 We posted last week about the new restoration project that just arrived at Maple Hill Restoration.  Being big 65-66 GT350 fans, we will be heavily involved in the research of this car along with, obviously, the restoration parts supply.

Today, we have lots of detail shots for you geeks like us.  If you regularly read our Blog, you are probably used to these type of images.  Be sure to take a close look at each image.  This car is in very nice condition.
Check out the images of the original 289 Alternator Belt and those super nice ten spoke wheels!

1966 GT350 Shelby Mustang.  The original Mustang Data Plates were removed from the LH Door on the '65 and '66 GT350's.  Often, both data plate rivets did not come out of the holes.  Here you can see that one original rivet is still in place.

1966 GT350 Shelby Mustang.   This Shelby was produced early enough to be equipped with the Koni Shocks.  It still retains one of the original, unbroken "axle limiting" cables.  These cables were actually used to limit the travel of the rear Koni shocks.
