My career as a full time freelance auto journalist for car magazines (6,000 plus magazine articles and 20 books) centers around my three columns, called "Rare Finds," (barn finds) that I began writing monthly since 1991 in 5 different magazines (Hot Rod Mustang, followed by Mustang Monthly), Vette, Muscle Car Review, Mopar Muscle, and most recently Hot Rod Magazine.. I've written over 800 barn find stories, and now dozens on UA-cam. I encourage viewers to email or call me with leads on car discoveries. I travel in the United States and internationally. If a person owns a barn find, I can help them find a buyer and get their car appraised at its true value for a sale. See how I do this in my latest videos, such as the 1967 Shelby GT-400 barn find in Iowa. My email is jerryheasley@gmail.com and number is 806-236-3681.

Wow Jerry, I missed this one somehow. Another amazing story, thankful that Rosemary shared it with you and that Dr. Shane was part of the rescue for this amazing '67 Shelby. Shane is a good man, he has been very good to me, always ready to share his knowledge and his expertise in the Shelby world. I almost purchased his 1971 Royal Maroon Mustang convertible that you can see inside his garage/shop early in this video, it was a Katrina rescue. I'm still kicking myself for not closing that deal.... Kudos to you, Rosemary, her husband & Shane for giving us this little slice of video GOLD... it's so good!
Much respect for their work.
Extremely uninspiring
I was born in 1955, that is a beautiful car😮
What a score
Nicely don't. When you had the Engine built Jerry did you get it on the dyno? Can you share power numbers.
Nothing is rare they made many many mustangs these are trash
What a collector look how he treated these cars now all shit piles 1:17 of junk a full moron all garbage
So stupid why the whole car is in pieces laying around.
Good for you. Enjoy your baby. You’ve earned it!!!!!
But you could buy an Eleanor for twice as much....
PRAYING FROM THE ORLANDO FLORIDA AREA STAY STRONG MY BROTHER
Awesome stuff. Gotta start somewhere. I did a ground up restore on a 1944 Willys MB with minimal prior experience. Learned a lot and made mistakes. Would not change a thing.
It is a gt350, not a mustang, not a ford, shelby didn't sell off to ford until 68...
Yeah, so always hate when somebody uses sealer.They're in too much of a damn hurry,, Epoxy, mix it, let it dry for days, Then go for your block sanding before paint,, Just like the guys at Graveyard Cars....
In agreement,, Only did the side stripes on mine and not the top stripes
My sixty seven fastback black headliner, never failed there was never a wrinkle,, Had The original factory installed headliner.Since the car was new...
Love his enthusiasm and that he’s so excited at getting his dream car. Seems like a good guy.
I would like to know that acid formula.
BRO!! MY DREAM CAR!
“I’m going to mask off the roof to protect it from the overspray of the glue because this glue will actually eat into the paint”. Literally the next scene: “What’s the purpose of masking this off?” “To protect the paint from overspray of the glue because it will eat into the paint”. 😂😂😂 Anyway, beautiful car. It’s been a great series of videos thus far.
I'm not a GM guy at all. But, I can certainly appreciate the woman's sacrifice. She is giving a loved family member new life. To give a new family new members. I hope that my kids feel this love after I'm gone. If they don't. I hope they find someone who'll love them as much as I did.
I knew this was going to be a GREAT! video when he tried to put that jaw puller on the steering wheel. I ran and grabbed a beer in anticipation of him trying to start the car without rotating the cylinders with a breaker bar. ..... very disappointed. Clearly a Jaw puller is a tool for the dentists office and in all fairness the package should say "steering" wheel puller in bold. Otherwise somebody might have tried to use it on that flat tire.
Good job. He has a nice car to start and can turn it into whatever he wants and also gets to learn along the way. And also it’s another classic that is saved from setting and going down hill with time
That shop is in kingville wow I wonder where the car was in what city cause Corpus Christi is where I live.
It was in Kingsville.
WHAT A GREAT CAR,,, WE WANT TO SEE PART 2 .. THOSE KEYS HAVE TO BE SOME WHERE OWELL.. THX.
Good for this guy! Wrench away! “Show quality” is a matter of perspective. The car is not some rare optioned 1 of 1 original one owner low mileage unicorn. It’s the perfect car for someone to start with. It’s scratched, dented, painted the wrong color and has the wrong interior in it, yet it is not some pos that will leave a guy defeated two months later.
This guy is good. He knows his stuff!
Glad to see this guy buy it before Dennis Collins. Dennis would just flip it.
GO back and look at episode 1.... 41:33 .....then look at 42:02 on this episode about concourse details of the GT 500 placement. Why does the original decal have the stripe to the left of the 500?
Good observation, but we don't know if that decal is original.
I believe it's mostly jealousy when people are negatively commenting. They wish they had this car to get going in nearly already show condition. True gem. Usually people work there way up to get to this point with a classic car going through quite a bit to get there. Thats where the jealousy comes in. Good find and good luck.
DO NOT use glass fuel filters! They are dangerous and leak and will cause a fire. My 1st Camaro was a 1968 Z/28 that I purchased in 1974 for $3,000. A friend of mine owns it today. From there the next ones were 1971, new 1977, new 1978, new 1980. All 4 speeds. Current one I bought in ‘81 from the original owner is a 1970 Z/28 4 spd.
Jason is the master. No doubt one of the best , and most skilled auto guys out there. Works clean, and makes no excuses. Awesome.
I would replace carb with holley and call a dentless repair guy and a good one can get most of those dents out.
Your Shelby is looking fantastic! You have the right man doing the restoration. When you received the car you had original glass. Was that the same glass that was installed?
Tip for Jason. Use paper binder clips instead of windlace to hold the headliner in place while gluing an fitting.
It’s a nice car, congrats. You should get Jerry’s mate to fix it up for you.
I love seeing how happy she was when she got to ride in it 😊 that has to make it all worth it
Gotta hook up the electric choke... I hope when you put the plug wires in you figured out which one was actually #1. Top dead center
Oh ffs just wash the damn thing 🙄
What a shame.
If your an Aussie watching this restoration give me an oi..
Can't wait to get to work and have a guy film me and talk non stop while I'm working said no human ever... And yet it's happening b4 our eyes... Wheel housing or wheel cowling?? At one time Jason said a wheel howling... Nice
Nice guy. He's got a great project car. Congratulations!
Incredible knowledge and skill... Glad I hot to watch this whole series.
It's prefect❤ those little imperfections make it yours nothing wrong with character❤❤❤
Do 67/68 Shelby's not have the line in the middle of the rear window like a normal fastback does? I didn't see one in this car. Both my 67 and 68 fastbacks have the line in the back window.
The original rear window shattered in the trailer on the way to the shop. I believe we're going to etch a line in the window.
Can you imagine a guy in a factory installing headliners on a daily basis for years!
I can't. Maybe they trade jobs off and on in the assembly plant?
To the man with his dream car the older engines use Lucas oil stabilizer to coat the system for cold start up just from experience 41 year mechanic here
Thanks for sharing!
