I’m Jon and Kirk’s sister and I’m very excited to see this car come back to life!

I have no idea why this story would come to my page, being a women who isn’t in to cars, although my husband is an auto painter, neither of us care for it as a hobby. That was so much fun to watch, the history and knowledge of it all. The man who assessed it really knows his stuff! The men who sold it were so nice and I wish you all the luck with your dream car! I hope I get to see it when it’s all done! I do appreciate a great paint job along with all the other work !

A ghost car coming back to life is awesome. learned alot watching ,,me fav car , being a disabled vet and having to raise my daughter by myself after her mom was Killed by 4 teens , so its been a dream car for me ,,, thx for sharing.

Nebraska!! I was recently handed down a 68 mustang that was won on a $1 raffle in 1968. These videos fuel my desire to get it restored. It's gotten me into classic cars more than I could have imagined. Nice barn find!

That's alright man. That's alright. Congratulations on your dream purchase. Please keep us in the loop on how it's progressing! I, for one, would love a whole new series of videos documenting the restoration. Congrats again, and big thanks to all your buddies for helping it all fall in place. 👍

Congratulations! What a find. My son is struggling to finish restoring a1969 GT 500 Shelby that his dad bought and had the car torn down to frame. He got sick with a rare cancer from Agent Orange and died in 2016. My son has been working on it ever since .

"no wind, no draft, i still don't know what made that door slam" 😂🤣😆😂🤣😆

My dad bought '67 GT350 Fastback, with the 390- 4 on the floor, brand new back in '67. He said it was really too much car for the road back then. He said Alabama State Troopers wouldn't even try. I have ONE PHOTO of that car.

I was all of 16 years old in 1982 when I saw a Shelby Cobra sitting in a barn in Indiana. We were painting the barn and saw something covered with some blankets to protect it from the pigeon shit. As a curious kid, I went in and pulled back the cover......and I fell in love. The owners had parked a disk, plow and planter around it to keep it there. Always wonder what became of it.

It's really heartwarming when something goes to a person that really deserves it and would really treasure it.

I remember lusting after these cars a a youngster. They are so ultra cool and beautiful, especially the red ones. I can't wait to see it when you have finished the restoration. I am happy you found the car you have always wanted.

Noticing that the Fenders were replaced without obvious damage mean that the famous Midwest road salt must have been at work. Good luck with the restoration. Keep a video journal of the restoration such as Jo Daddy's Garage does with his restorations. It would be a blast to see this project come together.

Every time I drive past a barn I wonder, "Hmmm, what's in there?" So cool!

Jerry-good to see another Shelby Mustang saved from just sitting in a barn. I know it will take awhile to "do it right", but please keep us posted on your progress on bringing this old girl back to life!

I feel really lucky to have grown up with a favorite uncle who had a 68 gt350 from the time i was born. Not too many people ever even get to ride in a Shelby and i cruised around in one every summer until about 1997. He finally sold his mint candy red 68 Shelby and at the time $35k was a lot, but Gone in 60 seconds come out not long after and the prices of them went thru the roof because of Eleanor. Plus it was originally a 1 of 6 Raven black w/ black luxury seats car, so it would be so valuable today, it always drove perfectly.

This was a nice watch.. all genuine people. Not a couple a vultures trying to make a buck off someone else.. all folks were very genuine .wish I had friends like this. Thank you for sharing

You never know what your going to find in old barn ❤

Out in the middle of nowhere is where the barns are located! That's why you end up in the back of beyond to get the barn finds! Yay! Thank you for the story I love it!

Bits of the car everywhere, is there anyone out there capable of keeping a car in one piece with these barn finds...

CONGRATULATIONS Jerry! Looking forward to any and all updates….great opportunity to document a full restoration from start to finish. Again, congrats on the find of a lifetime👍

Jerry, please have more on your new car. Love to see the journey from here and all theway to giving those sons a turn at the wheel of this car.

You tell good car stories. You are own your way to becoming a legend. Your stories has a john boy Walton vibe

As a kid I had dozens of models of specifically this car. I can't wait to see your restoration on it. Congrats on your purchase!

Congrats Jerry! Keep up the great work sharing amazing barn finds! You are a legend!

Jeff is a walking encyclopedia of Shelby's! After all these years, people are still finding these hidden jewels! Back in the early 70's, there was a '65 or '66 Shelby sitting in a backyard in Seymour, IN. I don't know whatever happened to it.

At 70 years old, these videos and I mean all of Jerry's videos, always brightens my day.. First car I bought and paid for was a 69 Camaro SS.. I'd sell my soul to the Devil to have that car back.. Thank you

Two custom guys who still revere and respected their roots and aren't bent on chop slam shave jacking everything they can get their hands on.... ...uncommon indeed. Respect commands respect

Congrats on the Shelby find Jerry.

