I have all UNGOLD cars

5s386

Wow! High bids already. I'm very familiar with this car. Some of you have seen the "Before Restoration" pictures. I hope the seller is very transparent about the car's history. I'm going to keep an eye on this one. And, no, I won't make any negative comments in the auction.

What is a negative comment? I'd say if the seller isn't transparent  and you correct them is that really a negative comment? I'd say you would be helping the Shelby community out. Don't throw comments out there  but answer questions if you have  the knowledge to answer them.  WOW, the car came with a HEATER!!!. Must be rare! I cringe on most of those write ups. Too bad with the money they make they cannot employ someone who can write ads for these cars.

I thought I read there are differences in 65/66 And 67 and up floor pans?

Thanks for pointing out the differences. I use the differences for 69-70 floor pans as many cars use the "65-8" but I guess I should now be saying 65-6 floor pans. Being a member of the 428 CJ forum a lot of differences were pointed out for the 69-70 dynacorn pans and originals and what needed to be done to the dynacorns to make them look original.

No - early floor pans and late 65-into 67 floor pans.

Believe the thread on CMF (where where some of the pictures were borrowed from)  speaks to the issue and possible change date or range.

That hasn't happened since the first horse was traded.

So mid 67 cars and all 68s had the changes? The reason I ask I am going to be replacing my 68  floors soon and want them as correct as possible.
Thanks
