SP360 Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 Hey there! My name is Elliot. I'm new here and have a question for you all. I recently purchased a Shelby Durango.(I know, not the most popular thing on this site) Someone had the bright idea to steal the # plates. One goes on the radiator support and the other inside near the cup holders. I have verification that the truck is #163. Is there any way for me to get new # plates for it? Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Looks like this(but of course it says #163) http://i14.ebayimg.com/01/i/001/25/0c/64cb_0.JPG Elliot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shelbymotorsports Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 Elliot Welcome to the Team Shelby forums, glad you found us. Your Shelby Durango was produced by a third party, Perfromance West Group with a license from Carroll Shelby. While its a longshot your best bet would be to contact them at www.performancewestgroup.com and see if they can help. On a positive note at least you know what number your Shelby Durango is.

SP360 Posted March 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 OK. I finally got a call back from Performance West, they were out of town on business. Ok so here it goes. They were very nice, but unfortunately they are not able to help. They do not have any info of any of the shops or people involved in Shelby Durango project , due to the fact that it was 10 years ago. He did try to recall, but nothing came to mind. Said that the last time they fielded a call regarding the Shelby Durango must have been about 5 years ago. Also said that some of the manufacturers are now out of business, so parts would be hard to come by. Elliot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get about 4-6 calls a year from folks looking for various parts for the Shelby Durango's. But I didn't even know Performance West was still in business. I have no resources or contacts at all for the vehicles. I've heard a ton of stories and the only thing I've been able to offer folks has been sympathy. About the only thing folks can do for spare or needed parts is to buy a wrecked or salvaged one. Thanks for posting up their response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SP360 Posted March 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 I found a website for one of the two companies that worked on the Shelby Durango. They are Race Truck Trends in CA. The other shop is Star Coach in GA. I have not found anything Star Coach yet. I'll keep you posted if I find anything else. http://www.racetrucktrends.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
