1966 saw further refinement of the Mustang.
The gauge cluster was redone to seperate the Mustang
from its Falcon roots while the 260 cid V8 was replaced
with 2 and 4 barrel versions of the 289 cid V8.
The Shelby
GT-350 was still available, though its race image was
being dilluted by the addition of an automatic transmission,
a choice of four colors, and special examples that were
prepared for Hertz-Rent-A-Car (known as Shelby GT-350H)
for rental to weekend drag racers.
Available on the GT-350
through 1968 was a Paxton supercharger which would boost
horsepower by as much as 40%.
