In my opinion, a convertible doesn't need a Shelby ducktail.

Side note: Did they make automatic HIPOs in '65?

I think it needs it more than any model. Well, 69' anyway.

LOL!

I KNEW I should've qualified that statement.

Just for the record: Yes Pak, your 69 needs a ducktail.

Personally I'm not a fan of body kits either, but the ducktail does make the coupe look

After seeing Codemans I even asked my dad if we could make our own out of fiberglass for my 66.

This whole kit does consern me though. I fear that 65 and 66 fastbacks will now be commisioned to become Eleanors. E2 :bang:

With all the 67-68 Shelby pieces tacked on and the silver paint they do look similar, besides the roofline and size.

Besides the 67-68 are not original eleanors anyway.

I thought the future of 65's and 66's were to all become 350SR's?

Blake: Thank you sir! :tex:
