Reino Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 Just wondering if anyone has purchased the Shelby GT book yet from Team Shelby? http://www.shelbystore.com/product-p/b4.htm Im really wanting one but not sure about spending 60 bucks on a book that doesnt even have the number of pages listed. If you have bought one what are your thoughts and is it worth the money? Thanks, Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilmor Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 I've been curious about that also. It's also a lot of money for a book that is not a hard cover book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnut12 Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 I bought one along with many other things during the sale, but have not received anything yet. I am not sure what the hold up is, it has been a few weeks. I may send an e-mail to see what is going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure what the hold up is, it has been a few weeks. I may send an e-mail to see what is going on. Just FYI, it states its "in stock" but "usually ships in 4-6 weeks". Wonder why it takes them so long to ship and item thats in stock.... Anyways, youll have to let us know what you think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
08SGT1977 Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 I purchased it but have not received it yet. I purchased the Mustang Masterpieces and that is a very nice book with lots of great photos. It has a nice thick bound cover and makes a great coffee table book. I hope the Shelby GT book is similar in quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChipBeck Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 I didn't know that book existed. Just ordered a copy. Thanks! Chip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertlane Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 The page count should be in the description for sure. I am on route to Birmingham, so I will check on that count when I return. We put 4-6 weeks in there because the store is new....it's first impression for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrayShadow Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 I put my order in also, still waitng on delivery. I had to have it to add to my collection of SGT stuff! Kevin 07SGT2591 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejrail Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 I also ordered one along with a few other things but tihe order is still being processed according to the tracking. You'd think there is something big happening this Friday in Birmingham or something. that is holding up the folks at the new "store". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COBRA SCOTTY Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 like everyone i also ordered about $ 200.00 i stuff, but i was told 4-6 weeks shipping for the team store.i know that there is the 45th show in alabama this coming weekend and i believe that the team store is going to bethere and might also account for slow than normal service. just my $.02 SCOTTY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrKSGT Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 I purchased it but have not received it yet. I purchased the Mustang Masterpieces and that is a very nice book with lots of great photos. It has a nice thick bound cover and makes a great coffee table book. I hope the Shelby GT book is similar in quality. Thank you for mentioning Mustang Masterpieces. I have wanted to post question on whether it would be a good buy. Intent is to get recommendations for books on Mustangs as I have only Mustang Buyer's Guide 1964 1/2 - 1978. Good pictures and fair description of that time frame. Sure hope book might be at the Shelby Museum when I get to Vegas in a few weeks. I am interested in getting more pictures of the 1967 relative to appearance mods to entertain. Clearly the SGT was molded from the 65 and 66. There could have been a little more of the 1967 used due to being a 40 year anniversary for that model. I like the flush mount louvers for back seat windows of the 65 and the hood of the 67. I just ordered the SVTOA book to see what it has for pictures. Obviously our cars can become an addiction.

mikesdream Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 Obviously our cars can become an addiction. DrKSGT I told my wife it was the SGT or a mistress. Her mistake, I would have been tired of the mistress by now : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her mistake, I would have been tired of the mistress by now : ) haha, Im trying to work up to my wife letting me get another bike, she doesnt like the idea of another. I should try that angle. I already have 2 in my garage, 1 work bike and my personal bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFBLUE Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 Once someone gets a copy, let me know if it covers the 2008s or just the GT-Hs and 07 SGTs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
08SGT1977 Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 Yes, it does cover the 2008 models. I had the same question before I placed my order. I have not received mine yet though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffIsHereToo Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 I ordered one... But they could have done A LOT better job on the cover! At least used the car's font and moved "Shelby Automobiles, Inc." to the lower right and out of the shadows maybe a catchy tag line of some sort. Well...it will be nice to have none the less! :happy feet: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reino Posted April 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 I ordered one... But they could have done A LOT better job on the cover! True, also, this car has been out for how long now and they are still using the prototype car for everything. Id think by now they would be using the real thing.
