This 1965 Shelby Mustang GT350 is one of 504 street production examples built for the model year, and was first invoiced to Paradise Ford Sales in Scottsdale, Arizona on June 28, 1965. Finished in Wimbledon White with Guardsman Blue stripes over black vinyl upholstery, the car is powered by a 289ci HiPo V8 mated to a replacement Ford Toploader four-speed manual transmission. Additional equipment includes Cragar 15″ cast alloy wheels, a four-barrel Holley carburetor on a high-rise intake manifold, a Detroit locking differential, Kelsey-Hayes ventilated front disc brakes, a fiberglass hood, an R-style front valance, Koni shock absorbers, override traction bars, dual side-exit exhaust outlets, a trunk-mounted battery, a Hurst shifter, and a dash-mounted tachometer. Chassis SFM5S305 is said to have been traded to a dealer in Tuscon, Arizona, before being purchased by the second owner in California where it was fitted with a fold-down rear bench seat. It was purchased in 2015 by the current owner from a four-decades owner in Lake Havasu, Arizona. Service over the past year consisted of overhauling the engine and transmission along with replacing the shifter assembly. This GT350 is now offered on dealer consignment with the original sales invoice, Shelby American literature, service records, vintage photographs, and a clean Arizona title in the name of the owner's LLC.
