Description
The 1966 Shelby Mustang GT350-H was a special edition of the Shelby Mustang GT350 available for rent through Hertz Sports Car Club. Most of these cars came with a high-performance automatic transmission, though a limited number were available with a 4-speed manual transmission for purists who could demonstrate their ability to operate a manual gearbox. The "H" in GT350-H stands for Hertz, and the cars were available in a standard black with two broad gold stripes color scheme, though other options were also available. The GT350-H featured the occasional rear seats and mag-type wheels as options, and it was designed to fulfill the FIA's minimum production requirement for Group 2 sedan racing if Shelby or Hertz wanted to race the car.
This particular 1966 GT-H is a great example for today's enthusiast. The exterior paint is in fantastic shape with deep gold flakes that garner the attention of fellow motorist.
The K-code 289 engine is mated to the original 3 speed C4 transmission. Long tube headers are mated to a true dual exhaust system. Rear end gears have been changed from 4:11's to a 2:75 rear gear ratio for low RPM highway cruising. (4:11's still available) A classic auto air A/ C system has been fitted to the car that blows ice cold.
This 289 Shelby GT-H is a fantastic driving car and would fit great in any collectors garage.