Man I'm so happy for you I'm glad you found you 1

I'm not into Mustangs, but watch for the stories. I'm a truck guy though and that GMC cabover is sweet!

So damned happy for you Jerry. This was meant to be for you. I'm so very proud of the men that took the time to help you with the ordeal of figuring it all out. That's what it's all about, genuine friends helping genuine friends. I can hardly wait to see it all done and the little bro getting to finally drive it!! Ha!! Great content as always Jerry. Keep em coming!!

Jerry, you deserve this . For showing all these videos of "barn finds" I'm very happy for you. Thanks for the videos!!.

Man! This is a deep, forensic project. It's a real time, full size Revell model kit. Have fun.

I live in globe Az and I remember for years seeing a GT 500, Green, on the reservation I would pass when I went fishing at Takalai lake

Congratulations Jerry! I can feel your excitement. Keep us posted on the progress!

Congratulations on the find. Hope we can see some videos on the restoration! Thanks for sharing!

So cool. I’m glad to see this car go to someone who really wanted it. I hope it comes back and is loved and enjoyed.

Thank you for providing this video. It's very entertaining but it also inspires a younger and newer generation of Americans to be passionate about classic cars.

I'm so happy for you, all these years documenting other peoples dreams coming true and it's finally your turn. I also agree with the other commenters who want to see a series following the restoration of your dream car.

This was worth the wait. Enjoyed every second. Thank you Jerry for sharing!

I had a 64&1/2 - 65 289 with 2 4 barrels & 4 speed FastBack (Black/White interior) with the round Enameled Cobra Snake in each Front Fender. I owned it From Sept '68 to 1978-9. Sold it to a 15 year old boy who wanted to restore it, For $100. 2 years ago I stopped where I had Delivered the Mustang, but the People didn't live there anymore. The gentleman that now owned the house in Sussex WI. mentioned he had Bought it 7 years ago and when he first looked at the house he remembered seeing an Old Black Mustang in a Lean To next to the Garage. Didn't pay any attention if it was restored or not.

Men doing what they love. We should all be so lucky!

Congratulations Jerry on the new to you wheels. I know you know of Dennis Collins & he has many parts for all kinds of Shelbys that he might just help you with. Doesn't hurt to ask, and he would probably be willing to help you save another Mustang cause that is what he does on a regular basis. Same day you posted your video Dennis posted a 69 Shelby save. Look him up for hard to find Shelby parts. Good Luck !!

Such an incredible video. Congratulations Jerry! You deserved this after so many years of hard work! We're all so happy and proud of you!

Congratulations Jerry! Enjoy the build!

"That's what we do, and we're good at it" Love it

Congrats Jerry! I think that Shelby has been waiting 41 years for you to come get it! That will be one sharp car back in stock colors! I enjoyed the video Buddy👍

Congrats, Jerry. I absolutely love watching your videos. A project car series would be something I would definitely watch!

The amount of knowledge this man has on this car is so incredible. Talk about someone who's devoted to such a beautiful creation.

you weren't kidding! this is amazing, thanks Jerry!

I'm always amazed at the knowledge Jeff has about every detail of literally every single part on these cars. Congrats on the barn find!

We need to see a series of videos as the restoration progresses. Happy for you Jerry.

The amount of knowledge he has is absolutely incredible! I’m lucky enough to remember where all the parts go to my car. Lol

I love these kinds of restoration videos, since I have owned many of the 60's classic cars when they were brand new with that new car smell. Unlike today, back then they were all very affordable when brand new.

Amazing, I love Ratt‼️

Congrats Jerry. I REALLY enjoyed watching the parts being uncovered. I feel that since it's not numbers matching, it can be driven a lot more and enjoyed. Jim Wix probably has the original engine. Lol

Cobra love at its finest Jerry word of advice has long as you are working on the car try to do whatever one thing every 3 or 4 days so the build won't get stalled out one friend of mine is almost done with the Camaro and I sold another friend to Trans Am about 5 years ago and he hasn't done anything with it it's sitting outside in his yard right now stalled out I told my buddy with the Camaro just every few days to one thing and you could sleep good at night great story I have a 93 Cobra I bought brand new with 93 36,000 MI

Jerry, Congrats on your "New" Shelby! 👍 Another Shelby barn find owner too that found his '66 Paxton Hertz car in '76! When completed, "drive it like you stole it"!😀

Very cool! Love your channel since the stories and the cars are so cool. I grew up in the muscle era and my dad was a salesman at a Buick dealer so I got to see as a kid a Stage 1 GSX, a 70 Superbird and a 62 Skylark. So cheers and keep the stories coming!

