86SVO Posted August 12, 2007 Report Share Posted August 12, 2007 How long have you been waiting? According to Shelby born as a Shelby 4/27/07 - waiting for mod since. Do you have projected date of completion/delivery? End of May; revised to third week of June, revised again sometime mid July, revised again end of August, I am not sure... Are you waiting for an unmodified ordered car; one from dealer stock that has not arrived; mod shop car? Mod Shop what mods are you having done? S/C non-polish - guages - lower grill and front lights (done) - brake cooling kit - Shelby caps kit - The waiting is agonizing but not more than thinking about Las Vegas sun that is what is my biggest worry and agony Receipt Date: 12/14/2006 Serialize Date: 2/9/2007 Segment Date: 2/9/2007 Sequence Date: 2/20/2007 Blend Date: 2/27/2007 Produced Date: 3/8/2007 Gate Release Date: 3/8/2007 Ship Date: 3/14/2007 Sold Date: 3/9/2007 Arrival Date at Shelby: 4/14/07 Modified as a Shelby GT: 4/2707 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have projected date of completion/delivery? Are you waiting for an unmodified ordered car; one from dealer stock that has not arrived; mod shop car? If it is in the mod shop, what mods are you having done? Tell us what you DO know. I ordered the car in March. I do not have a projected date of completion or delivery. My dealer thought it would be here by the end of June but they do not really have a clue about these cars. I hope the car is in the mod shop or at least in line - all I am having done is the lower grill/lights and sequential tail lights. I know nothing except the car arrived at SAI. I am a patient guy but fall is approaching and some of the season’s last car related events are fast approaching. I guess I can still drive my 64 Galaxie to them.

With the grille and lights and sequential's that car should be done. You would think that the dealer would be checking. :blink: S/C non-polish - guages - lower grill and front lights (done) - brake cooling kit - Shelby caps kit - The waiting is agonizing but not more than thinking about Las Vegas sun that is what is my biggest worry and agony Receipt Date: 12/14/2006 Serialize Date: 2/9/2007 Segment Date: 2/9/2007 Sequence Date: 2/20/2007 Blend Date: 2/27/2007 Produced Date: 3/8/2007 Gate Release Date: 3/8/2007 Ship Date: 3/14/2007 Sold Date: 3/9/2007 Arrival Date at Shelby: 4/14/07 Modified as a Shelby GT: 4/2707 Looks like your car is approaching 16 weeks from arrival. :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFBLUE Posted August 13, 2007 Report Share Posted August 13, 2007 all I am having done is the lower grill/lights and sequential tail lights. This is a perfect example of why I'm not going to send my car to the mod shop for wheels and a lower grille/lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

86SVO Posted August 13, 2007 Report Share Posted August 13, 2007 Man, the mod shop needs to hire more people. You wait is ridiculous. I was in Las Vegas in June and I do understand the waiting issue, but I wish I knew it was going to take this long, I would have done something to put it away (until ready for the mods) from the sun that is what I am pancking about.

I hear you Mark. When I posted this I was trying to calculate wait time. That was the intent. By the 08 run you probably will not have the same wait as the first group of cars due to the overwhelming initial response of the Mod Shop. They will have caught up.

I know your worried but if it's any consulation, I did see,, up close, a car that had been there since March and I did see NO issues with the car other than being dusty.

ShelbyPilot Posted August 14, 2007 Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 ....nope their is a clause in the contract that says SAI can't deliver any 2008s until all of the 2007s, including mod shop Shelby GTs and 40th Anniversary GT500s are delivered. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news AFBlue. :P .....because I am sure somebody won't get the sarcasm, the above is a complete fabrication. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, we might be bringing up the rear on getting our cars but just think of the positive side. Our cars will have the hood scoop, exhaust rattle, stripe bubble problems solved. Plus, I bet we get the Ford Racing oil filter too. It will all start over with 2008 – sorry, AFBlue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAI-John Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 Guys, I understand your plight. I promise you, our intentions are not to keep your car from you, keep it baking in the sun, etc. We are working on getting the cars out. I have a list of 49 cars that still are waiting for mods. We are getting help hired in to help out. Of the 49 cars, the mods are mixed. Bud is sorting through them now to get the car that are waiting for the "smaller" mods out and delivered. The cars with the longest waits will be for superchargers and brake systems. -John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though my car is baking, at least it is baking as a Shelby. But, I would like it "al dente" not over cooked Bruno Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not lost the faith. I am sure everyone is working very hard to get the cars out the door and into our hands. It is sort of like waiting for Christmas when I was 10 years old - the days just dragged by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
