 President McKinley always wore a red carnation for good luck but sometimes gave it out as a memento. When greeting the crowd in 1901, he handed a 12-year-old girl, Myrtle, his the bloom off his lapel, saying 'I must give this flower to another little flower.' Minutes later, he was fatally shot by a man in the crowd.

 Really nice to see the correct wheels and tires on this 1966 GT350. So many don't have them.

 Paxton’s Joe Granatelli contacted Carroll Shelby early in 1965 and pitched him on the idea of providing supercharger kits for the new G.T. 350. Shelby was skeptical of the idea but lent Granatelli a car to put the kit on. When Granatelli returned to Shelby’s facility near the Los Angeles International Airport with the kit installed, Shelby pitted the blown Mustang against one of his 289 Cobras. Granatelli and the Mustang spanked the Cobra, convincing Shelby that the blower was a good idea. Shelby promptly ordered 500 of the kits. According to the Shelby American Automobile Club’s Shelby Registry 1965-1966-1967, 11 '66 models and 35 '67 models were equipped from Shelby's factory. How many were sold over the counter or as upgrades in the garage are unknown Last edited by Lee Stewart; 04-02-2019 at 08:35 PM.
