    Just to fill you in.......that is not a Shelby GT 500. It is either a Ronaele or a Cervini's Mustang.

    This video was all over the other Mustang sites around Thanksgiving last year. It is a Cervini Mustang. The Ronaele's look simular but don't have the pin stripe following the LeMans stripes.

    Well......It does say Shelby GT 500 at the top of the screen. Maybe you should have changed the heading.

    They were all morons - morons for buying a car like that for a kid who'd be lucky to properly pilot my daughter's pedel car, much less the car they turned him loose on!

    Now we know why our insurance is expensive for our toys...

    This is a Vid floating around that has a very nice Fiberglass Cobra Kit Car that a guy was letting his wife test drive around the block alone. she showed many MANY signs that the car was way too much for her to handle just backing it out of the drive way. He had many chances to stop her but decided to keep video taping her instead. She made it about 80 yards before wiping it out on a parked Car. The Cobra was Maroon and beautiful. At least it was not a Shelby.

    He absolutely got what he was asking for. Just plain stupid. I believe Mr. Shelby once remarked that about 10% of the original Cobras were wrecked before the first month's payment was ever made.
