StokedShelbyOwner Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 I'm registered and planning on having at least as much fun as last year B) Just to be sure the old Shelby runs a bit better than this year, I am going to do another track day at Fontana speedway next month with Speedventures The clutch issue is way behind me now, the new Twin Plate Tilton Rally clutch is holding all the power *and* it's streetable :whew: Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scrampage1 Posted November 11, 2009 Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 Was just in Las Vegas last week. Took a break from SEMA & AAPEX, and went to Shelby Automobiles. Looked around and even chatted with Gary Patterson. The Dodge vehicles on display in the lobby are the 1983 1/2 Dodge Shelby Charger, 1987 Shelby Lancer, and the 1989 Shelby Dakota. That Dakota has over 60,000 miles. Well, I guess I can go back to Sin City in 2 months. I may be done with my 1984 Dodge Rampage by then. I'll consider it as a reward for the work I'm doing to my Rampage. I'm currently having some lower ball joints, lower control arms bushings, and sway bar bushings installed. Bushings courtesy of PolyBushings. Rebuilt power rack and pinion and (2) new CV axles are also being installed. Also got to drain the gas tank. It just goes on and on with this car. Wish I could upgrade it to Shelby Charger front brakes, but, I need to get it done and down on the ground. Damn code enforcement is snooping around my vehicles.

shelbymotorsports Posted November 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 That Dakota has over 60,000 miles. If you look closer you'll see Nevada plates on the thing. It's not currently registered but previously was and saw use by someone at SAI. Kind of a company car type of thing. If you think 60k is high you outta see the Lonestar prototype Dakota Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, you won't have that option as yours still refuses to ride in any of your heaps, correct? When you're right, you're right :o But then I ask myself, is it really such a bad thing that is it so easy and acceptable to ditch the ball and chain just by taking a drive somewhere in on of the heaps :P Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86glhs76 Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 we'll see how deep the snow is this time, I had 3 ft here last year and 2 ft the year before lol.

johnl Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 Steve, what Steve said. And, by the results of the dyno tuning this last weekend, there will be at least three decent running 86 cars there and mine, by comparison, will be the least powerful! Let's hope Alan gets his S going in time too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelbymotorsports Posted December 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2009 Let's hope Alan gets his S going in time too. Yes let's hope so. I'd hate to have security alerted that under no circumstances are any banana colored TC's to be allowed in the gate. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve I heard he was ordering up a special sticker set for the ultra limited production "Iacocca/Shelby Edition Maser-Shelbiati TC". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owenkelley Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 Glad to see there's gonna be a good showing of Mopars again this year. I love to look them all over. I haven't driven my GLHS in several years, it needs several things before I put it back on the road, but at least it's painted and looks nice! One of these days!

When you find the Shelby Dodge contingent at the track/hotel, stop by and say hello. Time to get your "S" back on the road A '67 GT500? One of my favorites. I had a '67 GT350 years ago with the inboard lights-traded it for a Trans Am 455SD(I know, I know..) How about a pic ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tried to upload pics here before, but I keep getting a message that says the file is too big. I upload them at other sites, but here I always seem to have a problem. I managed to get some to post in my gallery under my profile, but I can't seem to add them to posts on the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK Trying uploading your pics again here on Team Shelby. I'm not positive but I think the new 3.0 version of TS is easier for uploading pics. Steve PS- I just uploaded an unedited huge photo and it seemed yo upload just fine. If your photos are large in size you may only be able to upload one at a time.
