A few months ago, we made a post outlining the "refurbishment" of a 1965 GT350 Mustang Shelby in the shop at Maple Hill Restoration. The car just turned out great and so much of its originality has been preserved. Here is a link to that post:  http://blog.virginiaclassicmustang.com/2024/06/just-details1965-gt350-mustang-shelby.html

Any more, it is rare to come across an early GT350 in such nice, original condition, so to see another one is just fantastic.

The GT350 in this post was recently purchased by a good friend and customer. It was brought to Jeremy at Maple Hill Restoration for a refurbishment very similar to the one in the post above. 

We are not calling it a "restoration," because that is not what it is going to be. Again, every bit of it's originality to going to be preserved.

How about those elusive 15 x 6 steel wheels that even wear their original paint!!

We also have an image of a seldom seen original paint inspection stamping from the LH front fender.

I sure hope the new owner wants to leave it as a day 2 car. So so many cool things on this car. I had the opportunity to look at it, an amazing piece of history and would Love to see it cleaned up as a day 2 1965 GT350. One of my favorite things on the car is the ARA add-on air cond. Excited to watch the refurbishing progress.

Thank you for your comment. Yes, it will just be "cleaned up" and functionally refurbished. Unfortunately, one of your favorite things, the AC, has already been removed.
