Just wondering. I know the early GT500s had the little red marker lights next to the fake air scoops. Did the 350s have them as well?

Yes there were some '67 GT500's that did have the Upper Scoop turn and brake lights.  Since they were on very few early cars there were more GT350's that got them than GT500's.

There is a thread ion this topic, here's the link to the thread:

Hello,

I believe the upper scoops function as air extractors for the '67 production run.  I know that 0100 has functional upper scoops.

Thanks,

The upper scoops were functional for ventilation of the interior through out 67 AND 68 production. You have the uppers confused with the lower scoops which were functional (in name only) for only part of 67 production.

   Ah, that is "eye level brake and turn signals" according to the early 67 Shelby sales literature.