Congratulations on getting the Unicorn!!! Looking forward to following along the journey of getting it back on the streets! Very cool stuff Jerry. It's great to have friends that share an incredible passion for these cars - and even better when they help do things like this!

The way I see it the 1967 Shelby GT-500 when they were new or fully restored may be the most perfect vehicle ever created.

Wanna see her when she's finished!!!!!! Congrats on getting that awesome dream car!

Wonderful

Save the classics!!

You Guys are Amazing ~!!! Thank you for the education and trip down memory lane~!!!

Ratt, out of the cellar Is a great album, fits the car like a glove

who knew how special these old pony cars would be 50 plus years later, just love this stuff, shelbys just are so cool,

Congrats Jerry! I realize it will likely be a long drawn out process to find all the parts, and build her to spec, but please document the build for us devoted fans. On second thought, you're well know in the circle so have a lot of connections, and this build may not take as long as it otherwise would, lets hope that's the case for you Jerry! 😁😎🎄🎅👍✌

That single wheel peel was not impressive

I want one before I die. When I was in second grade my sister had a boyfriend had a 67 I can still hear and feel the rumble of that beautiful beast omg

GREAT SHOW N PRODUCTION AND VERY INFORMATIVE... WELL DONE TO EVERYONE INVOLVED... CHEERS... GOD BLESS YOU ALL...

This was the one my dad was going to buy but it was gone before we got there. Nice to see it will finally be restored.

Congratulations Jerry!

Couldn't have happened for a more deserving guy, congrats!

Congrats Jerry well worth the wait...

Congratulations Jerry! I love watching your stories. So glad you found and purchased your dream car.

06:41 the middle of nowhere is where those gems are found these days there’s much Ford Motor Co Mustang Shelby GT knowledge up in that loft & the lady that keeps all these boys in-line & well-fed

I love watching Jeff in action! Congratulations! Looks like a fun project. It will be an awesome day when the brothers can experience driving this Shelby!

10, years , who does not want a shelby mustang?❤😂

This was fun to watch! I love to watch important cars get authenticated or debunked.

love the car talk, story but the best part is the wife telling the guys their business. standard procedure, lol

I am from Nebraska and when I was young there were barn finds all across the state and the 60's muscle cars were ticket some had been wrecked, some had been put in storage from family members and some were it was my son's car he was killed in Vietnam and so on but once the the old became collectibles and drove the price up people flocked to Nebraska to scoop up the treasures. Not many left there anymore.

As a young man, I owned a 1976 Chevrolet NOVA SS with a small block 400... It was white with red racing stripes and red interior... I miss that car and I regret selling it... I had 3 jobs to buy it and rebuild the engine, transmission and rear end... Lost a couple of girlfriends because I spent more time and money on the car rather than on the ladies...!!!! I love these old cars... My dad bought a Ford Fairlane for $400 in the late 70's , wrecked it and sold it for $400.. that Ford Fairlane was supposed to be my car when I got my driver's license... Unfortunately I never got it... I remember it looked similar to a Mach 1 and that's why I loved that Ford Fairlane...

Looking forward seeing how your dream project progresses. This Shelby going to a good home.

Very nice find, Congrats Jerry!!

Congratulations! What an awesome find. I hope you’ll be sharing the restoration process. Looking forward to following its progress.

Wow this guy knows everything

Great to see another one saved! Congrats on the car Jerry! Please keep us updated on the restoration progress.

Happy for you,Jerry! Enjoy the hell out of this Shelby!

Great barn find here!

Really cool to see a guy who is so well versed on something like this. Dude really knows his stuff.

Ya guys are so fortunate to restore them

Congratulations Jerry! Keep us updated

I know where there’s a “69 Boss 429 #’s matching in maroon! Guys like 88 years old… Car is all together and complete! Covered in piles of blankets and boxes

Congrats on your find! Perfect starting point to build the car the way you want and have something you can get out and drive and not have to worry about everything being factory correct, numbers matching, low mileage, etc.

Congrats Jerry! I hope we get to follow the process of its restoration. One day I hope to be in your shoes and purchase my own Shelby (Mustang)!

Congrats Mr. Heasley! Welcome to the Shelby Mustang club! Cannot wait to see the final results.

Incredible find with incredible people. Please keep us updated on the restoration!

Awesome man, congrats! Be sure to post updates about it's restoration. We would love to watch it come back together.

I find videos like this to be incredibly fascinating. Thanks for sharing.
