Door tag is missing and I have ordered a registry but, trying to fill in some pieces of the puzzle. Like ownership history and what info is in the registry on it, was hoping to share a little info over Christmas but, does not look like registry will make it by weekend.

1965-1966 Shelby Registrar

This is who you should direct your inquiries to if you only have the Ford VIN stamped into the inner fender panels, and the underhood "SFM" tag is missing.

That was my next post. Speak to the registrar only with your Ford VIN.
Any pics of car itself, colour? Condition

Any ideas on SFM number? Can have a look at registry and give you some ideas

I agree they look legit. I think the rubbers in them are a good indicator. The repo rubbers are terrible and never sit like the originals. I hope you reunite them with a car in need

Best wishes

Same old tune - everyone wants a "deal" - we have had the same treads posted over and over again by different people. Good cars sell quick and for a lot, but unless you have actually restored a car, a cheap rusty mess like that 68 350 that was on eBay might not be your best bet. The reality is there are no cheap Shelby's anymore - you either pay up front or pay along the way.

We have a band over here called the Whitlams and they have a great song line "you buy now and pay later"
Good cars sell for good money and appreciate

Holy grail vs barn find, and if used together that's gold

That sucks Fred. Thank the Shelby gods it was only a blue thunder. Still hurts

I still have them, Ill have to dig in the box of "old stuff" and check

It's always interesting those transitional details. Keen to know dates too

Cheers

From my memory between my 2 cars which are early and mid/later, your in the later group which is the folded tab to locate into hole.

Yeah Bret is your man. Straight shooter.

Thanks Brian. Great car. Love the original plates and frames

Nothing to me. I have sort of given up on my parts.. sadly

Always good to see a car resurface. It's a white no stripe 4 speed car like one of mine. Does it have painted magnums still?

Cheers

Do you mean these brackets? Relocated more medially to accomodate for the override traction bars
