Description
The 906th GT350 built for the 1966 model year, this GT350 was shipped to Hayward Motors of Hayward, California, in February of 1966 prior to being purchased by Arthur Flores of Oakland in May of that same year.
Hayward Motors were prominent campaigners of GT350Rs, so it is of no surprise that Flores took the car to the track and started competing in SCCA events in California, racing the car from 1966 to 1975 at Riverside and Laguna Seca, amongst other circuits.
In 1979, Flores sold the GT350 to Ron Hunter of Denver, Colorado, keeping it in storage until it was purchased by Ted Lebsack, also of Denver, in 1983.
Lebsack had the GT350 restored with the intention of continuing its racing career, and fitted the car with a Super T-10 transmission, a full roll cage and fuel cell.
With him, the car ran at a variety of East Coast race tracks, including Road Atlanta, Palm Beach, Sebring and Watkins Glen.
In 1985 this GT350 was purchased by well-known collector James K.
