woolz Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 Proud new owner of 07gth346. I purchased the vehicle today!! It is the actual car that my wife rented as a surprise for me the weekend of our wedding back in september. Actually have wedding photos taken in the car that I now own!! I'll post some pics as soon as I take another brake from driving it. Perfect weather this time of year in central FL to own a convertible. Look forward to meeting new people and sharing info. Thanks in advance!!! zach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HARALD KELLEY Posted May 2, 2009 Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 Very cool to have a reason behind the CSM number. Mine looking for a stang for my 50th birthday. Found CSM # 50, ment to be when I found it. Wedding surprize rental that you now own, even cooler. By the way, My wife and I will going to Florida the week following Memorial weekend. About 2 1/2 miles from Disney World. Any tips or suggestions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About 2 1/2 miles from Disney World. Any tips or suggestions i generally avoid that side of town. i assume you're coming in town for the parks and that you already have hotel accomodations? depends on what you're looking to do. by far the coolest thing that i've done since living here is going to discovery cove at sea world and swimming with the dolphins. that was awesome. you can either make a 1/2 or a full day of that alone, although you're only spending 30min or so with the dolphins. if you want some more local ideas that most tourists don't know about let me know. by the way. love your wheels!!

woolz Posted May 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2009 Very cool story. How were you able to secure the exact same car? thanks. i actually found a dealer here in orlando that was selling a lot of hertz mustangs. especially the verts. i went to look at some other cars and they were priced too high. as i was leaving i asked if there was any way that he could locate the car the i used in the wedding. he did, and it was actually still in the fleet. however, at the time i couldn't afford it. that was in november i think. then back in early april, i contacted the dealer about another vehicle that he had and made him an offer. he declined my offer on that vehicle, however he remembered me and located the car from my wedding again. it was still in service!! from there, he locked it down, bought it. then all i had to do was convince my wife that she loved the car as much as me.

Matts Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 Wait I recognise that building. There was an auction for two Shelby Hertz one coupe and one convertible. Did you buy those or am I thinking of another auction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you buy those or am I thinking of another auction? the dealer that i bought the car from has sold 65+ of the hertz mustangs. mine, however was never posted on ebay. another team shelby member actually bought the matching coupe and vert, if that's what you're referring to.
