Re: 1966 Shelby GT 350 drag car
No, it is 6S011 , the first of 4 66 cars. The only one that came as a factory drag unit - the others were dealer prepared. Two were destroyed, one racing and one driving down the freeway - had a minor accident that started a fire, and they let it burn! Then it was bulldozed into a landfill ! The other remaining car has little race history and there are some questions about it.
All of them were white/blue , because they were all "carry over" 65 cars , so basically a 65 GT350 with 66 plexiglass side windows, side scoops, 66 gauges and tach on dash, but with a 65 Ford vin and all 65 GT350 features like over ride traction bars, Cragar wheels, lowered upper a-arms, etc.
The drag cars were pretty cool. I'll try to post a pic!
