It's obvious to me that the whole thing is an attempt at humor or to make a jab at some other idiot seller. I can't believe any of you took this as a serious ad.

After Lee Iacocca became prez of Chrysler Corp (1979) and got 'bail out' bucks from the US Gov't, Shelby was hired to breath new life into Dodge.

But Shelby was never involved with GM

Too bad it's just a 65 with a 200. Knock off a zero and the price wouldn't be bad. See it all the time. Every FE is a 390/428, every 302 is a Boss, every 289 is a Hipo. Lot's of buzz word hype. There's plenty of ads on Ebay saying 'Fits 1967 Shelby' for things like the regular headlight buckets, or the standard tail lights. People are just idiots and think it will get their ad more play. Lots of chaff, little wheat.

Chrysler's real Shelby powerhouse...





I did find one little quip about Shelby and GM. Was from 1990:

Ironically, Shelby did partner with GM to create a unique sports car in the 1990. It was called the Shelby Series 1 and it was produced by Oldsmobile. Only 249 were ever manufactured. Image: The Lingenfelter Collection



Not quite a 1960's Camaro.....

Once I had an old Ski-doo Alpine I wanted to sell. I put an add on the board at the local gas station. It read something like this "previously owned by President Eisenhower, Ghandi, Marilyn Monroe....and maybe Elvis too. You can add your name to the list for just $350"
It was so silly I though every one would get it. Few did.

I ran into these today and the lug pattern doesn't look like Ford car to me.
https://seattle.craigslist.org/see/w...373989537.html











I spoke with an old time wheel guy and he told me that he worked for Carrol Shelby when he was modding cars and that they made OEM wheels for many car makers and that he later partnered up with him and started manufacturing wheels as a stand alone business.
One of the gentlemen in this PR piece is the man I spoke with.

Yeah he has Carrol Shelby rims made for a camaro but not a Shelby Camaro. I had Carrol Shelby rims on my 1971 Datsun 240z but it wasn’t a Shelby 240z.
