UPDATE!!! UPDATE!!! UPDATE!!! UPDATE!!! UPDATE!!!

 

Shelby Owners, Future Shelby Owners, and all you guys inquiring on the GT500 packages:

 

COMMUNICATIONS:

 

To date, we have converted 42 Shelby GT500s into 40th Anniversary cars. Scheduling is starting to become increasingly faster, and we expect to have approximately 100 of these cars done by the end of the year. The 40th Anniversary package is capped at 500 units. We have sold over 400 packages now, so the availability will be gone soon. We have made a change in the suspension (adding an adjustable pan hard bar). All customers that have had cars that have been delivered prior to this change will be sent the pan hard bar. The bar will come pre adjusted, so you should be able to do a simple swap to readjust the geometry of the rear end.

Any parts that will fit into the trunk or back seat of the car will be shipped to you in it. The other parts will be packaged and shipped to you for a Shipping and Handling fee.

 

SHIPPING OF TAKE OFF PARTS

 

At the time your car is slated to come to our Mod Shop, we will have a quote for the shipment of your take off parts. Due to packaging, you cannot select which parts you take and which parts you do not want shipped. If you are hauling your car and will be taking your parts with you, we can package the parts for an additional fee. If you have any parts that you do not want, we will dispose of them for you.

PRODUCTION UPDATE

 

The Super Snake project will begin late November. We have now built two Super Snakes, the 700+HP concept car(red) and the 600HP concept car (Grabber Orange). Many of you have already seen pictures of these beasts and some have actually seen it in person. “Menacing” is the best word I have heard used to describe it.

 

Super Snake upgrades are available for all GT500 07’ and 08’ model year cars.

 

We have started making calls for the Super Snake and taking deposits and assigning CSM numbers.

 

The CSM Numbering of the Super Snake will look like this:

07SS0001

08SS0001

 

07,08- year model

SS- Super Snake

Cynthia Robinson will be the point of contact on the Super Snake. 702-942-7325 or e-mail at cynthiar@shelbyautos.com. She will be very busy for the next few weeks making calls on the Super Snake. Any general questions about the package can also be answered by Doug Sinclair, at the same number or dougs@shelbyautos.com.

 

 

STRIPES

 

All Super Snake packages will get triple Matte Black Stripes. No exceptions, we want people to be able to recognize this outstanding package from a distance and know exactly what it is…..especially when it approached in their review view mirror…..time to move over…. If you haven’t ordered your car yet and want this package it should be ordered without a stripe to make the conversion cleaner as the old stripes will have to be removed if they are already installed.

 

Super Snake parameters are as follows:

 

2007 or 2008 GT500.

OTHER SUPER SNAKE QUESTIONS

 

We will be offering a discount on the Super Snake package if it is built on the 08’ GT500KR. This discount has not been established. Stay tuned as we finalize the price and content.

 

OTHER QUESTIONS

 

On both packages. We will only give credit for previously modified cars if the components have been purchased from Shelby Performance Parts. The components that we will give credit for must be one of the components used in our package. We will credit you in the amount of the cost for the parts only, not labor. Floor mats are excluded because the mats are different.

 

 

King Of The Road

 

The King of the Road will be hitting the streets in Spring 08. All of the allocations were awarded through a lottery put on by Ford. Contact your local dealer for details on how to get your hands on one of these Kings.

 

The King will be offered in 3 color combinations: Vapor with Blue Stripes, Vista Blue with Silver Stripes and Black with Black stripes. This 540HP monster will bolster Ford Racing Suspension, Exclusive 18” tires and wheels, and a King of the Road Hood with the distinct look that the Shelby’s carried in the late 60’s. The interior will have exclusive badging and embroidered headrests. The 540HP will be attained by a cold air intake and Shelby tune.

 

The King of the Road will begin it’s life in a very similar to how the Shelby GT does. Ford will build the GT500 at it’s plant in Flatrock, Michigan. Any options such as halogen headlights, navigation, Shaker 500 or 1000 stereos and interior options can be added while ordering your KR through your dealer. It will then be shipped to our Las Vegas facility to be upfitted to “the King”. While your vehicle is in Las Vegas, you can take advantage of our Museum Delivery Program to pick up your car RIGHT HERE AT SHELBY WORLD HEADQUARTERS! Contact Adrienne Poplin for details. AdrienneP@shelbyautos.com

 

But before you make arrangements to pick your car up here, be sure to browse www.ShelbyPerformanceParts.com to see if there is anything else we can add for you while your car is being upfitted.

Speaking of having this package installed starting at $18,995. Many of you may have heard about our authorized Mod Shops that we are opening nationwide. Right now, we are happy to announce that we have added two Mod Shops to our Team. Tasca Ford, in Rhode Island, has been a longtime friend of Shelby. They have once again teamed up with us to be able to offer an authorized Shelby Mod Shop on the East Coast. For you guys in the South, we partnered with Quantum Performance, in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. Either of these two Mod centers will be able to upfit you Mustang into a 40th Anniversary, a Super Snake, or a Terlingua. They will also be offering upgrades to Mustang owners that want to add that Shelby “Zing” without adding a complete package to their car. Contact Chris Pessinis at ChrisP@ShelbyAutos.com for more information.

 

Be sure to watch your local news stands! The Shelby Super Snake was recently featured on the cover of Road & Track’s December issue. Also, Shelby’s “Back to the Future” Annual has just been released and will give great insight to the rich history of Shelby, current programs going on at Shelby Automobiles, and a good idea of where we will to be going in the future! These magazines as well as others that may feature one of our Shelby Mustangs can be found at your local book stores, grocery stores, and department stores that carry periodicals.

 

As you can see from this update, we have many exciting things happening. And you know, we have more coming.

 

Thank you for your continued interest in genuine Shelby Performance packages. They truly make your Shelby something special. Your business and satisfaction are important to us.

 

Best regards,

 

Team Shelby.

No mention of the 600hp upgrade price on the 40th Anniv. version?

 

700hp is $10,000, but no price for the 600hp listed.

Just for you noticing... free today only! AND, that's not all! In order to get your free upgrade you will need to call between 1:47:43 and 1:47:44 today and you'll get our special no obligation gift. A picture of me.

I thought SAI was not going to limit the 40th anniversary car in numbers, but only in the time frame of when they could be done (a years time frame) from the time they (SAI) started building them or after the Mod shops were approved (announced) so we didn't have to truck them all the way to Lost Wages?

 

Also, how does this coincide with the SS if I want a 40th Anniversary Super Snake & was told I have a time limit of 3 years from the time they start building them to have it done?
