Vehicle Description
This Shelby GT350, numbered SFM6S1594, was #1,594 of the total of
2,378 Shelbys built in 1966 at the Shelby American plant in
Southern California. Carroll Shelby's early GT350s exemplified
Ford's "Total-Performance" era and established an unbeatable
high-performance image with the trendsetting new Pony car. On the
track, the GT350 dominated the opposition to secure three straight
SCCA B-Production championships in �65, �66 and �67. This GT350 was
stored from the late �70s until 2004, when it was transported
across the continent to the state of Georgia for a full
professional rotisserie restoration back to its original showroom
condition. The restoration included a K-code high-performance 289ci
engine, a BorgWarner T10 4-speed manual transmission and a 9" rear
axle. Since completion, this GT350 has appeared at the Fabulous
Fifties Fall Fiesta at Shelby Automobiles in Gardena, CA, and at
Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion at Laguna SECA Raceway. With
California and Arizona history, this GT350 is presently in good
condition.
