cobrafan Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 Yes - 07 SS and 08 KR have 40th badges. I agree - I thought this was more about the bastard stepchild aspect. I'm not very PC. My take is for the children in the Attic only Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MY500SS Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 For me this is a double edge knife...............both mine are 40th cars but the XL0273 is first (and forgotten) 40th that this team was being based on. Just my .02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torch40 Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 This was my gut feeling as well, I was just trying to be open to the other 40th's. The Team 40th refers to the 40th Anniversary upgrade package from Shelby. Correct? Not trying to to be snooty, it's just for fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slabo Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 Ok my fellow neglected forgotten stepchildren of the attic lets just stick with the original idea of creating a club for us first post title package cars (07XL). I agree, it started because we seem to have fallen off the radar and its really all about banning together. As torch points out, it's about having fun with it. I will get the starter thread going today. Go Team 40th! BTW check my signature! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Hello Mike, I drove my 40th, but not that much. I have a 3600 miles on her. Have changed the oil 12 times and only take her out on a staight-away called Ocean pky 17 miles of straight 2 lane road that is never used much and follows the ocean at jones beach LI NY. So really do not drive her much at all. Still like new! Fill me in on this Oklahoma trip,I am not going to the Vegas Bash Jan.7-10. Well not going as of now, could just wind up there on a whim. Merry Xmas! Todd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merry Xmas! Todd I think I have around 5,000 miles on mine - but a lot of it is track time! O'Brien spent a lot of those miles looking at my tail lights! The Shelby Mid-America meet is every summer in Tulsa. You can spend 3 or 4 days on the road track at Hallet Raceway and a day on the dragstrip. It is a blast (other than the heat). There is a big cruise one night - usually around 600 - 700 cars. We always have a good time! Try to make it out to the Bash if you can - we are getting our new Terlingua while we are there...can't wait! Have a great Christmas...and drive that 40th some more!
