67stangracer Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 I took delivery of CSM 08GT0072 on Jan 6, finally . This is my first new Mustang since May, 1964 and the first Shelby that I have owned. It is a Grabber Orange GT-C that I bought long distance via email and phone calls from Ford West in Bellflower, CA. I saw it only in pictures on eBay, and it was love at first sight. I actually purchased and owned it as of Dec 6, 2007, but getting the paperwork back and forth across the country, arranging enclosed transportation duing the holidays, and the 2600 mile trip to Concord, NC took 30 agonizing days. The car arrived with 11.5 miles on the odometer and as clean as when it left the showroom. It really feels good having such a cool car :burnout: , especially as it may be the only one in NC and maybe outside of California.

That's a great color and I'm sure it will be one of the few grabber orange SGT's on the east coast! I think you'll really like the improvements they've made since 1964 1/2! :happy feet: -yellow pony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clark17357 Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 Congratulations on the GO SGT. Most of us have pretty rare cars just becasue there are so few SGTs. You, given where you live, are not likely to ever see another GO SGT locally. It looks super. Have you been able to wipe the smile off your face yet?

Now that you have it home, I'm sure you'll agree that seeing the car in person... it looks even better. Be prepared for alot of gawkers... They didn't call it GO for no reason. Again, enjoy your California Dream and welcome to TS. R/ J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
