This 1969 Hertz Shelby once belonged to Alice Cooper.

Jason, the only GT350S? In Boulder there is a Shelby American museum where I have seen a GT350S or they called it a GT350SC, but it was all origional and had a Paxton on it... it was red so I know it wasn't the one you have in that picture. It was a '66, I believe.. unless they made any SCs in '67... I'm trying to remember the back end, but I was so impressed with the Paxton from back in the day that I don't remember all the details.

That green one pictured above was the only G.T. 350S ever produced. There were other supercharged Shelbys, but none called G.T. 350S.

m'kuy... so the other Shelbys with super chargers on them, were they ever marked GT-350SC? I know for sure that it was marked as supercharged on the rocker panels. So, I guess if no others were marked as stink, then the dude lied to me, or customized that part.

I believe the green '66 was the only one with an 'S' in the rocker stripe. It was a test unit that made it out to the public. I have an old issue of Mustang and Fords that had the car painted wimbledon white with the blue lemans stripes. It also had enlarged rear-wheel openings.

I don't think there were any Shelby's that had 'SC' in the rocker stripe.

Steve, you're right about that - a few were returned with plain-jane 289's under the hood. Holes drilled in the floorpans for bolt-in roll bars, etc.

No wonder Hertz said "enough!" after one year.
hmmm thats pretty shady. but funny too

The guys over at Oak-land lincoln in Oakville where I bought my GT are building one of their stock black GT's into a HERTZ lookalike. So far the stripes are on, with the rest of the gear being fabricated Looks sweet! I'll post pics tonight.
I was at this dealer last week, and saw this car, and it really does look nice. They've been using it as a demonstrator, so it hasn't really been for sale. I understand they have another GT in, and now this black and gold one is available. It really does look classic!
