Still wanting to add a 289 Cobra, Dreaming there though!
Sounds like the makings of a HIPO fourms get-to-gether in Dallas. Now just need to decide on when and where!

I am just north of Mckinney. We should get our 66 K coupes together sometime!
Larry
Nice car! What part of Tx. do you hail from?
Larry
I believe there was a 65 Shelby that was tested with a Paxton and fitted with Thunderbird tail lights. Might be the car that fred raced.
I have done alot to my 66 GT 350 but I still don't think it would beat my bone stock 69 Mustang scj coupe in the 1/4 mile.
Larry
Just an add on, but well worth doing!!!!!!!
Larry
Congratulations, it's good to hear someone will have some extra money. Now should be a great time to find just the right car at a nice price. Happy hunting!!!!
Larry
I paid 18K for my 66 KGT coupe 11 months ago. Been driving it ever since.

Bo wern't we having this conversation about eight years ago at the AER show.

I have been cutting the hurst handles off and welding my own adaptor plates on any 69 4speeds I have owned for years. It's not hard to do.
Larry
My Shelby revs alot quicker than my other K codes. Might have to do with the Paxton and 2.5" exaust. I regularly take the Shelby to 7 grand, Not the original engine. My other two Kars are original engine cars and I limit them to 6 grand.
Larry
Having ridden in 5S206 I would never concider putting side exaust on any of my cars.

Quote from RPMProbably be lucky to get $150 for it but Good Luck on $750!
I would give $150 for it!
Original rings on my 66 are chrome.
Larry
All I have ever seen was black crinkle paint. You may have to paint it black crinkle then parchment.
How is the Fairlane coming? Did I miss the photos somewhere ?
Larry
The one piston skirt that I can see looks very worn. I would say it's time to rebuild the bottom end.
Larry
Maybe OT and just my opinon, but I would much rather see an abused original tag on a Kar instead of a new repop!
