1. Torq Thrust wheels where it should have the Kelsey Hayes steels or crager alloys

2. The sill stripe is incorrect on the front wing, there should be no block between the 350 and the wing back edge

3. No GT350 came with wing mounted Mustang badges

4. All 1965 GT350's were white

Now of course all of the above could have been changed to suit the tastes of the owner but in the current market, you have the rarest and most valuable GT350, would you fit the wrong wheels, the wrong decals, add badges it shouldnt have and paint it in a colour it would never have been.....unlikely unless you also planned to swap the original HiPo 289 for a diesel ......

Still a lovely car......am a bit partial to 65/66 fastbacks.....i have a black 65 with same wheels and badges but no sill stripe.....
Brilliant, thanks very much, here's another shot.

You should post a picture of yours.
Here is a photo of mine.... its a bit sad.....Classic Le Mans, 2018. Being deposited in Ashford Tesco car park at 11pm on the sunday night, having snapped a 1/2 shaft in France and limping 90 miles to Calais on 1 wheel drive courtesy of the LSD which was trashed in the process
