Hi every body,
as a K and shelby fanatic and owning a 67 GT-350, I finally bought my GT K coupe that I was looking for 10 years. I spotted this coupe in a body shop in Montreal, Quebec (1997) where I went to make an estimate for the insurance company that I work. The car was sitting there beside a 1963 t-bird. The owner explained to me that he bought the Koupe from Oklahoma with all the transactions paper since 1970 including the owner card, owner manual with the original first owner and the serial number typed in it. Everything on the car is original and all number mathing, the only thing the owner did is an engine rebuilt and took care about all the tags (carburator and engine tag). The rest of the kar need to be restore, the structure is very solid with only a small hole in the left front floor pan (2¨x4) and in the quarters panels. The paint is original in about 80%. The kar is in the registry ¨fourth edition¨. The guy was not willing to sell it but every time I went there we spoke togeter about cars, btw I bought his 63 t-bird and drove it during a year 1/2. One day he said to me that he was ready to sell it to my because he known that I am a very fanatic about hi-performance mustang but the price was very too high at my eyes. 2 years ago, I return to the garage to see if the car was there , and what I founded war a closed garage with no more information about this. I was very disapointed and regreted to past beside this koupe. BUT a miracle arrived 1 month ago when one of my good friend (a used car seller and another mustang nut)called me to ask me if I was interesting about a midnight blue 66 GT K code ??????????, I saided what? not the one I was looking for , and finally I jumped on it. So this is my history . There is only one bug on this K, everything is coresponding except one important point, the serial number in the left front apron is stamp with a T insteed of A K and I garantied that the kar is a real gt k code, the fact that the kar is not restore can show the truth but once restore , people will say that it's a clone with a 6 cylinder!!!!!.
I did not remove the right fender to see if the serial number is ok, but plan to do this in the next 2 month.
What do you suggest?.
Thank's
