Amazing same home town as Bill, He purchased the car in the spring of 1967 through Cady & Pier dealership in Sandpoint, Idaho.  He drove on street 67 raced the 428 in 68 then, yes He put a 427 in car and drag raced it and ran pretty well. Do you know Bill now?

No, I am from Spokane, where McCollum Ford, the authorized dealer that sent #344 to Cady & Pier. I now live on the other side of the state.

But I was just in Sandpoint last weekend as I am looking to relocate to the area. Is Bill still around?

Thanks RR, but I am not familiar with that magazine. Did they happen to mention the owners name?
Looking at '67 Shelby's sold at Marv Tonkin Ford in Portland, OR came up empty for a match.

Doog427 are you the current owner of #344?

Rich, RR (Road Reptile) is referring to the Summer 2021 The Shelby American magazine viewable in the members only section of the SAAC website.  The article on Bill Neale, the '67 he owned.

Thanks JD, I didn't get that before from RR, but now it makes sense.

Photo from the web.... not exactly 1967.

My buddy,  who has 2 bands,  just sent me this.

I didn't know how to respond quite frankly........

This Brittany Blue GT500 has eluded me for years and years (searching for the Shelby VIN).

It shows up often on the internet in these two attached photos.
More recently (January 2020) it was on video clip with Charlie McHose, the '67 Shelby designer, at Charlie's house in CA.
Anyone know anything more about this one. "550-MTE"

Got it!!!

Summer 2021 Shelby American, in the Charlie McHose article! 
Thanks for the source information from RR and JD!

11PM here)  he's talking about how it came  to Sweden, the video is shot in Umea, Sweden, about 400 miles/ 637 kilometers

North of Stockholm. he has been working on it bit by bit.  She will listen more in the morning.
