Subject: Another barn find story by DaleD on 2011/4/7 22:13:12 Yep, they're out there. A Shelby GT350.  They say one mans trash is another mans treasure. This case appears to be treasure beneath trash. This 1966 Shelby Ford Mustang GT350 was stored away in a shed beneath a pile of junk. Here is how it became uncovered. In 1966, Shelby American resold some aftermarket V8 Ford Mustangs with some performance enhancements and racing improvements. They built 2,378 and sold 1,003 to Hertz to be rented out for racing. Most of these were painted gold and black, but a handful were painted red like this one that was tracked back to a Hertz office in Georgia a few decades ago. Hertz rented the car for about a year before selling the car in October of 1967 to a lady named Anbeth Youngquist from Miami. Her daughter, Gail Youngquist, registered the car with the Shelby Owners of America club while she was living in Kansas, and on June 27, 1976, a Conoco station changed its oil with documentation that states 87,370 miles on the odometer. After that, the story gets blurry. http://www.mustangevolution.com/musta ... ter-exposed-under-trash/# |
