.....HERTZ FACTS....ON THE GT350H.............
In September of 1965 Shelby American General Manager Peyton Cramer struck a deal with Hertz to offer the 1966 GT350H Mustang as a rental car. The program was a clever one for Ford and Shelby as it worked to promote the Shelby Mustang to potential buyers. As Ford put it, the idea was to put a high-performance, special-edition, Shelby Mustang fastback in the hands of racing enthusiast / rental customers. That's right, if you were a Hertz Sports Car Club member back in 1966 (25 years of age), you could drive off the rental car lot in a performance 306 hp Mustang fastback. Total cost: $17 a day and 17 cents a mile. Not a bad deal by todays standards, or back then.

As you can imagine, this venture was popular among the racing enthusiast crowd. In fact, its been reported that some renters actually took their rental cars to the track where they would remove the engine and put it in their personal race car. At the end of the race they would drop the Cobra engine back into the rental car and return it to Hertz. The idea was to avoid damaging the rental car body, while boosting the performance of their personal ride... WOW....
