Help!!!! Quick!
 
Hey guys,

Im not sure where to post this questions specific, but i need some help. Searched the entire internet for the answer, but no luck!
Hope you can help :(

A rare option for the first Mustangs were 2 +2 Night Rally Kit, these kits were a Ford dealer option, and were negotiated from coast to coast.
Who produced this kit for Ford?

Shelby American?
Holman Moody?
Andy Hotton Enterprises?

Thanks guys!!

I started a thread a while back about this same option. I read about it in a Mustang magazine, although it was just a quick mention and started my search to try to locate one. I didn't find anyone that could help me let alone who even knew they existed. So, I fabricated my own using the picture in the Magazine. I found two other photo's of this Kit later on. One being used on a 1965 Shelby GT-350. I'll see if I can locate the photo.
They looked to me to be made of fiberglass because of the missing chrome ring for the parking light's. That's just a guess.
Hopefully someone has found out more information since my post. I'd like to find out more about them myself.

I believe the write up said the 2+2 Night Rally Kit was offered by Ford.

but who produced the kit for ford?

Sorry,I have no idea. I couldn't find any info on the Kit. All the write up said was that it was a rare 1965 only option from Ford and the Owner found it at a swap meet.

I wanted to buy that valence from Scott (for my '66 GT350) back in the early 70's - ended up getting an "R-Model" valence from Maier Racing. The '23 T-Bucket next to Scott's GT350 was my buddy Roger Hodyka's. The twin-Paxton blower setup he had on there went into his '66 Hertz car, and, eventually, under the hood of CSX2532.

Thank's for the Picture Jeff. It was one of the two picture's that I could find of that valance. Apparently they are as rare as Hen's teeth. It was a great help in fabricating mine.
