Damn he had to throw the red card in on me....lol

 

My list has just began because I have only had my car for 2 months. Some people Have a very long list of mods and mine will continue to grow every day.

 

If you don't want to list the total amount like I did, that is fine.

 

But how about a list of mods and what you got in them.........that is what I am really looking for at it will give people Ideas for different prices.

I will have to do some research on this. I just use the credit card, and the old lady pays it! :hysterical2::hysterical::hysterical2:

lol.......

 

That was the first time I even thought about it. The ole lady walk in and seen what I was doing and she guessed higher than what I actually spent. So if she guessed 3k over the total in my opinion that means I have permission to spend 3k on whatever I want. :hysterical2::hysterical::hysterical2:

Does everyone remember seeing the commercial where they show the cobra emblem with the snake spraying steam from its mouth and hissing?

 

I pointed that out to my wife and told her I wish there was a way I could get that to do that everytime I had to engage the clutch! How cool that would be to have steam spraying out from all the cobra emblems like that!

 

Then one day while in the car while along side of a building you could hear the hissing sound from pushing in the clutch and said to her, you hear that? That is the snake hissing!

 

She says, HOW MUCH DID THAT COST???? YOU HAD THAT PUT ON!!! LOL :hysterical::hysterical:

The more time I spend on this forum, the more money I'll spend on the Shelby!! :doh:

Man isn't that the truth! I've bought stuff after seeing it on this forum that I never even knew I needed! (like mirror inserts, Shelby autographed floormats, a Shelby license plate frame, hood struts, short antenna, etc.)! The only thing I knew from day 1 I wanted was CAI/Pulley/Tune, and I haven't even saved up enough for that yet! Soon, though ...

 

My total as it stands is appx. 51,000 (49,000 for car and close to 2,000 in mods so far ... but that # will be climbing -- see my sig)
