Hello SAAC friends,
This piece is being offered to benefit a fantastic kids 501(C) non profit automotive and racing foundation.

Just in time for Christmas!

Our partner www.youthracersofamerica.com is proud to offer:
Ken Miles' "Flying Mustang" 1965 Shelby GT350R.

GT350R 5R002 was introduced to the public on January 27, 1965, at California's Riverside International Raceway. Two weeks later, with Miles at the wheel, it became the first Shelby to win a race when it finished first at Green Valley Raceway near Dallas. The car scored more than 10 first-place B-Production finishes during the 1965 SCCA season alone, driven extensively by Ken Miles, Bob Bondurant, Chuck Cantwell, Peter Brock, and Jerry Titus."

"Colin Comer, author of The Complete Book of Shelby Automobiles: Cobras, Mustangs and Super Snakes, says the 5R002, the GT350R prototype, has historical significance that puts it at the top of the Mustang podium. It is the first of 36 that were campaigned on the track.

"Of the important Mustangs, 5R002 in my opinion is the most significant in terms of its contribution to automotive history," Comer says. "It's the one that helped Shelby give the Mustang the performance image it retains to this day, as well as turned Shelby American into a bona fide manufacturer.

This item measures 15 x 12, comes framed from the artist with certificate of authenticity and licensed by Shelby American.

"A must for any Ford, Shelby or automotive enthusiast with ALL proceeds going directly to Youth Racers of America." (EIN: 83-3578756)
