Not possible. Has information that the original 351 W is/was in Norway.

Ok,I was wrong here,I thought if it was engineering car it could be another type of engine in it,but there was a cleveland type in the car sometime in Norway.

John, jeg mener og huske at det var firmaet som er i slekt med en av guttaboys som stod for ovehalingen.

I seem to remember a previous mention of "Shelby Engineering" considering a Cleveland for their production. It was only a 25hp increase and it was dismissed as a result.

Doesn't that information come from the "minutes of the meetings" and wasn't it said that two cars were tested?

The point of the "Engineering cars" was to try or test proposals and to say that they were only "built" one way is a contradiction to the reality since you have to say how it "existed" on a specific date such as the EFI?

They did use Cleveland motors in some engineering cars.

The conversation was specific to serial number 2

Performance was not the only consideration. Emmisions were also part of the equation

Maybe he's a genius and that's why no one else knows what he is talking about?

By me mentioning 0002 in Norway got john b. and tor looking for 0004 as when u are looking for a certain car u need help from all over the world and the few Shelby people outside of north America know where these cars are in other countries across the pond. I went to Alaska last summer to buy a Shelby and talked to 3 ford guys and they knew where all the shelbys were in Alaska and Yukon.
