DESCRIPTION

One of 999 cars sold to Hertz in 1966 and one of only 50 painted in Sapphire Blue w/Gold striping. This car was purchased from its long-term owner in Pennsylvania and brought to Scottsdale. It is in largely unrestored, original condition having reportedly had one repaint sometime in the 80's. As with many Hertz cars, the original engine has fallen victim to the ravages of time but in its place is a proper, date-coded 289 hi-po mated to a freshly installed Tremec 5-speed. The original automatic transmission is present and included w/the sale.

New BFG radials have been fitted to the original chrome, Magnum 500 wheels. Mileage is believed to be accurate and original as is all the sheet metal, save for the left front fender which was replaced sometime over the past 50 years. New rear leaf springs have been fitted along with new upper and lower control arms, front coils springs and Koni shocks. The Ford VIN has been verified as correctly corresponding to the SFM number and is listed in the SAAC Registry of GT350s.

This is a well documented, great driving Shelby in excellent condition ready for the historic event season. It's driven weekly so mileage may vary slightly from what's pictured.
