CRQuarto Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 If you saw some of the stuff these guys made out of the most basic, and sometimes strangest things, you would be amazed. Hell, you probably already are amazed after seeing that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were using inmates or ex-cons or something to build their continuation Shelby mustangs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelbymotorsports Posted September 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 I don't know too much about how Unique Performance worked but Shelby hooked up with the folks at the Imperial Palace Auto Museum who had been using Nevada inmates for years restoring their antique cars. IIRC correctly Shelby only used the inmates for a few years until the Vegas facility was completed in 1998. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
