Since the subject of Clones was raised in another column I answered an ad for a 66 Hertz GT350. The guy said it was not the correct number on the fender, and continued,'its SFM6S514 on one fender and....6T09K100514 on the other ', and the pictures showed power steering, wonkie headers, steel pan, and an admitted 351W in it with a C4. Do we have an altered number do you think? He wants $85 large.<img src=images/icon_smile_evil.gif border=0 align=middle>

You can check with SAAC but all the Shelby's were built in the San Jose plant - should be an "R" not a "T" (New Jersey) in the serial number.

I hope that is $8500....not $85000 - 'cause that is just stupid!

The guy probably just doesn't know and thinks he has a real Shelby.

It is still a K car.

<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote> Do we have an altered number do you think? He wants $85 large. Lots of possible reasons for what you found. None of them IMHO adding up to a real/original Shelby

'As I said, this is supposed to be a K car, and he claims it is, but not one belonging to any Shelby, so is the K valuable, and could it have that low a number? " 6t09100514 ?

Not all Shelby's were K cars...

I personally restored a 66 Hertz with a C code and was the correct Ford VIN# and i know of a T code Hertz...

Yes, but all '66 Shelby's (at least normal ones), were built at the San Jose plant... that's what we're pointing out here. The VIN above is for a NJ built car.
