Sadly...(I guess it is a bit sad)..but it may be time to start stowing some of the original parts away. Can anyone recommend a good source for Magnum 500 wheels? Repops that are quite faithful. Who have you bought from? And..tires. What would be a good choice to keep the car looking stock? What was considered original and correct for 66 H cars? What would you use for just street driving today? Thanks
Ron, I sent you a message directly a few days ago, after I saw you were right near me. Did you try Criag @ Paradise for the rims? If you got the latest Shelby American, they confirmed that your car is one of the 350 H 4 spd's. Mike E. Northport SFM 5 017 67 # 1385 Former owner of SFM6S1446
Hi Mike.... (just saw the PM this a.m.)... Yes...we are close. Let's swap numbers via PM and we'll get together. Where is 'Paradise' located? URL? I saw that article last night as well... I thought the number was in the 90's, but they say 86, including the prototype, had 4-speeds. Thanks
see page 73 of the latest Shelby American <#75>, he does exceptional work. Craig is originally from LI. email me direct Shelby6T5@aol.com Mike
Really you have no choice when it comes to buying a tire that will look "original" Sorry As for wheels I don't believe any one makes (or can legally) good reproduction wheels. If you have original wheels (which also should be dated for your car) have them simply replated
