A one minute paranormal short about a man and his cherished Corvette.

Hi folks

Forgot we also have this additional and original 1969 Shelby hood.

Needs some T.L.C. and it will be better than new !

As far I can tell it has the factory part number still on it.

And as many had expressed a concern for that certain "factory fiberglass pink material" it's got it also, so its gota be real.

Taking serious offers only, please no low ballers

Thanks for your consideration

Several trains of thought,  you have the purist, the economy minded and the one that wants the very best.

Back in the day they packed them with regular gear oil and they lasted or last forever.

Put what ever you can afford to put in, the one that is on sale or the premium product. All of them are good. See you in 60 years

This is probably the same scammer from a couple weeks ago.

Hes going by "Andy" now.

I asked him what was across the street from the dealership and he couldnt answer.

He is still using pictures of the orange KR on his fake websites.


That car is at Mecum auctions

Hi All,
    I'm having a moment (seems to be happening more often).  A December GT500 would not have the extra bracing like a GT500KR, but more like the extra welding on an S-code, correct?

Description:

This 1966 Shelby Mustang GT350 was first used as a company car by Ford executive and Shelby American liaison Ray Geddes before being sold with a demonstrator discount to Nagle Ford of Rochester, New York, in May 1966. It was acquired by the seller in April 1991 from Robert Oswalt of Oswalt's Mustangs & Parts, and a refurbishment performed by Mr. Oswalt at his shop in Leesville, South Carolina, was completed in June of that year. The car is powered by a replacement 289ci HiPo V8 paired with a four-speed manual transmission and has been refinished in white with blue stripes over black vinyl upholstery. Features include Kelsey-Hayes front disc brakes, 10-spoke 14″ alloy wheels, Koni shocks, a dash-mounted tachometer, a push-button AM radio, and a fold-down rear seat. This GT350 is now offered with owner's manuals, copies of Shelby American documents, a Shelby American Automobile Club serial number verification letter, a Carroll Shelby Motors license plate frame, and a clean South Carolina title in the seller's name.

The car was refinished in Wimbledon White with blue Le Mans and side stripes during the aforementioned refurbishment. Features unique to Shelby Mustangs included a steel-framed fiberglass hood with a scoop and torsion-type retaining pins as well as a bullet-style side-view mirror, fixed plexiglass rear quarter windows, and fiberglass brake-cooling scoops on the rear fenders.

Optional 10-spoke alloy wheels are finished in silver and mounted with E70-14″ Goodyear Custom Wide Tread tires. GT350s were factory-equipped with Kelsey-Hayes front disc brakes as well as larger rear drums than standard Mustangs.

The cabin is trimmed in black vinyl and features a Sport Deck rear seat, GT350-branded rear floormats, latch-and-link front seatbelts, a heater/defroster, and a push-button AM radio.

The three-spoke woodgrain steering wheel fronts a 140-mph speedometer flanked by fuel-level, oil-pressure, charging, and coolant-temperature gauges, and a Cobra-branded 9k-rpm tachometer is center-mounted atop the dash. The five-digit odometer shows 44k miles, approximately 600 of which were driven by the seller.

The replacement 289ci HiPo Windsor V8 was reportedly sourced from a 1967 GT350 and installed under Mr. Oswalt's ownership. Features include a Holley four-barrel carburetor, a high-rise aluminum intake manifold, a chrome open-element air cleaner, and finned aluminum valve covers with open-letter Cobra logos. Long-tube headers flow into a replacement dual exhaust system with glasspack mufflers and side exits.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission.

A copy of the Shelby American invoice indicates that the car was sold to Nagle Ford of Rochester, New York, in May 1966 and lists an optional rear seat as well as a demonstrator discount of $430.44 for a total price of $3,156.

Pardon me for being a little skeptical

Heck you didn't hear it's on the November ballot ?


Common man !

To the person who sent me a p.m. asking the depth of the thread on the tires.

A friend will be lending me his thread gauge in the near future so I can measure and post the results
