    Greeting's Shelby enthuseist's from Tucson Arizona, B) I just found this site look's like it's going to be a great place to talk about one of my favorite sport's car's the Shelby mustang. If i understand correctly this site is owned by Carroll Shelby's grandson how cool is that ! A little about myself, I am 47 year's old, I retired when i was 40 sold a Structural Steel business that built high-rise buildings, baseball stadium's, Hospital's, ect. I have alway's loved classic car's ! In my collection now i have a 1967 435 hp 427ci corvette Known as the "Desert Rat", a 1969 RS-Z28 camaro, a 1969 RS-SS 396 L-34 camaro, 1970 Cuda 440, Four 2000 Dodge Viper's two of them have 0 mile's plastic still on the seat's, a 1968 Fastback Mustang 289ci four-speed still in it's original seafoam green paint, And my favorite a 1966 Shelby GT-350 mustang car # 488 with original paint and 35,000 original mile's recently purchased from the original owner Dave Hoverstock. As you can see i love car's.

    Snelly, Thank's you have a nice looking family, The shelby look's great also. Is the picture from New Zealand ? My wife and I have been talking about taking a trip there sometime next year. We are geting ready to head to Alaska this month. Your Shelby look's just like mine same color and it has the same wheels, they are alot of fun to drive. Mr. Car Nut
