This 1965 Shelby Mustang GT350 carries Shelby serial number 5S067. According to the Shelby registry, 5S067 was purchased by the original owner Robert M. Stevens of Knox, NY on 6/9/65, who subsequently wrecked the car when it was only 8 weeks old and scrapped it on 8/12/65. In 2003, he built a vintage race car based on a Mustang fastback and used this serial number, which is the car offered today. Power comes from a 289 V8 paired with a Jericho 4-speed manual transmission. The car's first race was at Watkins Glen in 2003, and it competed in SCCA events until approximately 2016. More recently, it has been extensively raced in SVRA Group 6 competition. It has been developed and maintained by Cobra Automotive of Wallingford, Connecticut, and service records covering the seller's ownership are included in the sale. This GT350 reportedly retains the original 5S067 Shelby chassis plate and is being offered in New York with some spares and a clean California title in the seller's name.

Hate to say it, but the tag is even a repro.

Not if the tag isn't even real!  Holy cow.  At least it isn't white.

I'm curious what percentage of that car is actually 5S067 ?  My other thought is how does this car not have a salvage or rebuilt title ?

Just the NUMBERS on the RePopped Tag?  What is the VIN# under the Tag?

First thing I saw. Close but no cigar. I spent 57 years on that island and can't recall ever seeing this one.

I don't think anyone has any misconceptions that this is in anyway a Shelby. It appears to be a well sorted racecar especially if Kurt Vogt is involved. Who ever buys this will shell out a check for a go fast track car, nothing more nothing less, a little tag does not make this car or any other car something it was not born to be. It would be fun to own, and the price of ownership will reflect a good vintage race car.
