hotrodrock Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 Just about anything can be cloned, but I was wondering where he got the Super Snake emblems. I guess possibly off a wrecked one. There were some replica emblems for sale last year on ebay, but they got removed. Haven't seen any lately on there though. Price is not bad though for one that heavily modified. http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?ct=p...mp;cardist=1504 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vapor08GT500 Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 the guys name is Sean Wheeler. I talked to him when he had it on ebay...he is a scammer, insisting it is a real Super Snake and told ME that I didn't know what I was talking about!!!

thewheelman Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 So, how did he get the CS signature dash plaque? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbackg Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 I think we all agree it is not a SS. However, in fairness to the seller, the Ad-description says $15K in SS options. Looking at the pictures, all parts & add-on mods we can all buy from SPP & Shelby independent suppliers. I bet alot of SS owners wish that they had the option to have a different color stripe setup. My car is black. I wish I could go with silver stripes. and no, I am not a Raider fan. smile.gif $40K for an 08 GT500 with all those mods = Great price. However, I really like my HID headlamps. Must have been an early production 08. Probably needs a new Tranny! How did he get the Super Snake exterior badging? Yes we all hate posers, should we hang NASCAR Fox announcer, Mike Joy, for calling the 08/09 Vapor SS pace car a "twenty-ten". YES! hang him. he should know better. Did anyone see the Vista Blue KR in the Shelby museum with huge matching front and rear calipers - blue color matching? hmmmmmm - makes you wonder!

silver08elly Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 Well ya its a fake. As for the dash plaque look close. We all get that one. Its a hand signature wich means its the 350 one from SPP. If it was laser etched it would be the SS one. And u can getthe badging custome done. If he had done alcoas and a black stripe we would have to be pretty good to not notice. Its a faily fast car too. Its on youtube. Heres the link for that. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Fb7Q9rMco4 Sounds good and has got some go fast in it. Id buy it if not for the wheels and the stripe.

MY500SS Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 Looks like the correct side stripes but he's got them on the wrong sides, drivers on the passenger side/ passenger on the drivers side. GT500 should be towards the front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hisssss Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 The hood is wrong too, and the exterior emblems don't look quite rite, the corners seem too sharp. A cool car none the less Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuckstang Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 prpbably just easier to say super snake A super snake is just a modded GT500 so as long as its a real GT500, thats what matters most It looks pretty legit, as in, fast and cool Also, why is it I have a real authentic sharpy CS signature on my dash plaque and yet KR and SS owners just get a laser cut rendition. I think thats pretty funny LOL, unless my signature was done by some other SAI employee which many of my buddies tease me for thinking its real I hope it is!

FiaCobra Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 The car is nice without the SS badging. I would hate to have to explain that's it's not an "authentic" SS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewheelman Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 Never want to be a wannabe! That's the reason I didn't buy a GT and mod it up with Shelby dress up stuff. What was that old disco song? "Got to be real" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
