Cobramach1 Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 I could have swore I saw one on Woodward last weekend too because it didn't have the right hood and a lot of things were out of place on the car. Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdwaterHotrod Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 it was just a matter of time, now he just needs to replace the rear spoiler with the correct V-6 pony spoiler & he's all set Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShelbyDude Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 it was just a matter of time, now he just needs to replace the rear spoiler with the correct V-6 pony spoiler & he's all set And the brakes and the wheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisminx Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 does the KR come with window scoops? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobramach1 Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 The thing that sucks for those you with the GT500's now and all these knock offs being made after the fact is you are now going to get the question whether yours is a real one. As a genuine owner will that bother you if someone asks you? I know it wouldn't bother me when we get ours in the future, but just curious if it bothers those of you who have them now? Maybe this is a question for a whole new thread specifically if that question would bother anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Morris Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 I have an SS and have had a guy or 2 ask me if its a "real" Super Snake. That doesnt bother me. I have no problem proving what it is. michael morris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertlane Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 Nice attempt, but BUZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ - thanks for playing and try again. Several pointers clearly give this away as a clone. I do like the interpetation though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMcGuirk Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 Shelby Dude, you are right - it needs brakes to pull anything off. I do like the look but the KR side stripes ruin it. If you want a KR, buy a KR. If you want a GT 500, buy a GT 500. If you want to have fun, Rogerize it and make it your own! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotrodrock Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 I myself, would not even come close to mistaking that for a KR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a lot of clones are made where everyone starts thinking everyone they see is probably a clone, that could mean less people likely to mess with our cars when they are sitting in a parking lot or somewhere. :happy feet: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeshelby Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 wow, got to love the black car...........hood pins in the wrong place, letters at rear wrong...........and someone will like that car??? dummies Even my wife noticed the pins were in the wrong place, no SHELBY on the front and Shelby on the back was too close together.... if she can figure out the difference, then anyone can!!! Trust me... she even said that !! Areal mustang lover knows what a real one looks like and they stay close enough away to appreciate it!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertlane Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 At least get the hood pins and rear lettering close. It's obvious he has photos of how it's supposed to look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DubbsFaris Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 Yeah I have seen 2 clones sold by Jordan Ford that are sold as GT350... One Vista blue white stripe, one black red stripe coupe I would have thought that was infringement...but I guess they can do it....the only thing they leave off is the Shelby lettering Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starkie Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 Why would anybody care what somebody else does with their car? I know I bought a 500, so if somebody clones one good for them. Keeps the economy going. And they can have all the stock parts I take off mine to make it faster.....lol. Starkie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3ponies Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 I could have swore I saw one on Woodward last weekend too because it didn't have the right hood and a lot of things were out of place on the car. Oh well. There was a Blue FAKE one on Woodward. I was walking by the SVT area and I saw what I thought was a KR across the street by the Shelby Area. The hood was up and I wanted to see the Engine bay on a KR. I ask my friend to walk over. As we get close I see no SC and I say it is a Fake! The dude comes running over and yelling at me don't call my car a fake! He runs to the trunk and gets out a book with pictures and shows me a pikcture of a Kenne Bell SC and says do you have one of these? I say no and you have no SC at all. He then tells us he was at Shelby's 85th Birthday Party, and we say so were 5000 other people. Finally we leave and he runs us down at the other end of the lot with more " Don't call my car a fake " So I say, OK I won't but it is NOT A SHELBY! The SVT guys loved the story.. :happy feet: If you see a Light Blue kinda looks like a KR run really fast!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
