40 years in storage (since 1976), and presumed destroyed because it was missing so long and never in the registry, a low mileage original owner GT 350 Shelby Mustang is going to auction, Shelby serial number 6S163


This car began life as a dealer demonstrator and occasional dealer-backed competition car in Framingham, Massachusetts, before being sold to a local customer who drove it for a decade, putting on 55,000 miles. He never told anyone about it, and drove it into storage in 1976.

The car is in marvelous time-capsule condition and includes its five original Cragar Shelby mag wheels as well as every service receipt and document from new, including the bill of sale, original handbook and Shelby literature. Even more fascinating is that this car is not found on the Shelby America register since the owner never told anyone about it,





if you want to learn all the detail trivia about the 65-66 Stangs, read this article from Hemmings, but it doesn't say much about this particular car http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/2016/05/04/unrestored-one-owner-carry-over-1966-shelby-g-t-350-heads-to-auction-in-connecticut

Carroll Shelby and the #98 Maserati


possibly it's the John Edgar  Maserati 450S, in August, at the VIR


strange but the #98 was previously on Edgar's Ferrari, and Maserati 300S,



here is the #98 410S Ferrari, and notice the kidney belt Shelby was wearing over the shirt, that in the 300S Maserati. So, cars with #98, same race series, same Carroll Shelby.


Mokuleia, Oahu, April 21st, 1957. John Edgar's wife, Geraldine, in Hawaiian Easter bonnet, with Olympic swimming champion Duke Kahanamoku, among other prominent islanders, at Dillingham Field races.

By June, Shelby was racing in the 450S Maserati that Fangio and Moss had used at the ’57 Nürburgring 1000-km, and Moss had raced in the Mille Miglia


Here he is in the coveralls like the first photo, with the 450S, in August at the Virginia International Raceway (VIR)


Carroll Shelby, John Edgar, Race Queen Jan Harrison, incredibly beautiful, and the future Mrs Shelby. She was race queen at Riverside on the 17th of Sept, and Nov in 1957

the 1969 Shelby accessory catalog, is that the Shelby Lone Star behind her?


you can look at the whole catalog page by page, at http://www.mustangtek.com/Library2/ShelbyAccess.html because they were cool and scanned the whole catalog

The Shelby Lone Star is indeed the car behind the woman http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2013/06/shelby-cars-you-may-not-have-ever-heard.html





back cover of the Shelby Hi Po Parts above, http://www.mustangtek.com/Library2/ShelbyHiPoParts.html a different one below, something I read said the below was made at the same time but for the parts on 1964-66 Mustangs


to buy these (1st and last catalogs shown here) are about 600 dollars on Ebay, you can look at, or save the images and print your own, for free
