Milstang Posted November 13, 2007 Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 Well I finally made it out and took some pictures of the car. I know the engine bay is filthy, it is next on my list of stuff to clean once I take a few days to recover some more. B) Will add a few more.... In a few more days when I feel better I will get some better pictures. I wish I could figure out how to resize these better... :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Shelby_merged Posted November 13, 2007 Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 Looks great. Especially love that hood. Mine is #2690; I think I remember that we ordered them the same day. Looking forward to seeing it in person soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShelbyGT/SC Posted November 13, 2007 Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 Brian, I am so happy for you. Your car looks amazing. I am really happy for you that you're back home and have your fine looking car. Great selection of options all around. It really looks fantastic. Take care and be safe in that monster. The power is incredible and the brakes are even more amazing. You will be tempted to want to challenge every tough guy that drives by you that looks like their car is fast. Don't do it. Take the high road and just be proud of your car. You'll get more respect from not proving your worthiness than you will winning the race. Your car has so much power that you'll spin the tires in 3rd gear like you're on ice. Similarly, even if you're in second gear and pressing on the pedal with some decent acceleration behind you and then floor it, you'll still spin those tires like on ice. Take it to somewhere really safe and try these things out before you get crazy on the road. You won't believe how much power you have. Oh, and get some panhard rods. Be safe my friend and congrats.

riharely Posted November 13, 2007 Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 Good Luck with the car. It is absolutely stunning. Is that church in Mattapoisett, MA ? I lloks like a church where I used spend summers when I was a kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe me this has already happened but from the other side. I get ricer flybys all the time and everyone reving their engine next to me. Why would I want to waste the gas? Plus I don't do that stuff except in a controlled environment. I do want to get some panhard rods as well. I was looking at other vendors until I saw Shelby is coming out with more goodies. Lucky me...I just need to pay off what I already have. There are SO many other things I am going to have done to and with the car...but Uncle Sam doesn't pay me that much. So I am pacing myself. It will take a few years to get there but the journey will be so much fun. :D The Church is in Birmingham, AL and was just the closest nice spot I could go too. Once I feel better I will go to some other locations. ...and yes, I am SC for Jesus. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reino Posted November 13, 2007 Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 Absolutely Beautiful Car! Looking Good How did you get the signature on the airbag cover? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milstang Posted November 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 Absolutely Beautiful Car! Looking Good How did you get the signature on the airbag cover? That was because of John at SAI!! He made a deal with me, I left my car in June to be on the Shelby Museum floor for part of my deployment and he got a signature from some guy who comes in from time to time. You would think he owns the place the way he walks around talking to people from what I hear!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milstang Posted November 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 Milstang, what size tires? 20's...only thing that will fit over the brakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strawman Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 20's...only thing that will fit over the brakes. No, I mean specifically, what tire size, as in width and tirewall height? Did you put wider tires on the rear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milstang Posted November 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 No, I mean specifically, what tire size, as in width and tirewall height? Did you put wider tires on the rear? I know they are wider in the back. Bud put them on and once I can bend over and look at the lower side of my car I will tell you. Still unable to kneel, sit etc so it might be a bit.

SGT Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 What kind of instrument panel do you have. I see the Interior Upgrade Package. But why is the instrument panel not Satin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFBLUE Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Because you can choose either Charcoal or Satin. I also picked the Charcoal IUP interior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milstang Posted November 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Because you can choose either Charcoal or Satin. I also picked the Charcoal IUP interior. Exactly, I wanted it mostly black inside with some silver like on the outside. I will add some of the interior pieces at a later date...when I pay off the first batch of mods.
