    Looks pretty good - don't remember it at SAAC 2004 but I see so many cars.

    Kind of an odd car (automatic non Hertz) with a few things (minor) that need correction.

    Wonder what number the car is.

    Would be nice if the serial numbers were given on these adds. Thats the
    first question a prospective buyer asks. There were more '66 Shelbys with
    automatic transmissions made than most people realize.

    Not counting the Hertz cars, if I remember correctly, there weren't many since they were not very popular with the group that originally purchased the cars.

    I think I remember counting all the automatic cars once and it was less than 10% I thought

    Have owned one since about 1980 or so (really don't remember when I bought it ;)

    SO little time so many Shelby's!!!!

    Honestly, I just kept getting conflicting numbers until I talked to David Matthews who gave me all the information.

    The car was disassembled yesterday.:lmao:

    I find this add for a '66 Shelby interesting from the claim that it's original
    list price was $2975.75. 1966 Shelby invoices generally show a dealers
    price of $3600-$3900 depending on how it was equipped. This usually meant a retail price of about $4100 to $4500. Gee, what a deal!

    Regarding the number of non Hertz '66 350's produced with an automatic transmission: A quick look at the Shelby Registery shows of the 1377 units,
    205 recieved automatics. Thats 15% of production.
