What is the difference between a '65 GT350 rear seat replacement panel and an "R" panel?

IF you are referring to what we call the '66 GT350 rear seat replacement panel, with the raised reinforcement strips and without the spare tire enclave, then yes it fits the 67-68 fastback.

The 65 street panel actually fits the car also but the spare tire enclave does not match up well with the 67-8 profile and a bit of fabrication is necessary in that case.

Here is a picture of a '66 fiberglass reproduction panel in my 68 GT350. The originals are molded plastic and do not do well with any kind of exposure to warm temps.

Thank you, that is what I was looking for.

Will the 1965 GT 350R Rear Seat Delete Panel also fir the 67/68 Shelby Fastbacks or is it too narrow?

I have never been to an SAAC event. Just curious, how large is the car show? Will there also be a swap meet?

Well, they are held at a major Race Track if that tells you anything about the size of them.  I attended the SAAC 26 and the SAAC 28 and had a Blast at both.

Just for the Knowledge,  Are the 68 GT 350, 68 GT 500, 68 GT 500KR, 69 GT 350 and 69 GT500 all the Same or are any of them Different?

68 GT350 didn't have a seal as well as the 68 GT500. KR had a seal around the air cleaner.  69-70 GT350 and 500s they were glued to the hood and were different diameters.

Thank you for the Info.

From your Web Site:  "According to my information only four cars were built before this show. Only one was a GT350 fastback and that was # 8T02J110578-00339."If only 4 Shelby's were built before that Show, why does the GT 350 # start so high (339)?

What is the Steering Gear Steering Ratio for the 66 GT 350?  Is it 16: 1?

Did these have Shelby Tags under the Hood?

i got a bunch of car and concert shirts, would think that would be a great thing to do! Is that something that I can get locally done?

Just about every City has a Quilting Club. Just ask around.

That is awesome.  I have a bunch of the Tee Shirts as well, great idea.

DISCO.........

Not coming up.

WOW, $450 for Front License Plate Brackets.  I have two NOS ones packed away, may have to dig them out. I also have 3 nice 69/70 Cowl Panels too.

Looks like another one of Dennis Collins' "Holy Grail" pieces.  I am surprised he couldn't create a whole car around these.  It probably would have been a SCJ GT500 vert with Special Paint.

OR.... they came off Shelby's Red 69 Convertible when he installed the 68 10 Spokes.

Why didn't they remove the Doors too?
