Joe, I agree with you that it’s not a Shelby. Lack of an emblem on the decklid and missing fuel filler cap were a couple of my clues, not to mention the unavailable purple paint. What else jumped out at you? Trying to school myself.
Carrol Shelby opened a Ford retail outlet in the city of South Lake Tahoe. Still a few lookers that show up in public every now and then. Unfortunately, can’t remember the last time I saw a real AC/Shelby thing.
This is NOT A ’67 Shelby! I own an all original GT500 and there are some glaring ‘tells’ other than the paint and wheels. ’67’s were either solid colored all over except for the rocker panel stripe with the number designation or they had racing stripes which came all the way down to and including the roll-pan. Only ’68 and later made the tail-light section look like an after market part. This is largely because in the summer of ’67 Shelby told Ford to kiss his ass and he quit. Ford took over production, the quality suffered and the ‘Shelby’ option eventually died shortly after becoming (Remember it was the ’70’s) “a girl’s car”. That being said, this is a really pretty car and I’d be proud to drive it.
