    I just registered. While I do not own a Shelby, I just purchased an original 1971 Grande 429 RamAir in beautiful condition. I have not picked her up yet. I have to wait till the weather allows - I hate winter even more now!

    I am Co-Chair for No Borders Mustang InterNationals. We will be hosting the first MCA National Show outside U.S. on August 1-3, 2008 at the Ford of Canada HQ in Oakville, Ontario.

    Hopefully we will see some of you out for that Show. For pre-registration information see www.ghma.on.ca (a little plug for our Show.)

    Welcome.

    You may want to post that info in the events sub-forum to keep it relevant.
    Good luck with the show.

    Wow! That is one rare car! Only 15 4 speed coupes and 38 automatics coupes! That is not even discounting non-Grande's. Do you have any pictures to post?:thumbup:

    She is an Automatic car. The Marti Report shows 1 of 23 RamAir/C6.

    No pictures yet but this is a picture taken by the previous owner

    The 38 automatic coupes is straight from Kevin Marti's book "Mustang... by the Numbers". The one of 23 might be Grande coupes? Any way that is a nice and very rare car.:thumbup:

    She was written up in Mustang Monthly in December 1992.

    The Marti Report 1 of 23 is referring to Grandes.

    She is a nice looking car in great condition, but the 429 takes it to a whole different level.
