    Vehicle Description

    NOTICE TO EBAY: This vehicle is being offered as a used Ford Mustang
    Convertible, with no Shelby badging, apparent or implied. As such, Carroll
    Shelby Licensing has no right to interfere with this auction.

    You are bidding on a 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible Restomod, built by
    Wilhelm Motor Works (WMW). WMW makes no claims that this car is a Shelby, as
    Carroll Shelby Licensing has pulled it off eBay twice before. There are no
    Shelby emblems or trademarked products currently being sold with this vehicle
    (hence the "Censored" stars in the photographs), though it will become the
    subject of a hearing on January 23rd to determine whether or not emblems may
    be added. Wilhelm Motor Works has a license in hand to build an unlimited
    quantity of G.T.350C (Convertible) vehicles, and this car was started under
    that contract. WMW claims it still has a valid license; Shelby claims WMW
    does not. This particular vehicle has caused Shelby to file a lawsuit against
    Wilhelm, specifically naming this car. Shelby is spending a fortune to say
    that this car is not an authentic Shelby, and a press release has been
    issued (go to: _http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/051221/law089.html_
    (http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/051221/law089.html) ). Obviously, Wilhelm denies any wrongdoings.
    Wilhelm has already spent a fortune to secure a license and deal with
    legal aspects to prove this car is authentic. Whether it is or isn't, no car
    has ever caused so much controversy in Shelby history. You can now buy a part
    of history! We have nicknamed this car Legal Trouble. WMW makes no
    guarantees as to whether or not this car will appear in the Shelby American World
    Registry. WMW will attempt to pay a royalty for this car, which if
    accepted, will oblige Shelby to put it in the Registry, per our license agreement.

    Legal Trouble is the sister car to the vehicle depicted in the current,
    January 2006, issue of Mustang Monthly (please see the insert calendar, April
    photo), which is the Prototype 1966 G.T.350C, produced by WMW.

    Legal Trouble is the 4th car off the WMW assembly line (#0004) and is the
    first to be auctioned on eBay by WMW, though Carroll Shelby Licensing has
    yanked it twice. This vehicle is built to resemble one of the most popular
    customizing options for 1966 Mustang convertibles. It is rebuilt, has new
    paint, and many of the parts are new. It has a 302 V8 with plenty of
    horsepower. The interior is a custom two-toned interior. This convertible is being
    sold without all of the modern features, making it a very period-accurate
    driving vehicle. We have some of the finest craftsmen in the world, and our
    quality is impeccable! The completion date of Legal Trouble is on or
    before February 15, 2006. As such, different options could be ordered and applied
    to the vehicle after this auction (such as engine size, transmission,
    brakes, etc).

    Legal Trouble will come with a certificate of authenticity from WMW, and
    we will include a copy of the lawsuit. All photos of this vehicle are an
    artist's concept of what the car will look like, based upon other vehicles we
    have made. The price of this car is F.O.B. Stockton, CA. We will be happy
    to assist the winning bidder in obtaining transportation to any destination,
    at bidder's expense. Thank you for your interest.


    About Wilhelm Motor Works
    Wilhelm Motor Works was founded to restore and build premium classic cars,
    including the Continuation Shelby Mustangs, for an exclusive clientele.
    Expert in all aspects of fabrication, restoration, design and development, the
    Company’s team was pleased to be part of the Shelby Program that has
    captured worldwide attention and awards at prestigious auto shows and races. The
    Wilhelm Motor Works team of craftspeople fulfills the dreams of discerning
    collectors and enthusiasts at two Californian facilities. Jon Wilhelm
    founded the current Continuation Shelby Mustangs program over three years ago and
    won a contract to build vehicles as a settlement to a substantial lawsuit
    against Shelby. Additional information about Wilhelm Motor Works, products,
    services, and memorabilia is available at _www.WilhelmMotorWorks.com_
    (http://www.wilhelmmotorworks.com/) .
    WARRANTY -- This vehicle is 40 years old, and the manufacturer's warranty
    from Ford has long since expired. WMW is the restorer/modifier, not the
    manufacturer. Many of the components, however, which are new, have a warranty
    that will be passed on to the purchaser (for the replacement only of the item
    in question). The performance engine is warranted to start and run properly
    at purchase. WMW will pass that warranty on to the purchaser and extend it
    for the entire vehicle. Everything will function properly at purchase, or
    it will be fixed immediately. When the purchaser takes possession of the
    vehicle, he or she will agree with WMW that everything is in order, and WMW
    has met its obligation to deliver a properly functioning vehicle to the
    purchaser. WMW also warranties that it knows of no major collision damage or rust
    damage on this vehicle.
