    Shelby Mustang Email List
    ------------------------------
    One more question that occurred to me as I was tweaking the list.
    This list was set up for owners of Shelby Mustangs built from
    1965-1970. As we all know there are some re-issue Mustangs that have
    Shelby serial numbers.
    How do you feel about those cars being viewed as Shelby Mustangs?
    Would you welcome them as members of this list? Or do we restrict it
    to conversations on the "real" Shelby Mustangs built before 1970?

    By the way, Does anyone own one of those new GT350Rs? How about one
    of those Dallas Mustang TransAm re-issues? Anybody buy an Eleanor? I
    would like to do an article/web page with information about what
    these cars are with lots of good pics.
    Dennis

    You asked


    "> Would you welcome them as members of this list? Or do we restrict it
    > to conversations on the "real" Shelby Mustangs built before 1970?


    I believe that the two have little in common relating to the general
    conversations we have here. Values of the real Shelby, what is original and
    not and subjects like this tend to be the mainstay for this list so far. If
    I want to be on a modified Mustang list or forum there are plenty of them I
    could participate with/on. Of course it will be the groups choice and there
    may be those that stay, those that join and those that go.


    "> How do you feel about those cars being viewed as Shelby Mustangs?"

    They are not Shelbys to me ... just a group of cars who's builders paid
    money to get the Shelby ok. Not happy at all with SAAC including them in the
    registry in my mind they are just another form of resto-mod. Might as well
    include the Shelby Dodges and the California Specials ..... they seem to
    have more to do with CS than these cars

    As always (just being honest) just one opinion

    I agree with Jeff also. Just because CS is only money hungry these
    days doesn't mean we have to these later model restomods, which would
    tend to only give them greater exposure.

    Shelby Mustang Email List
    ------------------------------
    Dennis:
    In a word, "NO". In my mind they are not Shelbys.
    This is not to say the "other Shelbys" are not attractive, that doesn't make
    them Shelbys just because 'ol Shel got megabucks to stick his name on them.
    Just my opinion.

    All-
    I, too, concur w/Jeff. "Keepin' it real" should be our motto. Clones,
    "wanna be's" and re-created cars from C-codes and the like may have a place
    in the automotive world but not on this list and the information exchanged
    here shouldn't be diluted by them.
