in 67.

Fuzzy line. SA didn't keep track of things like this and it is up to enthusiasts to document with observations. I would be interested if someone else can put a pin on the timeline.

I cant pinpoint a timeline, but I can put a number to the sill plate. That is a picture of my car pre restoration taken by JEFF as 1189 was being documented back in the day. Thanks Jeff!

The double line second picture is mine!

From what I've got the change was much earlier than 1189. Just an example of one of those "later" versions
