1967 Shelby GT 350 Awesome California Survivor

1967 Shelby GT 350 4-speed Original California Black Plate Survivor. This car is still titled in the ORIGINAL OWNER'S name and has only been registered to him. It's been in dry California storage since 1981 and has been carefully revived with all new brake calipers and cylinders, tires, new gas tank, carb rebuilt, tune up and is now road ready (have all original cores).

When you look under this car all you will see is original factory primer. This car is in awesome, original, rust-free condition and is all complete including all original California smog equipment. This car has a very rare plastic rear bumber. Of all the Shelbys I have seen, this is the only one I have ever seen with this. Don't let this rare CA black plate get away. The only way to make sure it's yours is to buy it now!

I've owned a few Shelby's in my time and I can tell you this one is going to see a lot of bidder action. I only wish each of you could fly out to see it in person and take it for a spin. There are some small sections where the paint is chipping a little and the clock doesn't work. Please view all the photos. It's a very impressive car to look at, and drive, of course. Please feel free to ask me any questions you might have. Good luck and happy bidding.

1967 GT 350 History By Biff Hitzeman
Ford redesigned the Mustang to accommodate a big block in 1967 and Carroll Shelby redesigned the Shelby. The emphasis was more on styling and appearance than all out performance. The '67 GT 350 came with the now well established 289/306 horsepower small block and a new GT 500 428" Big block. 1967 would also be the last year Shelby Mustangs would be produced at the Airplane Hangar building of the Shelby-American plant in Los Angeles, CA. The lease was up. Good quality fiberglass was also hard to find and California was a long way from Detroit. Production was moved to the A. O. Smith assembly plant in Ionia, Michigan, for 1968.

The '67 Shelby had a longer nose piece with a unique grille that was set off with a new Shelby coiled Cobra emblem located on the left side of the grill. New 7-inch driving lights were located side-by-side in the center of the grill, but due to several states making this illegal, they were later moved to the outboard areas of the grille. The hood was designed with a scoop that split the air as the center crease of the hood was incorporated into the molded hood scoop. Louvers next to the hood scoop let everyone know that the car had air conditioning. The side intake scoops were designed to funnel air to the brakes. The side scoops on the upper quarter were used to draw air out of the cockpit of the car. The idea for the scoops came from the GT-40. A coiled snake emblem appeared above the side stripes on the front rear fender. The dealer once again was responsible for the LeMans stripes. The taillights were taken from a 1967 Cougar. A rear spoiler was incorporated into the rear trunk lid. The rear of the Shelby was finished with a pop-open fuel cap with the coiled snake on it and a coiled snake emblem was located on the upper right corner of the spoiler.

The interior was deluxe Mustang with a new 8000 RPM tachometer and a 140 MPH speedometer finishing out the dash. A roll bar was standard equipment but now featured an inertia-reel shoulder harness seat belt. Due to poor serviceability and the higher torque, the heavy-duty C-6 automatic replaced the C-4 in the GT 500. Once again, a Paxton supercharger was offered on the GT 350 for added muscle. Earlier in the production, a 427 was offered as a GT 500 for special dealer promotions. Special wheels were designed for the `67 with 15" all aluminum center "star-mag" by Kelsey-Hayes. Also offered were 15" 10-spoke aluminum wheels. The 1967 is a much sought after Shelby with its combination of style and performance.

GT 350 Background
Carroll Shelby gained fame as the creator or the Cobra. He accomplished his, and Ford Motor Company's, goal of beating the Corvettes on the racetrack and then went on to defeat Ferrari for the World Championship for Ford in 1965. A retired Racing Driver, winner of LeMans in 1959, Shelby was approached by Ford in 1965 to Make the Mustang into a Race Winner. Shelby modified the 1965 Fastback Mustang to make it competitive in National Championship road racing. The result was the GT 350.

The GT 350s were produced at Shelby America's Los Angeles plant until the end of the 1967 model year. Beginning in 1968, Shelby GT production was transferred to Dearborn, Michigan. The GT 350s and their big brother GT 500s were some of the most potent and collectible cars in history. Shelbys were produced through 1970.

In his efforts to turn the Mustang into a raceworthy car, Shelby and his engineers made numerous changes. The front suspension was modified extensively. Faster steering and bigger brakes were used. A significant amount of chassis stiffening was added, and extensive body modifications were made. The Shelbys all used a fiberglass hood to save weight. The original three production years, 1965,66,67, used the "k" motor, a high performance 289CID V8 which produced 271 HP. Most Shelbys used the top loader 4 speed transmission, and all Shelbys used Ford's limited slip rear end. The early cars were more performance oriented

Shelby's fame has led to a steep increase in value of his products. Shelby-created vehicles are some of the most sought after and collectible vehicles in the world today.

An interesting side note as to how the GT 350 got its name: When the team was designing on the car, they all agreed to use GT "something" as the name for the car. When it came time for a decision, everyone looked to Shelby. He walked to the door of the shop and asked one of the attendants to pace off the distance to the next building -- 350 feet -- the GT 350!

    ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTIONS
    This car has never been hit. Has all original body panels. Has never had any rust and has none now. Has factory primer that looks like new on the bottom. It's an original numbers matching car. The interior is Mint and all original. Original wheel in great original shape (no cracks). Underdash guages and Shelby belts. The car is all complete. The hi-po 289 growls and runs strong. This car is a solid number 2 with a good paint job. It's just hours of detailing, and a nice paint job away from being a number one car (car will need front bumber rechromed). No need for a frame off here with clean factory primer on the bottom and a mint complete interior...
