Question 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!!

2+2 Night Rally Kit

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.

Marty.

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



The "good ole days...." sometimes, I really miss 'em.

Jeff

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.
