Saac 43

Excellent...Thank You!

The white 67 GT500 with the (1 of 3) factory 427 is #1947

Did you happen to get the ID of the blue gt500.
Any VIN plate photos?

THANK YOU again!

This is a new one for my files. Any photos of the grille or tail end.
That's a different way to stamp the VIN. The interior trim "A" and first unit number digit "0" overlap very heavily. Never saw that before on an original tag.

That's SIX '67s confirmed and at least 3 more to go. Two white ones (1 with lemans, 1 without) and possibly 1 Lime Gold left in the photo we've seen so far.

Hockeylife,
Thanks for that front view photo of the Nightmist Blue GT500. The vertical inboard grille is what I was expecting to see.
Sorry to be such a nudge, but do you have a rear view?


This Brittany Blue GT500 is proving to be a tricky one to ID.
I thought it was #0304 that was at SAAC 38, but the engine details are very different. (such as the hose routing, and different air cleaner)
Most noticeable is the current photo shows red shocks that are not correct, #0304 at SAAC 38 had the correct black painted shocks.

The details that are the same;
-slanted grille with emblem (not typical), small letter Goodyear's, right fender antenna, black paint on underside of fiberglass hood, same correct placement of side stripes, factory correct with no lemans stripes, standard non A/C windshield with no stickers.


Also spotted a second Brittany Blue '67 with lemans stripes in the background of one of the photos. So we're up to either 9 or 10 '67s now.

No, all I have.

The car is #304 but in reply #16 above is not the same car as #304 doesn't have red shocks but black ones

Anyone heading to the "Denbeste Open House"?

I have a big, yet easy request, if it's possible;

If you can, please check the VIN on the '67 GT350 in Brittany Blue (the 10-spoke car)
It's noted in the 2011 registry as 67210F8A02652, but might actually be 67212F8A02652.
Also, can you take a photo of the front and the back of the car?

Thanks for any help on this!
Rich
Did you get the numbers of the cars at Dembeste's?

Hockeylife,
Thanks for all your help!

Jeff,
Thanks for confirming it is #0304 at SAAC 43 and that it HAS the correct black shock
(not red shock as I thought... the distant photos of the engine duped me)

Bob,
No word about the correct VIN # on the Denbeste Brittany Blue GT350 yet. VIN # confirmed
Also looking to find out more (photos wanted) about the white with no lemans stripes '67, new to the collection. It's a '68 Shelby.

67210F8A02652

That would match the numbers of a unrestored car I took pictures of there eleven years ago

Thank You Bob,

I was not expecting that car to be a 210F (auto, no a/c, no thermactor) car.
All the other cars in DSO 89-2598 (20 units total) are listed as 212F (auto, no a/c, WITH thermactor) cars.
I'll have to check with Dave to see if the DSO is listed correctly for #2652.

Jeff,
I'm sending you a PM shortly.

Yes interesting since the car had Thermactor system when I saw it (auto, no a/c, WITH thermactor) though the tag is stamped as a "210"

Rich - you never seem to amaze me when it comes to numbers, records and statistics.  I think you missed your calling as a registrar  ;D
Nothing beats a classic!

That certainly sounds more like a stamped VIN error by Shelby American than the wrong DSO in the registry.
Thanks for that added info Jeff.
