February 1965.
Carroll Shelby was developing the first of the new Mustangs, the fastback GT-350.
His first prepared car was brought to the Green Valley Raceway near Dallas Texas.
Ken Miles was the driver that day of the car designated 5R002 # 98.
It was white with blue stripes and was the first ever "R" model Shelby Mustang.
Jerry Melton's photos captured that momentous day for the Shelby Mustang.
