Picked my Alloy coupe up on Sep 29th :happy feet: built Aug 28th to the 30th. Don't know anyone in my area that has one, however I do know someone that thought he had one. Do you have one??

crispy23c Posted November 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2006 Wow, the N.E. must like Alloy! I was good to go (verbal) with Bonnell Ford (Winchester, MA) for a 'vert on a verbal. Had this agreement w/the dealer for over a year,started the list there, and then they turned on me about 2 weeks before the order banks opened. $25k over sticker. Very frustrating. So, for right now, I have no Shelby, and will wait till the price drops to near MSRP (sorry, can't swallow +$20k for any car). Glad to hear we all have good taste. My car would have been Alloy Vert/Black/Black. Some day... It's a damn good thing I'm a patient guy! :hyper: :hyper: :hyper: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

croschke Posted November 30, 2006 Report Share Posted November 30, 2006 I'm in Springfield. Got my Alloy/Silver/Black 3 weeks ago after months of begging the dealer to sell it to me for reasonable price. Traded in my 05 Black/Black GT that I had for two years.

brianspony Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 Wow!!!!!! Look at all these Alloy's in New England. :hyper: I ordered Alloy because I didn't think it would be a popular color, although I do love the color very much. Guess I was wrong again. Took mine off the road officially last Friday Dec 1st. It's tucked away with it's older brother for the winter. 1500 miles before I tucked it in. Can't wait till spring, :happy feet: . I cancelled the collision part on my insurance, can't wait to see what I will save on insurance. We all need to get together next year and show off our new toys. Merry Christmas to all.

Just curious :hyper: I found out when mine was built through dealer being posted by regional rep. Your dealer should be able to assist you. As far as the order in which it was built, i'm not sure. Maybe your dealer can get that info as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I let my original deal fall between the cracks because I too would not spend 15K over sticker, but I have no patience. I know I paid a lot of money for mine, but I think I know what it will be worth in 25 years when I pass it down to my sons. I paid a little now, they will benefit hopefully in the future. Good luck, I hope your patience will pay out in the long run for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crispy23c Posted December 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 Thanks, I appreciate the thought. I think I may be able to get something done in the next 6 months, but it's a killer! :hyper: :hyper: Then we can all go out for a cruise! And I thought winter would help me calm down...

drlovegun Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 We should all go the the NH Mustang Club's show on Father's day this spring. They hold it in Nashua, NH, right on the MA border. How freakin cool would it be to have a row of Alloy Shelby? There's usually about 200 cars there too and it's a great time!

FastFordNut Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 I'm in Upton, MA. Right near Brian in Hopedale. Thats a really sharp looking SC/GT. I spent some time looking it over at the show. How did you manage to get that parking spot??? My friend Hank owns the both of the 65 GT 350's that were parked next to you. That whole line-up along the trailer made a great Kodak moment. Enjoy the holidays, See you on the road in the spring. Norm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy the holidays, See you on the road in the spring. Norm Thank you Norm. That day was like a wedding day for me. With all the planning and excitement, the whole day was a blur. Did you and I get a chance to chat? If not, I apologize but I was preoccupied, eager and laser focused awaiting Mr. Shelby’s sig that day so I hardly remember whom I spoke with. I had been working with Tasca to make my car a Tasca Shelby since January. Look in my picasa or pbotobucked sites in my sig for an article about a 1967 Tasca Shelby (and other Tasca items). I was replicating that (well without the CJ engine). In April, Tasca asked me to showcase my car at the show; especially since Mr. Shelby was coming. My car arrived at Tasca only 3 days prior to that event. It was supposed to have gotten there earlier so Tasca could have done more mods before I took delivery but there were delays. They have since done the mods and I have my Tasca badges (interior and exterior – see Photobucket) so my car is officially a 2007 Tasca Shelby. My car was also lined up there as it was going to have been signed by Mr. Shelby at that event but with the heat so bad, he wasn't able to come back. I hope to finally get it signed at the birthday bash somehow. Hank is cool. Tell him I said hello. I have spoken with him before but didn’t get a chance to speak with him that much at the event. I was happy for him when he finally got his glove box covers signed – in person. Look in my picasa or Photobucket sites for more pics of that day (Aug 25th). I have pics of all the cars (SS, KR, GT, Hanks cars and mine). Send the link to Hank so he can see too. My car was parked in the Tasca body shop for those few days. I have pics of my car lined up with the Supersnake, KR and GT prototype from the night before that look really cool. I’m looking forward to meeting you someday.
