    Thanks for the "heads up."

    Motor Trend had a good article a month or two ago about the Shelby GT as well.

    Also, in that same issue there was another interesting article discussing the collector car market and opinions about whether certain cars should be restored or left original. Along the same lines was yet another good article about an unrestored 289 Cobra that is driven regularly without the worry about rocks kicking up and chipping the paint, etc.

    Good reading. :thumbsup:
