I'm trying to figure out some details concerning 66 shock towers and need the help of 66 owners to get to the bottom of this.

It is conventional thinking that all 65-66 GT350's came with the washer reinforced shock towers that were part of the Export package. However, I am fairly certain my car originally came without them. I have observed cars at shows and seen pics of other cars without them as well and have noticed they tend to be near mine in production sequence. This is all very unscientific but would like to determine if there is a real trend or not.

If this is real I have two theories on it. One is a supply issue, why hold up production for a few lousy washers? Another possibily is later (?) cars without original Koni's did not get the reinforced towers.

So........if any 66 owners out there that have original towers without the washers could post your Shelby VIN and whether or not you feel the car originally came with Koni's I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks in advance! Dave
