For what it's worth, my 427 (really a 428) CSX 3288 has amber turn signals, round taillights, per Bob's comments.
However, a quick search through my many Cobra books, pictures of original one owner unrestored 427 S/C's (two) and looking closely at the photos taken of the S/C's on theproduction line and at the Shelby facility in California, as well as all the Shelby advertising I have on the 427's, whether rectangular or round taillights, have amber lenses.
In Dave Friedman's book "Shelby Cobra original archives" there are pictures of 289 slab sides that appear to have been taken the same day, same spot, with the white car having amber lenses and the others having white lenses!!! (Perhaps a fashion designer was hired by Shelby to pick the lense color that was complementary to the body color. Uh, then again, no!)Most of the 289's I've seen have white lenses, including three one owner cars, the owners of which insist they haven't changed them.
So that really clears it up, doesn't it? I'm confused now!
