68 GT-350 Conv w/Paxton

[Motorcity Mustang]

Looking at a possible purchase of a 68 GT-350 Conv with a Paxton supercharger on it (#03156).   Trying to determine if the Paxton came with the Shelby originally, or if it was added buy a previous owner (guessing it was added).    I have determined that I will never drive my MCA Gold Trailered concourse 68 GT-500 on the road, so thinking of selling it and buying something I can drive.  Anyone familiar with #03156?

Correct, AOSmith did not install Paxtons on any production cars.

The supercharger was installed by the last owner, not from a dealer, or Shelby.

The advertising at the time said 100 but 80 was closer to the truth.
