SpeedRacer Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 300 or 500 doesn't matter too much to me except that I may be able to do another one in the near future. These cars are just amazing after the conversion and I wouldn't have one any other way!! Yes, I use mine and the value may not hold, but then again, I bought the car to drive. I'm closing in on 9000 miles and several hundred of those around tracks. GREAT CARS! I agree. I drive mine as well. Almost 20,000 miles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gofastturnleft Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 I was one of the 15 and I have number 300. So the numbers and build order are not related. Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Tony, Thank God I didn't pay the ransom to terrorist kidnappers, you escaped! You are right, the SAI number, in most cases, has nothing to do with build sequence or the number produced. It could, but doesn't necessarially. It is just a number that they use to track your car through their system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freakshow12 Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 this is good info, I just got that magazine and am really thinking of doing mine. it only has 1000 miles on it so I think its worth it. what happens though if you already have some of the stuff thats in the package? do you get a bit of a discount?

They will give you credit for the engine caps I think... But not much more than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

txcobra Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 They will refund you for parts included in the package that you have already purchased, ONLY IF: 1) you purchased from Shelby parts only 2) you can provide a receipt showing what you paid They deduct that amount from the total cost of the package. This was the deal when I did mine....but check with Cynthia or someone at SAI to confirm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobrafan Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Stripes are only in Silver. Wheels choose from: Gunmetal, Black, Silver & Chrome. The choices for stripes are actually "SSSSS" (Special Shelby Satin Silver Stripes) or "SSSSS". If you push hard you can get "SSSSS" This stripe does look pretty good on every combination though. I have not heard one person with any color combination say their 40th Anniversary was ugly. :-) Most just look it at and say OMG! I did not get credit for my engine caps, but got a whole new set in the trunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GT500_Grad Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 I had just talked to Cynthia last month and she said that there was only about 300 sold so far and they were still planning on selling all 500. Maybe the word didn't get to her yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have fun, I can't wait to get back on again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
