Title: 1968 Shelby Press Kit
Post by: George Schalk on January 14, 2019, 09:02:37 PM
I just picked this '68 Shelby press folder up and was wondering if anyone has some input as to how complete this folder is with its contents. Vern?  The pictures I've posted are of everything that is in the folder.  I have never heard of a reproduction '68 kit so I am assuming this is original.

Any insight is much appreciated.  I also have a '67 Shelby press kit that I can post also if interested in seeing it.

Thanks,
George

You must've got the '67 Shelby 4 page dealer prep brochure.  That was a neat piece.

Yep never seen it before  but the 70 add kit is what i found as being rare as i had some pieces of a 69 and 70 but never seen the 70 silver folder before & both 69 & 70 were complete but not cheap kits.

There must be 2 different press kits. The first is from the "Long Lead Technical Conference" (LLTC) held on 7-6-67 in Riverside and the later version George has shared with us here. Here a link to photos of the LLTC version photos. https://stylescollection.zenfolio.com/p1008121659/h1A4A88E1#h1a4a88e1

George, do you have photos of the dealer prep brochure too?
I can't recall seeing that before either, just the single page prep sheet.
