Shelby oil pan

[hueycobra]

I have a T-finned oil pan for my Shelby clone. I had to fight hard to win the auction for it. Can anyone help me out on what I have. It is a finned 71/2 or 8 quart T oil pan Identical to the cobra embossed open lettered oil pan, Except it say's Shelby. It has the baffles and i was told it is an original sold by shelby dealers in the 60's. I have been unable to find one like it. All i have found has cobra on the side. this one says SHELBY and open lettered and is small block. Did I buy a Rare item or a Pig In A sack?

Hi

Here in germany i guy also had valve covers and intake
manifold that said Shelby not Cobra.
As far as i can remember these parts are no Shelby and no original
Ford parts!!! These are just made like the originals but are nothing
special in my opinion. For a clone i would have taken a pan with
Cobra on it like it was and should be nothing else.

Bye Jerry

After Shelby and Ford parted ways (68-70) Shelby kept making aftermarket performance parts. Carroll had sold the rights to the Cobra name to Ford and could no longer make parts with the name.

I have Shelby performance parts catalogs per and post this change. Same parts but early ones have Cobra, later have Shelby.
