Shelby-badged Serial Numbers-Prewar

-
Recently, two almost identical Shelby bikes showed up with original parts on them. Red number is not in above list yet. @mac9lxx and @Just Jeff bikes. They were only 21 numbers off! This would suggest the last two or three numbers in the series could be the actual number of that specifically equipped example. But for the same year clearly. Any thoughts on the two last numbers and what they could represent?

And lastly, this wonderful example was also recently posted by new member @Bobrowe that looks original with the serial number ending in 001. Could this be a first example?

I recently bought this Eagle badged bike off of eBay, I believe the bike is a 36 because of the frame style and the Morrow hub is dated F3(3rd quarter of 36) the number on the frame is N383476, I would appreciate any information y’all might know about this bike from the numbers. Thanks

Thanks for posting your cool early Shelby, I will add it to the list. Looks like a few original parts on it. You could maybe start a new thread on this 35/6 bike and find out more.
