    Hello everyone,

    My name is Mark Loftus and I'm the youngest son of Jack Loftus; the largest Shelby dealer in the Midwest during the 1960's. I came across this forum as a result of a Google search on my father and noticed that there were many threads looking for info on him and the dealership. Please feel free to ask me any questions relative to him and the dealership -as long as they are not to personal- and I will do my best to get the answer for you. Please keep in mind that it has been about 40 years since most of those sales took place. By the way, Jack is alive and well and in great health/spirits and continues to work in the automotive industry til this day at the age of 81!!!

    Mark, thanks for posting and welcome.
    I spoke with your dad a few days ago, he has a great sense of humor.
    I have the first 65 GT350 that was sent to his dealership, SFM 5 017.

    I am sending a PM, if you would be so kind to take a look at it.

    Thanks.

    Mike
