I have a 1965 non- Shelby, bought as an SCCA car in Monterey CA, with dealer installed Shelby engine mods, (now seized), and I need to know which is the correct glove box door.
I have been told the plain curved mat black one is the one that the cheapest fast back came with, however mine has the flat GT door, which two owners have told me is correct.
Anyone know who is the expert? or has an original GT350 car? Mine had no GB door on it during it's race life, it still has the Falcon 120 wide speedo though.
Hello. This is an unrestored 65 Shelby. It, like all of the other 65 Shelbys, came with the curved glove box door.
You could also call Howard Pardee at SAAC. He's the 65/66 Shelby guy. He will tell you the same thing, though. 65 Shelby, curved glove box door.
Thanks for the info, the picture said a thousand words.
Second question, I am also told the headliners and visors are all white in 1965 fastbacks/Shelbys. (Until the last month of production for Pony interiors) Not that this would matter to a Shelby car.
Is yours white?
Hi again. Actually, all 65 Shelby GT-350s had black standard interiors. Black headliner, black visors.
That isn't my car. I wish it was, but, sadly, it is not. A friend of mine does a lot of work for the owner of that car.
Hi again. As I said, it's not my car. The guy has the original Ford shifter, which he plans on using when he restores the car, but, I have it on very reliable authority that he won't be restoring that car any time in the future, near or distant, because the car is just way too much fun to drive.
Thanks for the GBD and Interior color information, should make my restoration easy. I already have the new curved glove box door in hand, heavy little bugger.
I took a closer look at the driver side dash on that picture. Is the speedo correct on that 65? I thought the 65's had the wide-standard 120 mph speedo? The cheap o interior.
Hi again. And I was just about to get on Rodbender's case for not noticing that. . The original owner of that car bought it as a race car, and raced it from day one. It also won the first race it was in, and whole bunch more after that. One of things that he did to that car was to put the 66 style instrument pod in, instead of the idiot light, Falcon-style speedo instrument cluster that it came with. So no, that speedo is not 'correct', but this particular car has had that instrument cluster since late 65, so it's part of that cars history.
Thanks for that detail, I have all the original dash parts from mine, that speedo was retained in mine during it's racing career. The driver put the gauges on the dash top without the pad, sometime in 65.
Hi again. This car has a pretty neat history. The original owner of it also had a Cobra that he was racing in the early 70s. He was using the GT-350 to pull the trailer that hauled the Cobra. Those Cobras were kind of finicky sometimes, so, when the Cobra started acting goofy, he would unhook the trailer and take the GT-350 out to race. He never had a bit of trouble out that car. He also had an R-model, but he said that this car was a little faster than the R model.
