What’s special about this listing
Overview:
Here’s a striking 1965 Mustang Fastback built as a 1966 Shelby GT350H (Hertz) tribute. Finished in the correct Shelby color combo of Sapphire Blue with gold stripes buried under a high-gloss clear coat, this car looks incredible from every angle. This is an original "A" code car that we believe to be a replacement motor. The total mileage is unknown.

Pulley System: Billet Specialties Tru Trac serpentine setup with polished power steering pump, A/C compressor, and alternator (replaced seven months ago).
Cooling: “Be Cool” aluminum radiator with electric fan.
Ignition: Electronic MSD ignition mounted discreetly in the glove box.
Transmission: Tremec T5 with cable clutch; turns 2,000 RPM at 70 MPH in 5th gear.
Rear End: Ford 9-inch with limited-slip differential, 3.50 gears.
Suspension & Brakes:
Coil-over front suspension with Eibach springs for improved handling; traditional leaf springs in the rear.
Power front disc brakes with large rear drums.
Exhaust:
Full ceramic-coated system from headers to side-exiting pipes.
Wheels & Tires:
14-inch Magnum 500 wheels with BFGoodrich Radial T/A’s (205/70/14), new seven months ago with only ~700 miles.
Interior:
Black interior with fold-down rear seat.
3-inch “racing” seat belts, center console, dash-mounted tachometer, and tilt steering wheel.
This GT350H tribute combines authentic Shelby looks with modern upgrades for dependable performance, making it a standout on the street or at any car show.
