    Today's Coffee Walk is one that my team and I have put a lot of passion and hours into.

Now go on ahead and take a look at today's episode and let me know what y'all think!
    As always... go fast, have fun and have a GREAT WEEKEND!!
    This 1966 MUSTANG SHELBY GT 350 HERTZ is being offered for sale right now on Bring-A-Trailer.com
    (BARN FIND on Bring-A-Trailer)
    Bring-A-Trailer Auction: bringatrailer.com/listing/196...
    Auction ends Monday, April 12 at 1:00pm
    This 1966 Shelby Mustang GT350H was originally used as a Hertz rental car in Virginia and is said to have been stored in 1972 by its previous owner, from whom the selling dealer acquired the car out of Colorado in January 2021. Subsequent work included refinishing and installing a replacement driver-side door, inspecting the cylinder heads, overhauling the brakes and fuel system, rebuilding the carburetor, changing the fluids, and replacing the tires. Finished in black with gold stripes over a black interior, the car is powered by a numbers-matching 289ci V8 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission and a 9″ rear axle. Additional features include fixed quarter windows, hood and side scoops, 14″ wheels, front disc brakes, lap harnesses, and an AM radio. This GT350H is now offered in Texas with its removed driver-side door, fuel pump, and front brake calipers as well as order sheets and correspondence from SAAC, an owner’s manual, and a clean Colorado title.

    My first car was a 66 2+2 k code vintage burgundy fastback that I bought for $600. back in 1985. The only differences are I had the top loader 4-speed and rally pack. It was a mess and spent a lot to get it back in shape. The original owner special ordered it with disc breaks, traction bars and the 9 inch rear. I wish I still had it. Thanks for bringing back the memories.

Wife drove it as a daily driver to commissary, kids school, etc etc. she got lots of comments from other mothers. Also had a luggage rack where I put the spare when we were moving, etc. God what memories thank you.

    I was in the stands at Fremont Drag strip for 25 years, from 1962 (8 yrs old) to when they closed the track in 1987, I was either watching or running my own cars/motorcyles and one thing is for certain, the guys were indeed renting these Hertz Shelby GT 350's and drag racing them. ..even swapping the engines to gain those extra 51 ponies for class racing.

    Dennis! Please don't ever sell this Hertz G.T. 350. I am 60 years old. Carroll Shelby is my American Hero. The man did more in his life time than most 2 people have. In 2007 I rented a Hertz Shelby Mustang Convertible. It was one of my Highlites to this day. I wanted to experience what it was like in 1966. Yes, It costed a lot of money but was worth ever penny. My next thing I would like to do is either ride in a 1966 G.T. Hertz Shelby Mustang or drive one! I came across your video. Yes,I Subscribe. I learned alot about this Mustang. So it adds to what I already know. To bad I was 6 years old then. This Mustang holds a dear place in my heart. Thanks, Again Dennis. Still keeping my dream alive. Shawn.

    My dad told me stories of him drag racing against these cars at the Fremont drag strip in CA. He had a 61 SS Impala with the 350hp tri power engine. He rigged the linkage so that all the carbs would open at the same time. The mustangs got him off the line, but he took them at the end..... most of the time. LOL

    Hey Dennis. I worked for Hertz Rent A Car Tampa FL back in the 70’s until 1984. I know the shop manager who started with Hertz back in the 60’s. He told me a story of how for the 1966 rental season Hertz in Tampa FL had received a handful of these cars for rental. As it turns out a few of them were rented and driven an hour and a half away to Sebring where they were raced at Sebring of course. If your car has records of having been at the Hertz location at Tampa Airport there is a very good possibility that it raced at Sebring that year. By the way the shop at Tampa had to replace the tires and brakes on those cars. The shop manager (mechanic at the time) still got worked up (angry) relaying that story.
