Restoration video of the Lime green 67 GT500 barn find from a few months ago

  RE: the Shelby manuals.  You'll have to add in your own notes that pertain to your car as it seems the manual really was printed/drawn rather late in the product run of the 67's.  Some stuff is correct for all the cars, but, watchout.

No idea. who has it? If it had a '68 date code there were only two batches that could have made it into GT-E's. January 1968 and March 1968. Most 427 blocks that have been found in unmolested GT-E's are August 1967 castings, regardless of when the car rolled off the line. Heads are almost always December 1967.

Jerry did a fine job on that video. Well worth watching!

Royce, any idea as to the origin of the non-original 427? They said it was from 1968.

I own the car in the video #2684 and the 427, its a later 68 block, I am rebuilding it now and plan to install it in a Ford GT40

I'm also the Fat guy in the video's...  Kind of a weird deal on this car, I had never met Jerry or Jeff until they came to appraise it, I had no idea it was going to go viral...  Hopefully Jerry is making some money with the videos!

Video seems to be gone.
