1966 Shelby GT350 - Hi-Po 289ci, Factory 4-Speed, Rotisserie
Restored, Listed In The Shelby Registry
The 1966 Shelby GT350 represents an important evolution of Carroll
Shelby's original high-performance Mustang. Building upon the
uncompromising character of the 1965 model, the 1966 GT350 retained
its competition-derived performance while introducing greater
refinement and several distinctive styling updates. With limited
production, genuine Shelby pedigree and a formidable racing legacy,
the 1966 GT350 remains one of the most desirable American
performance cars of the era.
This exceptional example was finished from the factory in striking
Candy Apple Red and is accented by iconic white Le Mans stripes.
Its black bucket-seat interior provides a purposeful contrast,
while factory 10-spoke aluminum wheels complete its unmistakable
Shelby appearance.
Under the hood is the "K-Code" Hi-Po 289-cubic-inch V8, upgraded by
Shelby American to produce a factory-rated 306 horsepower. Power is
delivered through its desirable factory-ordered four-speed manual
transmission, providing the engaging performance for which the
early GT350 became legendary.
This GT350 has undergone a previous no-expense-spared rotisserie
restoration performed with exceptional attention to authenticity
and presentation. The car and its restoration were evaluated and
inspected, and the Shelby has been recognized and awarded an MCACN
Gold Concours award.
Its identity and provenance are further supported by SAAC
serial-number verification, inclusion in the Shelby Registry and
accompanying Shelby invoices. Combining its factory Candy Apple Red
specification, Hi-Po engine, four-speed transmission, award-winning
restoration and extensive documentation, this 1966 Shelby GT350
represents an outstanding opportunity to acquire a highly authentic
example of one of America's most celebrated performance
automobiles.
