Never heard of Shelby modifying these early Fairlanes with a Paxton blower, 4.33 gears, and fiberglass front end parts, but that's what the seller claims. Awesome car, and I'd love to hear whether the Shelby story has any merit.

It better have some Shelby provenance to ask $75K!

That is a cool and rare 63 Kcode Hipo Fairlane with a window sticker and a cool letter from Ak Miller on behalf of Ford. The Shelby/Lightning Bolt story is unnecessary added BS. There's no timeline that makes sense for Shelby to mess with '63 Fairlanes and fit them with Paxton Superchargers.
