mffarrell Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 Wouldn't this be nice to have in your garage next to your Shelby GT? Shelby GT 350 on ebay Looks exactly like the one parked next to my Shelby GT in my garage. I have owned my 66 Gt350 for 40 years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerS Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 ilmor, If I could afford it I would have both the new and the old. It's a nice resto. That car is re-listed it did not sell the first time around. The car I miss the most is the 65 Mustang I did a nut and bolt resto on and did to R code specs. I should have NEVER sold that car.

mffarrell Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 Have you ever had the urge to sell it? Nope! I actually think my car is in better condition than the one on ebay. It still has the orginal paint and some interior componets. It is a CA. car that was purchased at S&C Ford in San Francisco, no rust and no stories...lol. I have done some mods over the years, probably the most radical was swapping the brake system out for disc brakes. The car has 58K org. miles on the clock. I have all the documentation, org. dealer receipt, window sticker, order information, owner's manual, and so on.. I am the second owner of this car having bought from a friend for $2,300 back in 1967 ( I was 16 1/2). I have been offered $190K for it, and there is no way that I would ever sell it.

I hate to say this, but every man has a price be it monetary or something else you would NEED in your life. That pristine 58K original Shelby GT350 could one day be your negotiating piece for something you hopefully will never need, but you'll have it just in case. But you do have a price. All in good manners please. B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilmor Posted July 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 More pics here: http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/coupe/..._ford_shelby_gt Those are great pictures. I wish I could find them in larger sizes somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webba Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 My uncle has a 66 he bought new and it has like 32,000 original miles on her. I would love to have this car other than the price tag. I dont think I could bring myself to drive a car that costs what a house does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that you have both the '66 GT350 and the '07 Shelby GT. Can you do a comparison of power, handling, quickness, ride, etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccstinger Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 Wow - great looking car. If you look closely in the pictures, sitting in front of the car are two other Shelbys I believe - a later model Shelby Mustang and a Shelby GTH - i.e. the Hertz version.

stump_breaker Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 Looking in the back of the 66 Shelby I noticed the back seat is gone. Was it a delete kit or did the seat tumble and fold? I've been thinking of a delete kit for the 07 to save on some weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thefaygokid Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 Well..well..well....Do my eyes deceive me or do I see both a pony badge AND a cobra badge on this car? In a previous thread, some of the "regulars" chimed in about how absurd it would be to put any kind of snake badging on our SGt's. Comments were made such as "it would make our car a snake headed horse" or "our car would grow up to be dysfunctional because it would not know its identity" Maybe we should re-think this?
