    Man that was an awesome find . Everyone watching here needs to have a moment of silence for the sad story that has to be attached to this.Ive been fortunate enough to be present for unearthing a couple of hoard finds like this over the years and it just makes you think about the day someone will be going through your own.

      A 65 350 just sold for north of $1.3M not long ago.

    But my neighbor/teacher later in high school had a burgundy red 66 fastback gt with the rally lights in the grill and white Mustang stripe along the bottom
    He had added the air scoops from a Shelby to the car. It was a badass Mustang

    TK2..... based on those rare factory parts .... I think I know someone that was associated with Ford during that era . Is that property near the Alabama/ Georgia line ? Whoever commented about us old guys getting our shit together is right . Us old guys need to move our collections on while we can still at least supervise the liquidation. We should not leave this to our family to do !!!!! I am guilty just not to this degree !!!
    Sincerely TK2

    Unreal. A 65 Shelby, 65 K code GT, that looks in amazing shape. And was that a freakin' Grand National out front as well?! Holy.... I'm always perplexed by these abandoned houses too. The mess that's in them. In this case someone thought, " I know. I'm gonna put these cylinder heads, intake manifolds and valve covers upstairs, along with some wheels, an old fan and my book collection on the floor. I think I'll lean my guitar up against the wall in the same area too. Why not?" So very weird. Besides all that, that looks like it was one cool, architectural house at one point in a very nice neighborhood.

      Thanks. Yeah Shelby registry knew the car still existed but it wasn’t on the radar. I’ll post a video of the car now. Freshened drivetrain, brakes, suspension etc but didn’t touch the paint. Interior is all original and cleaned up nice. Not planning to restore at the moment. The plan is to let the car tell its story for a little while. Thanks

To me this seems like maybe the lake house was the guy's place to do car stuff. Like maybe the place he hauled all his swap meet goodies back to although I am imagining that the fox body was probably for the Mrs, and was that his and hers Harleys on the side of the GT350?

    You officially save them from the house caving in on them, or worse a fire! I could use a set of those Hipo heads if you want to spread that love around. Between me an my brother we have one un restored engine less 67 GT500, two 65 Fastbacks, one is real K code, it's been missing the original date correct engine since the day my brother bought it, but there's a 70 Boss motor in that little K car, his is Poppy Red 65 K code unrestored patina hot rod complete with minor rust, mine is Honey Gold 2+2 with a bunch of OEM Ford goodies, and a proper paint job. Score of the year, if not the decade for Ford fans right here.....
