Seller's Introduction
duPont REGISTRY Live presents this authentic 1966 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350, delivered new to Marshall Motor Cars in Ohio and finished in Sapphire Blue with White racing stripes and Shelby GT350 livery. Benefiting from a rotisserie restoration, this example combines its Shelby identity and period-inspired appearance with a built 347ci stroker V8, dual carburetors, and twin Paxton superchargers. The sale also includes the rebuilt original engine, providing an important piece of the car's history and allowing the current high-performance configuration to be preserved.
Overview
The 1966 Shelby GT350 represented Carroll Shelby's transformation of the Mustang into a serious performance machine, combining Ford's lightweight pony car with suspension, braking, and powertrain modifications developed for Shelby American. The GT350's unmistakable combination of Shelby styling and competition-inspired engineering established the model as one of the most significant American performance cars of the 1960s. This example takes that formula considerably further with a twin-supercharged V8 and modern 5-speed manual transmission.
The exterior is finished in Sapphire Blue with contrasting white racing stripes and Shelby GT350 livery. A fiberglass hood with hood pins adds an aggressive performance touch, while chrome bumpers and trim retain the classic Shelby appearance. The rotisserie restoration provides a detailed presentation throughout, combining the iconic fastback profile with the purposeful character expected of a GT350.
Inside, the cabin is finished in Black vinyl upholstery and features a Shelby tachometer, Shelby door sill plates, and a Shelby 3-spoke wood-rim steering wheel. GT350 floor mats add another period-inspired detail, while the straightforward cockpit maintains the focused character of Shelby's original performance Mustang.
Power comes from a built 347ci stroker V8 equipped with dual carburetors and twin Paxton superchargers, delivering a substantially more powerful interpretation of the classic Shelby formula. A BorgWarner 5-speed manual transmission sends power to the rear wheels through a Ford 9-inch rear end, while rear traction bars help manage the increased performance. The combination of a high-output small-block, twin-supercharger induction, and manual transmission gives this GT350 a distinctly serious performance character.
With its authentic Shelby GT350 identity, rotisserie restoration, Sapphire Blue and White livery, twin Paxton superchargers, built 347 V8, and 5-speed manual transmission, this 1966 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 represents a highly distinctive interpretation of one of America's most celebrated performance cars. The sale includes keys, the rebuilt original engine, spare tire, single-carb breather, Holley double-pumper carburetor, and a complete set of replacement seats, providing additional components and history alongside the finished car.
Inspectors Notes: We at duPont Registry Live are honored to present a piece of Shelby history. Vin #1333 here is documented from Shelby as a true GT350 originally delivered in beautiful Sapphire Blue. This example is enhanced with twin period-correct Paxton superchargers bolted to a power plant built to handle the setup. The driving experience is second to none, massive power and a surprisingly capable chassis to put it down. Rounded out by a high quality rotisserie restoration, this GT350 is the one to have!
