[QUOTE="Robert M, post: 15329842, member: 9628"] ^^^^I have seen many 1965/66 GT350's, original's, clones, Hertz cars (1966) and a couple of R-Models and none of them that I have seen in over 40 years of car interests have had an extra tail light segment added to the tail light assembly. The first picture below is from the original 1965 Road & Track road test of a Shelby GT350. Three tail light bars as has been the tradition since the original Mustang prototype was unveiled in 1962.......... [ATTACH=full]687448[/ATTACH] Here is one of the three original 1965 GT350 examples from the Carroll Shelby Driving School......... [ATTACH=full]687449[/ATTACH] If you have original pictures "from the day" with a four segment tail light assy. on each side of a 1965/66 GT350, please add them, I am not familiar with it. In 1967 Shelby added tail light bars, and they were very similar to what the 1965 Thunderbird had installed from the factory. <<<That original 1967-1970 Shelby GT350 and 500 look is what the Cervini's tail lights resemble. Then again, 1967-70 GT350 and 500 Shelby's had upper and lower side scoops on them back in the day also, I don't see that on the 2007-up except on the Shelby built Super Snakes. Compare these original 1967/68 Shelby GT350/500 tail lights to the Cervini's, and even the Cervini's rear deck lid spoiler design, they look somewhat similar, bringing the older/original look to the newer body style........... [ATTACH=full]687450[/ATTACH] A side view of the rear spoiler.......Very similar look to Cervini's......... [ATTACH=full]687451[/ATTACH] R [/QUOTE]
