Bob,

Remember that back then they were just used cars and most of us who bought them were doing so because we couldn't afford the price of a new Shelby. I didn't even know that my car was missing the H in the stripes when I got it. I also did not realize that someone had switched out the shelby seat belts for standard Mustang. Maybe one of these days one of my sons will restore it and make the corrections, but as for right now I am OK with what I have. Lots of great memories as well. by the way thank you so very much for all of your contributions to this Forum it is very much appreciated.

When I purchased 6S1854 in 1967, the H had been removed. There were two other 1966 Black/Gold GT350H with the missing H at the Dealership where I purchsed mine at the time. Most people did not know these had been rental cars at the time.

Received on Christmas Eve. Still haven't checked it out!

1966 GT350H Prototype 6S279

Ryan,

You can probably create the desired appearance using decoupage techniques. If you are not familiar check with local craft shops for someone that could assist you. I am sure that you can do it!!!! Hope to get eyes on 5S501 some day soon!

Dennis

NICE!!!!!!

The picture notes the car as 67402F8A00998

Thanks for the imformation Bob, much appreciated.

If it helps, the VIN you are looking for are - 67400F5A00289, 67402F4A00544 and 67410F4A01947.

Szabo, I have recorded as many "original issue" license plate numbers that I have been able to find. Howard got me started we he share infromation from The Hertz cars that I was researching. From that it has expanded to all years that I can find. By the way the 1966 Black and Gold Hertz pictured in Mustang Monthly was assigned the CA Plate SVR 416. My car received SVR 419 - (corrected Plate Number). Both are recorded in the Registry. Thanks for sharing the pictures.

Corretion - "Mustang Monthly" should be "Mustang Does It" book by Ray Miller!

I believe that the 1966 GT350 might well be 6S420, which is recorded as CA License plate RWD 816. That would be my best guess. Robert Vickery  Leased the car12/2/65 and return to Hi-Performance Motors one month later.

Thought I would run spell check. Hope no one minds!

So very sorry to hear of Randy passing. I too appreciated all the times that we PM on Hertz questions and information sharing. Prayers to all!!!

3975 is too high for the number of 1967 produced!

Thank yo for posting pictures. Much appreciated.
