No, I do not remember the Shelby number but, my 66 was blue and the 65 was a number in the 42,43, or 44, a very early car. I can find that number as somewhere, I have th ead I bought it from in Ct.

I had a '67 GT350, #2189, and a '69 GT500, #2602. I really miss my '67 the most. It was a blast to drive! I am sure someone will pick up on this serial and pass it along to the rightful owners...

Bill Sander Posted August 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 just check the Shelby SAAC registry; they will list the current owners. Thanks, I did that and have made contact with the owners of my 66 and the Cobra. No one has any info on Don MacNeal who bought my 65 back in 1979 or 80.

Bill Sander Posted August 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 Wow, that's very nice of you, Bill. Do you miss them? I had a '67 GT350, #2189, and a '69 GT500, #2602. I really miss my '67 the most. It was a blast to drive! I am sure someone will pick up on this serial and pass it along to the rightful owners... Yes, I miss the 65 the most. It was a raw race type car. When I bought the 66, I had two children and needed the back seat. I bought the 65 years later when I had more than one car. I owned a 67 GT350 and two 67 GT500's but, they just passed through my hands for a few months and do not show up in the registry. Right now, I am waiting for my vista blue GT500. But, I just ordered it and it will probably be the end of the year. I think I am doing a super snake but, need to convince the wife that the $28k makes sense. That is the tough part of the equation. Bill By the way, I have talked to the 66 and Cobra owners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My new 07 is Vista Blue without the over the top stripe; you will love the color and the car. I am considering upgrades but have not decided. I have a 66 and a 68KR and love them all; just like kids; each one different but I have to say the 66 is my favorite child; raw and real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveshelbymustang Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 How was your 65 optioned? Stripes, wheels, steering wheel 15 or 16, radio ,outside mirror, any other difference due to it being the two digit car#63 prepped before the assembly line etc. Any old photos you can post?

IT WAS A WHITE CAR WITHOUT STRIPES. I HAD STRIPES PAINTED ON THE CAR. IT HAD THE KH MAGS, THE STEERING WHEEL WAS WOOD (DON'T REMEMBER THE SIZE) AND, IT DID NOT HAVE A RADIO. IT HAD THE LITTLE EUROPEAN STYLE MIRROR. IT HAD A BLUE DOT SPARE. I NEED TO TRY TO FIND THE OLD PHOTOS BUT, IT HAS BEE 27 YEARS SINCE I SOLD IT SO, THEY ARE PROBABLY GONE. THANKS.
