    Default Identifying an 84 GT350

    Hey folks, I'm looking at an 84 GT350 and I want to make sure the car is legit. Other than the red striping on white, is there any other tell tale items that can help me confirm the legitimacy of this car?

    Could still be a legit GT350. Maybe just had a wheel swap

    I vaguely recall seeing some with 14” aluminum wheels too, but that may be my imagination.

    TRX wheels were optional. They were NOT standard. The wheels in the above pictures were standard.

    Ya, those are the wheels the car has on it. I wouldn’t be surprised if the wheels were swapped but they match the size description on the door post sticker
