Lowell's Car?  It looks to be from that famous shoot of V-738-2.

Yes, that's certainly Lowell's car from the Sid Avery photo shoot in late September 1966.

In reply #3, we re-established both #00176 and V-738-2 (completed for marketing purposes for both '67 models) received the non production upper scoop lights. I also agree those light assemblies were likely from a Daytona Coupe.

My hope is to draw out owners of production units, as we continue to search for early '67's that might have had the upper scoop lights, not on our established list.

We're still looking for any cars with Upper Scoop Lights.

No cars after Shelby VIN #00158 have been confirmed as having them..

A Confidential internal SAI letter notes the cut off from SHELBY AMERICAN was 12/2/1966.
Only cars already started at that point would be finished with them.

There were also several cars completed before #00158 that did not get them
(certainly not #00131 the hardtop or #00139 the convertible)
The total number of USL's is very close to around 150 cars.

Thanks man. I didn’t get to read the comment on my For Sale post. I thought you had told me it was somewhere around 150, so when the other gentleman wrote about there being 170 something I knew we had a discrepancy.

#2928 has upper scoop marker lights. They were in place when I adopted the car from my boss in '81.
When I did a restore/repaint years ago I was told by people here that know, that the lights were installed
the same way they were installed on the early cars and help me get the correct lenses.
No documentation on who or when they were installed.
