442forever(noolds) Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 The light at the end of the tunnel is very bright. A new delivery date with railcar info was given to me by the dealer Monday morning. 12/28. And it may be sooner. With some leg work I learned it was unloaded from the railcar wednesday. They do deliver saturday's. I am just oncall waiting for an expecting father type phone call. The owner of this dealer," unlike my other two experiences", has been true to his word up to this point and has expressed he will accomodate my special requests. Calling me when it arrives, putting the car in a corner inside so it doesn't get manhandled etc.,. I have no reason to think I will get the rug pulled out from under me this time. There is of course the 7.5ADM. My feelings are such that it is every persons perogative to spend within their means as much as they desire without ridicule. People, life is short. Do what makes you happy now cause the light can go out at anytime. Wasting time ripping someone for doing what makes them happy is a far bigger waste. Period. I am now glad my teen desire of owning a shelby was unrealized.The payoff now is much more appreciated. For those dealers that shafted me pre now, all I can say is kharma baby. My car is forth coming, and I am a happy man. I think when I slide into the seat to drive her home,I'll close my eye's and see if I can recall some 25 years ago, me and two military buddies alone on a reef break in Okinawa. Dropping in on a perfect left, well overhead. A memory that I take to the end as one of lifes best. Being a goofy and all. Just about time to top it. Weather permitting.

Alloy Dave Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 The light at the end of the tunnel is very bright. A new delivery date with railcar info was given to me by the dealer Monday morning. Great news. What was your "born" date? Mine was 11/29...so I'm trying to see how we compare. No word on my car yet other than "released from plant". Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
442forever(noolds) Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 11/20. Your right behind me. And if your info is like mine, You won't know squat unless your dealer follows his daily status sheet and informs you when he has an ETTX number for shipping. Everything else is propaganda.

SHELBY1 Posted December 28, 2006 Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 Good for you Shelby1, You will be starting the new year out in style. Keep the PSDS under control friend.!! I received an email yesterday from my dealer stating that my car was produced and is in "bucked" status with an ETA of January 23rd. Does "bucked" status mean the car has gone down the line, is built, and is soon heading to Woodhaven facility for striping? Sorry if this has been asked before.

Bucked means your car is on a factory carrier and is going threw the process of being built, you will see your car in about three to four weeks.

442forever(noolds) Posted December 28, 2006 Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 My car was unloaded from the railcar on the 19th and has been sitting there ever since. My dealer has tried contacting the rep and stated he'd like the car asap. No call back from the rep. Nice huh? And the game continues. Third delivery date has come and gone. It is pretty sad they can't make the last one considering it's been sitting at the rail yard for 9 day's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So close and yet so far, but when it finally arrives it will be so worth it . . . so hang in there. CC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
