Hello Rich,

I don't have details, but I believe the following magazines also have '67 Shelby articles:

December 1966 "Autocar"
January 1967 "Autotopics"
February 1967 "Cars"
August 1967 "Speed and Supercar"
August 1967 "Drag Strip"
April 15, 1967 "Competition Press and Autoweek" (Super Snake Tire Test)
February 1968 "Cars" (Super Tuning Shelby's Stallion)

Just for your info, 0100 is described and one photo of its interior appears in the April 1967 issue of Motor Trend.  It was loaned to them for the Corvette comparison article.  The magazine wanted a 4-speed car for the comparison, so 0100 was not used.

Thanks,
Eric

Excellent list of additions Eric!

I completely overlooked the two Super Snake articles. I'll add those to my first post with the car number info.
Those others may prove more elusive to find out which cars (models) are in them.

THANK YOU!

Thanks RR.
We have the May "Ford Times" issues covered, but not the Swedish magazine.
Would you happen to know the name and the date?

Hi Rich & all 67 folks,
The Swedish article was courtesy of Texas Swede and he was trying to source it--maybe he can help out once again...it was great to see a completely different set of pics,not to mention the
Swedish writing.I am slowly finding Track and Traffic and the Jan 67 cover shot is awesome....just need to get a copy.

Wait, new/old pictures from LAX...Would love to see those pages, even if it's just a jpeg photo or scan.

That "Speed and Supercar" August '67 issue is another one I'd like to see the article / pictures for.

I believe this cover and article was posted by Kieth "SFM66H" and maybe Mike "Honker" found the issue for him ??

The early white USL car with MI plates has both the misplaced fender emblem and the "GT" gas cap. The hubcaps are another oddity in that no hubcap cars were available early on, only Magstar rims.
