1967 D.S.O. Sheets

"CUSTOMER" block has Shelby American only.

 

The information I posted was for 84-2574. The package number is 211F. That matches your chart for auto/ac/no thermactor (I missed that the first time). I'm guessing that also becomes part of the VIN?

I don't have any info on the other DSO [2576] That was Snakepits post # 19

Also, the totals on the chart need to be updated

 

1) 84-2528 – XL428 reports the package as 402F(G.T.500, 4-spd, no A/C, w/Thremactor, would you verify that the copy you have lists a 400F package?

As mentioned this Add/Delete sheet is formated slightly different from the later ones and does not include that information there.

Yes 428-4 spd wo/AC or Thermactor


2) 84-2576 – Is this the same order for 33 units as 2574 as reported by Coralsnake? Is this a typo in the order number? Was this order for G.T.350s or G.T.500s?

Yes typo (sorry - lots of keys and only a couple of fingers

GT350's


3) 84-2602 – Total number of colors adds up to 15 not 13 as stated on 8/4/2007. Which is correct? Or could this be an error on the DSO sheet?

3I+3M+2Q+2T+3D = 13

Sorry



4) Could you post the schedule dates from your sheets?

Hopefully they were better guessing at these dates that Ford was (often off by up to three weeks


84-2528 ..... 12-5
84-2549 ..... 1-9
84-2555 ..... 1-16
84-2574 ..... 2-6
84-2596 ..... 4-19 (Form very different from others)
84-2602 ..... 5-5
84-2613 ..... Can not make it out from the copy I have


Did find a page from 84-2632 Only general information it offers is that it was a group of maybe 13 cars (difficult to read)

Since its related... its not off thread

When you get caught up with this you will notice the references in the text to earlier specifications and letters. To save some time here are the ones that I noticed.

67 Shelby Add/Delete Sheets

First 67 Production Add/Delete sheet – 71-2501 (GT500) date 9-8-66

This sheet laid out much of the basic stuff used to build the early cars though later in production Ford revertered to 71-2505 (GT350) established on 8-22-66

Additional specifications were identified in a letter on 9-8-66 Reference number 67Z885 (subjects are what I deducted by the other notes and subject they were connected to on the sheets)

Hmmm must have over looked it when trying to posting all them at once earlier:blush:

7...........I
7...........K
7...........M
8...........Y
4...........Q
6...........T
6...........D

Not sure if there is any great new info, they appear pretty consistent - unlike the 65 orders for example, but we will see

 

WOW, I think one of these DSO's may include my car. It is an Auto/AC car. Important Dates for my car below.

Dave Mathews told me it was 1 of 10 Wimbleton White 67 GT500's made with Auto and AC:

-Order Received 3/10/67
-Car Seriallized 4/12/67
-Scheduled for Build 4/27/67
-Actually Built 5/16/67
-Released 5/16/67
-Completed 7/5/67
-Shipping Date 7/11/67

 

Is there a way to determine if a particular car was part of a specific DSO?

The 5/1/67 sheet included 3 AC/Auto cars that were Wimbleton White. Only 10 were ever made. My cars build date was 5/16/67.

I was wondering if my car was one of those three? I guess I have a 30% shot.

Any Input?

Mike

 

Fellas, Excuse my ignorance, still learning after 2 years about DSO's etc..

I think I have a copy of a missing one or one I do not see listed. It accounts for 121 Shelby's The prior owner was document hound. I think I have a copy of DSO # 89-2609.

I have something that says:

"Special Vehicle Order and Parts Specifications" on the top of the page.

In the upper left hand corner it says:

Automotive ASSY. Division
Ford Motor Company

"To Production Control Manager
San Jose, California

Date: 5-3-67

"SPO or DSO 89-2609"

Decent Date 4-26 Cent. Date 4-20 Sched Date 5-5

No Unit 121

Paint as Follows:

No of Units Code Description Color

28 I Lime Gold
24 K Night Mist Blue
20 Q Brittany Blue
24 Y Dark Moss Green
24 M Wimbledon White
1 X Vintage Burgundy


I guess this is the DSO for one "Special Paint" 67 Burgundy, correct? Wast' there only 1???



On my Marti Report is says:

DSO Item Number 2501

The DSO has all items installed and Deleted. I guess it is for my car only????, it is 6 pages long. And refers to "2501" which is the number on the Marti Report.

This thing was buried in Paper Work for my car that since we moved a year ago I had not looked at.

Mike

 

Yep, I have that form too. It has my serial number #2532 and a 2501 below that too.
