Car Forum / Ford / Ford Mustang / March 2005I guess I'm an a.s man ...
http://automobilemag.com/auto_shows/2005_new_york/0504_shelby_mustang/ The straight-on photo looks great. The side by side comparison with the 2005 Mustang GT makes the GT seem tame. But it's the shot of the rear of the car that gives me goosebumps. Can't explain it, except that maybe that shot says SHELBY more than the others... dwight Dwight - NOW you've gone and done it. I don't like Shelby AND I don't particularly like the 05 But man... I LOVE the way this car looks. AND - 450 + 450 *sigh* You suck. I ask Hubs to buy me this for my birthday, three months to plan, right? He grinned at me like I'm out of my rabbid assed mind. You suck!

This much ignorance is so hard to find in someone that's still breathing, it's hard not to poke at it with a stick to find out what it is now and then. I'm somewhat curious to see what went down in alt.autos.ford, but my reasoning tells me that it couldn't put together enough words in a string to really do much... unless you count "lmfao" as five words, its average word count is somewhere close to four per post. It's hard to be taken seriously when you can't even form a complete sentence. JS >> Kate..... to see what this little sh.t-for-brains can do, go take a gander >> at alt.autos.ford .....

What I'm wondering is why they chose a '68 for the background, especially when the new Shelby looks like it is supposed to more closely resemble the '67 (hood treatment). Especially with all the focus over the last few years on the 67's and the Eleanor fakes that Shelby himself is promoting. SignatureScott W.

The '67 Shelby's had a fairly stock-looking grille opening and quad headlights. Early units had the extra headlights in the middle of the grille; on later units they were moved to the outside, OE '69 Mustang style. Two functional hood scoops were located in the area above the carb. The hood had no air extractors. . The '68's had a huge grille opening, extending down into the front valance and divided by the bumper. They had dual headlights. The dual functional hood scoops were at the front of the hood. The hood had no air extractors. . '69's and '70's had three forward-facing NACA ducts, and two air extractors. One was over the carb area and fed the engine. The other two, one on each side, merely admitted air into the engine compartment. Air extractors were located directly in line with these two, toward the rear of the hood. . This SVT GT500 has the grille opening extending into the valance and dual headlights. It has no cold air induction; it has two air extractors about 1/3 the way back. . Which is a lot of verbiage to say that the SVT car's grille is a copy of the '68, as is the headlight treatment, and the air extractors on the SVT's hood don't really correspond to any Shelby. The only Shelby's with air extractors were the '69's and '70's -- both the 352 ci GT350 and the 427 ci GT500 models :-) -- and they were located well to the rear of the ones on the SVT car. . > Especially with all the focus over > the last few years on the 67's and the Eleanor fakes > that Shelby himself is promoting. .

Either of which I could build for 25% of what one of the rip off artists want for a finished GT500E. And it's Sanderson Sales, not Unique Motorcars. SignatureScott W.

I was diddly bopping around on the web the other night bored out of my skull looking at various classic car dealers websites to see what is out there for sale in the classic arena. Came across a KR and about chocked to death at the asking price. Really, really clean original unmolested car, but a $135,000 grand is a big nut to swallow. > On the other hand, I might just be full of sh.t.... ;) > [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] >> want for a finished GT500E.

Signature"Maybe worshiping the cross and the painful death rather than the well lived life really has distorted our sense of who we are and what life is about." -- Author unkown > It's Sanderson Sales, not Unique Motorcars. Actually, we're both wrong. It's Unique PERFORMANCE that builds the GT500E's. Unique Motorcars is a Shelby Cobra replicar builder, and Sanderson Sales is the "distributor" of the GT500E's, if you can use that word for what are basically one-offs. 180 Out >if you can use > that word for what are basically one-offs. Yeah, I'd say they're "off" a bit. I could build one of those things for less than $25K if I had a good base to start with. SignatureScott W.
