66 Shelby Carb For Sale with List 3259 Date 581 SOLD

[Fast Fords]

I have a 66 Shelby carb for sale. This is an early carb as it does not have a S2MS number on it. This one is stamped LIST 3259 and below that is DATE 581. This carb was probably used on a early car after the carryover cars. Someone put an automatic choke on the carb so it will have to be removed. Everything moves freely on the carb. The metering block numbers are 4756 and 4560. Price is $2500 plus shipping. If interested, email gandcmurphy@rogers.com  Thanks.

I had no idea early 66 GT350s did not have the S2MS number on them.  I know they were not exactly assembled according to SFM number but what's the best guess as to around what serial number the S2MS numbers began appearing?  Did carryover cars have no markings or were they using S1MS numbers?

Thanks

All 65 and some early 66 GT350's had the 3259 list number only. After the 503(Oct 65) per Dan Case date code batch was done I believe was when the S2MS number was added besides the 3259 list number.
