I just happened to see this quote while looking at this particular thread regarding side pipe colors. In the interest of stopping misinformation, the street cars had as options side pipes, oil coolers, roll bars, hood scoops, flared rear fenders and 9.5" rear wheels. How do I know, because they were all offered to me as options on my car and they were not "dealer Installed" but were installed by Shelby American at their LAX facility. PS I have a copy of the original invoice showing these as Shelby American installed options.
While I am at it, the cars were referred to as AC Cobras not Shelby Cobras by all the owners at the time that I knew, because none of us wanted anybody to think we had Shelby Mustangs.
