March ‘65 issue SCG pullout
« on: March 25, 2024, 04:06:36 PM »
Does anyone know anything about this pullout that’s in the March ‘65 issue of SCG?
Seems most of that issue are missing this.

I don't believe it ever was a "pull out" from the March 1965 issue.   My understanding is it was a factory showroom brochure written by Sports Car Graphic or also known as a "reprint".  A reprint of the article they ran for the magazine.   Actually both items in your photo are reprints or showroom brochures (see examples below).

In an old SAAC Shelby American issue there is discussion on how to tell a reproduction of the R-Model reprint brochure.  Someone reproduced it in the 80's.  Slightly different size and copy machine marks.  I will post the issue if I find it again.

Also I have this model kit from ‘68 and the cobra record (really who don’t have the record) but I’m looking for the extra piece that I have circled in red. Does anyone know about this piece that came in the model kit?
Thanks
