Blip Posted September 3, 2008 Report Share Posted September 3, 2008 Thanks for the comments. Sharon--glad you like it, but almost didn't post it because of the rough quality of the doodle. (If I get some extra time, I'll try to make a cleaner version.) And yes, I do a few private, commissioned CAR-toon designs each year. I'm retired from the military and now do these drawings as a kind of home-hobby business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShelbyGT/SC Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 Sharon/Robert, that car is absolutely amazing! I think it is definitely my favorite top 3 of all the new Shelby's. The orange SGT with silver Razors, mine and that one. No particular order, I love all three. Well done. Can't wait to see it live. Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharon Posted September 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 Wow! That is quite the transformation!! Thanks for the reply. I know I have to admit I was against the yellow at first. Robert talked me into it. Then when I was it on the lot, I had my doubts that the little yellow V6 would look good. Man was I wrong. But don't tell Robert he was right he already has to big of head.

Bravo! :happy feet: Me two, I was unsure but I thought with a yellow car that the yellow rabbit might be to much. I was unsure so I told them to surprise me, maybe that is why I got the backwords bunny a real surprise I do really like the silver now it is even better in person.

ShelbyGT/SC Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 Yes I leave them on. Last year in prep for the CSBB Roger came up with the idea of the rookie stripes and I came up with the idea of the other stickers. I thought that since there would be racing I'd put the stickers on. I left them on since that's how the car was for a once in a lifetime experience. I am all about history and adding pedigree to the car. Plus I race the car when I can and I loke the look.

I remember you putting the last few on in the Petersen Museum garage before we took off on the Bullrun to Las Vegas. I may have a picture of you in action. I'll look around and see if I can find it.

Sharon, It's almost like you found this poor, abandoned little Mustang that was shivering in the cold rain and wishing it could just have a nice home where someone would keep it forever and, maybe, let it sleep inside. Then you came along and saved that poor little car from its fate. Guess I should have completed this story line and entered it in the Terlingua essay contest. Darn!

Paleoc Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 Wow!!! Awesome! The car really stands out. I bet it gets a lot of attention. The Silver bunny was a great idea. I did not get to take it on the track yet, which is what I am most looking forward to, but the best thing that I liked was that people could not believe that it is a V6. People would hear the sound and tell me there was no way this was a V6 and then when you opened the hood to show people they where amazed. I added V-6 stickers to the plenum cover on my CS-6 for the exact same reason. People (including the Ford District rep at Ottawa) would ask how much horsepower I was putting out. When I told them 380 (I switched out the SC pulley for a smaller one), they would wrinkle their nose thinking it's a V-8. Then I would have to point out that it is a V-6 and then they would say Wow. So I finally put a V-6 sticker right on the front of the plenum cover so there would be no doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
