Hi Randy G,

This car is pretty close to yours, 6S477.  Have you seen before?  Looks like it is in Florida now.

Take care

Cory

  Cory I don't recall seeing it in person. It went to San Francisco ( one of twelve IIRC) All automatics and none with roof stripes. It does have the correct wheel center decals ( non Hertz style). I wonder about the "round " master. mine has a Mico. No dash "warning label". It "might " also have the round back '65 style axle housing like 476, 477 , and some others in the group had. Rarer than an R model but FAR more obscure and no "racing " history LOL.

Hi Randy,

Has it ever been concluded if these first white GT350H's got the "H" in the side strip or not.  I like the way you have yours set up with the "H".

  Concluded , no. Mine as I have related forever, had a "patch" in the center stripe as if there was an H there. When I bought 477 in '74 I was "anti Hertz" . No one wanted a "clapped out" ex rental car. I bought it because it was white and "we" thought there weren't any white Hertz cars. Finding the Hertz vehicle maintainence records in the trunk was a big surprise. In '99 ( on the last repaint) , I decided to employ the H.
