It's been a while since our last update on our '66 Shelby 6S1732 "clean up" project. We aren't calling it a restoration, because it isn't. This Shelby was purchased from an owner who maintained it very well for over 40 years. I guess most folks would call it a barn find. Going by the current use (or over use) of that term, it probably really is a barn find.
Most "barn finds" remain in poor mechanical shape and consequently are unable to be driven. There's also a trend of leaving the dirt on them. Well, that's not really something we were interested in, but we did want to preserve lots of the originality of this Shelby. We think that we were able to strike a nice balance, so the car will be quite enjoyable.
Jeremy at Maple Hill Restoration is handling the work, and it's running now and going back together quite nicely. Check out the pictures. We should have an update by the end of next week when we expect to have it completely together with the original interior back in the car also!
