Torch40 Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Wait a minute, a 2008 40th? how did that happen? That definately needs to be cleared up if it really did happen. Here's the whole deal, happy reading. The bottom line was they built an '08 into a 40th by mistake http://www.teamshelby.com/forums/index.php...st&p=516753 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vogon Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Excellent! That makes it two of us so far. Come to think of it Vogon and shelby001 would make it four so far. Vista Blue coupe #0093 725 polished KB Blue brakes all the SS upgrades There's 2 more Vista blue 40th's in Calgary as well, one coupe and one vert. Both are 605 HP upgrades. All 3 were in my driveway last year, and I expect will be again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be nice to have 4 Vista Blue, 40th cars, all with HP upgrades lined up for the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be nice to have 4 Vista Blue, 40th cars, all with HP upgrades lined up for the show. June 21st, Father's Day, and the first day of summer? Sounds like a plan... What's Ford Day all about, other than the obvious. There better be hot dogs, man! :happy feet: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
07CSM0260 Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 Cobrafan, Talked with SAI today about interior package and Terlingua. While I was at it I asked about the 40th numbers. As of today there are 236 finished and on the road. I'm not sure how many are still awaiting conversion. I failed to ask about the jackets though. I'll do that next time.

Gerry Chase 1128 Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 Just dropped mine off for the fortieth conversion on April 8th and was assigned #269. I noticed another three which were in various stages of completion. However, there were literally a hundred supersnakes in vairous stages of completion. Almost all that I seen had the polished kenne bell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It definately is a rare package indeed. That is good news. They'll never get to 500. After a couple years - they won't likely take any more orders.

I was worried how the silver stripes were going to look with red. I love the look and the Razors really make the car pop. Getting any power upgrades?

I love the look and the Razors really make the car pop. Getting any power upgrades? When I sent my Coupe in they had numbers open after 381 and up at Vegas, and I think Cynthia said (I could be wrong here\Iam old) the 400 and up I was told were for the other shops that would build the 40th. I really like the red with the silver (I have two of them) But I also like the Blue. The black is nice also, I just felt the other colors did not match up well with the silver stripes (BUT that is my option only) Each to their own preference. :-) Dean 07-XL-0091 07-XL-0219 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am in the Stoon club as well but dont get out much.kg Keep in mind that "Just the base 40th package" is one hell of a package. You will not believe the handling when you get it back, with looks to kill for. It will be a track star if you wish and or a show stopper. Your choice or both.

07scgt500 Posted May 15, 2009 Report Share Posted May 15, 2009 Good choice. Hi guys, I got a 40th black vert 07XL0302. I'm missing some pieces? 40th Floor mats, 40th faux gas cap ring, Shelby engraved door handles and the centre console cover. Did any of you guys get these pieces? I think I was the first 40th done at Tasca, maybe they didn't have all the parts, the door handles hadn't been made yet I think but what about the rest.

07CSM0260 Posted May 15, 2009 Report Share Posted May 15, 2009 You should have received all except for the door handles. I haven't seen them on any of the cars. Dr. Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
