1966 Shelby GT 350-H Backyard Find!
An amazing find!!! To say 40 years of Ohio elements have taken it's toll on this iconic Rent- A Racer, well it's an understatement. It will be interesting to see if the original owners son follows through on this massive restoration.

I don’t know how anyone could let their property go like that... let alone a rare car like that?

I have my doubts the owner's son will have the original body restored. There's a huge amount of sheetmetal replacement. Certainly can be done, but huge $. Not sure how sentimental the car was as it disintegrated for 40 years in their backyard.

Agreed. If you can afford to restore that car you could have afforded a dry shed to keep it in. Not gonna happen. Hopefully somebody who deserves it gets the car and the NOS metal.

That should be a criminal offense.

Not that it matters now but when I see cars like this I wonder if blocking the car up on cinder blocks on a concrete pad would have lessened the damage or it's a humidity thing that causes this much rust.

I think its just Ohio. When they salt the roads, I'm convinced they find old cars even off the roads and spread salt on them. Probably a conspiracy with the Big 3 automakers and Morton Salt.
