Here's a 1968 Shelby ad that I came across from Nagle Ford in Rochester, NY.  It appears to be on a page from a Spencer Speedway (Williamson, NY) program from 1967.

Thanks for the confirmation.  Much appreciated!  It's now hanging from the garage ceiling.

In the San Francisco area it was the Great Highway (adjacent to the beach) and Brotherhood Way on Friday nights.  When the cops would close off the Great Highway the racers would head to Brotherhood.  If they got hassled at Brotherhood they would head to A&W for a burger which was located by Westlake Shopping Center in Daly City.  Everyone stayed there until things cooled off.  I valued my driver's license too much to actually race but I was a willing passenger!  Those were the days!

I have another very nice 1967 Mustang/Shelby AM radio currently listed on eBay in case anyone is interested.  This is the 3rd and last one for now.

I generally visit the swap meets or flea market on the weekends always looking for something that I don't really need.  I'm usually on the lookout for vintage tube radios and vintage automotive related items.  I love the element of surprise and not knowing just what I'll come across.  Our flea market is pretty small now as we lost our previous venue which was a very large parking lot.  This makes the pickins even slimmer!  I went there yesterday and was on my last run when I noticed several metal signs leaning up against the legs of one of the tables.  They were all, except for one, the $9.99 type of tin sign that's made to look vintage with the typical "rust" around the edges.  But one caught my eye.  It was a FoMoCo sign that was larger than the rest (18" x 13-1/2"), was 2-sided, heavier than most (2 lbs), and had eyelets in the upper 2 holes.  I already have a repo that's the same style and size but is lighter (1lb 10oz), one-sided, has no eyelets, and the method of painting is different.  The one I just purchased has a very nice shine to it.  It was painted red first then the white was done over that.  It does have some scratches and dings but no rust.  I was able to buy it for the price of a cheap tin sign. One can't have too many Ford signs (contrary to what my wife thinks!).  I did some internet research and I'm pretty sure that the one I purchased is an original.  Are there any vintage sign experts here that can provide some input?  Much appreciated!    Craig R.

    Hard to believe it was ''abandoned". Yes where did the parts go? The street tunnel port pieces were part of a complete engine.

The owner replied to that question which was also found with the video.  In short "we bought everything".  WOW!
