==============================================


The Shelby Mustang offered by Hertz were Black with gold accents and a
few other colors. They were known as the 1966 Mustang GT 350-H Hertz
Rent a Racer that Hertz commissioned Carroll Shelby to build them 1000
of the 306 horse power Fastbacks to be rented out to average customers.
The 8 Rent a Racers that I have seen all had Automatic trans and all had
Ford Factory shifters in them.

The next Mustang deal done with Hertz, I think was in 1985 or so...
