Having studied that Hertz Corporation had once produced their particular autos and painted them in Black with Gold and Brass trim, in promptly 1966 Shelby American General Manager Peyton Cramer suggested to Hertz a Black-and-Gold Shelby for its Sports Car Club rental system named the GT350H, and euphorically strolled afar with a request for 1,000 autos. This 1966 Shelby GT350H is serial number 810 of the sum processing run of 999.
Initially sent to J.D. Ball Ford, Inc. in Miami, Florida, it is recorded in the Shelby Registry as having been conveyed to Hertz in Miami with chromed Magnum 500 wheels, brake supporter and radio. After its aid at Hertz it was sold to a Pennsylvania purchaser and later won First Place Popular Vote at SAAC 5 in Dearborn, MI.
Instantly indicating 87,507 miles, it puts forth in brilliant condition today and is comprehensively valid down to such parts as the restrictive Hertz Sports Car Club fixate tops on the Magnum wheels and the cautioning sticker beneath the radio cautioning drivers that “Heavier than standard brake force may be needed.” obviously, as a GT350H this is a standout amongst the most pleasing of all Shelby machines.
