New to Shelby Forum

Hello Guys,
I'm another of the new guys to the forum from Elmira, New York. I own a 1969 Shelby Gt-500 fastback with a factory 4-speed. I am the "original owner" , having purchased it from Reynolds Ford, in Syracuse, New York, June 24th, 1969. I have 57,000 plus original miles on the car. I drove the car daily until 1980, when I moved to California. The car has been garaged in New York for the past 27 years. It is a complete car and has never been wrecked or damaged. All factory original parts are on the car, including the original space saver spare, which has never been inflated. My dream is to pull it out of the garage and start putting it back into working condition beginning summer of '08.
