These are the very best from the
past. If you have a vintage photo, please email me.
The car is # 1377. I immediately recognized this as the Ford design studio.
But, I had a little trouble explaining why Ford would take pictures of a GT500 in January of 1977. To further confuse the issue, this car
has been well used. You might have even noticed a little rust. Do you know the answer? Matt, the owner knows . . . the answer coming in January.
Bob graciously gave me this pictures from the wayback machine. Bob changed the color of his GT350 from Acapulco Blue. Love those flames. The car is # 1793.
Pat sent a picture of this bracket racing GT500. The caption read, "the rare GT500 is owned by Cliff Williams and Danny LeFevre of Canterbury, CT." The car competed in bracket racing with a 427.
He also sent a picture of his GT500 KR. He is the second owner.
Korbi sent this picture of # 2601. It sported a modified 429.
This is # 3018.
This 1967 is a factory special yellow color. It is number 2021.
Lance sent me a picture of # 3487 next to Mr. Porsche's finest creation the Volkswagen! The picture is dated October 68
James R. sent me some pictures of # 1449. His Alaskan convertible enjoys the weather. The picture is dated AUG 69. I think James swapped out his tires early on.
Lance runs the Grabber Mustang Registry now, but that's him and his GT500 from waaaay back. The car is # 517.
This might be the genesis of my obsession. That's my Uncle William and his 1965 coupe. The car is Tropical Turquoise. The picture is dated July 1966.
Thernell Clark looks rather impressive in his dress uniform. His blue GT500KR is # 4170.
The black side wall tires and hubcaps are standard issue for 1968 KRs. Mr. Clark bought the new car from Lewis Ford in Georgia.
Blast from the past! This is car # 1686 with it's original
owner.
I'll keep the name confidential. This GT350 Hertz car was rolled
by a customer. The car was sold at auction. The new owner, who worked for Hertz,
used parts from other rentals to repair it!
Rodney H. sent this picture of his GT500 #843 in the mid '70s
Robert S. got the car and the girl! His car is #3860
Remember when Shelbys were used cars and not collector vehicles? Greg Sali does...that's #2528 in the background.
Mike's doing a restoration on #3558, This picture was actually on a bulletin board, selling price $2400. Back in the day his car roamed the Autobahn.
I'm not sure which car this is yet, but the tires say it all.
Mike sent me some pictures of this very cool 1967
It's the next best thing to a 1968
