66’ GT 350 Clone $ 18,500.00
This is a car that I had when I was in high school and put in my father’s barn for 25 years. When I purchased it had been hit in the left rear quarter panel. I did not have the experience at the time to fix it so I covered it up and looked for another car. I went on to restore a 65’ 2 plus 2 that I eventionly sold to buy my first house. When my son of 16 became interested in mustangs and bought a 65’ coupe and we started restoring it I became interested in doing this car at the same time. So that is how it started with this restromod. Every thing has been replaced or restored on this car starting by complete disassembly and sandblasting the complete underside and engine compartment, then all the paint was striped with chemical stripper. As soon as I finished the sandblasting I epoxy primed with PPG DP 40. Then all rust problems were repaired with new panels. Rather than write a book on the restoration I will just list all the parts that were replaced.
1. RR quarter panel
2. Inner trunk panels on both sides of gas tank.
3. Rear panel between the taillights.
4. Front and rear valance.
5. Front and rear bumpers.
6. All chrome.
7. Gas tank and all gas lines.
8. All brake lines and parts (ALL.) except drums
9. Additional soundproofing.
10. New bolt kits from Sky bolt.
11. New paint PPG base coat clear coat Ford silver blue. This is the original color.
12. The white stripes are under the clear coat with no lines that you can feel or see and they are to the exact size that Shelby used. The GT350 stripes are exact size of the 65’ GT350 they just look better.
13. Dash and all interior parts were repainted with the correct lacquer colors from ford.
14. All new suspension front and rear, every thing is new.
15. All rubber and weather stripping and rubber plugs Ford kits.
16. Installed FM stereo with CD four speaker system.
17. Remote trunk release.
18. Wheels are Vantage 17”X 8” torque thrust. They are perfect for this car.
19. New tires aggressive tread pattern.
The Engine
1. HP 289 with 351 Windsor heads.
2. Heads were ported and all new valves and guides were installed with screw in studs and guide plates
3. Pistons are high dome, producing 11-1 compression.
4. RPM Elldabroc Intake.
5. Road Demean carb.
6. New radiator and hoses
7. Really just about every thing under the hood is new and quality parts except the alternator.
8. Complete exalts 2.5 with Mr. gas X cross over and Turbo Master mufflers.
9. I just sent the C4 out and had it rebuilt and new touqe converter was installed before I installed it.
10. New rear with 380 gears and billet possie track 8” installed at the same time as the trans . was replaced.
11. That’s all I can think of there are many things that I have not mention.
