GT500-07 Posted July 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 say what "It's Shelby Serialized 08-001 It's the first Shelby GT of 2008. Car has all the badging to prove it." first I've heard of this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springer Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 Maybe Roger Sorel could shed some light on this. Personally, it is rather imaginative if not genuine. It looks like it has a serialized dash plaque. Where are you Roger??????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tispco Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 I wouldn't even bother to call it a clone. It's just a base Mustang GT with a lot of mods and some Shelby parts anyone can buy. Heck, the fake dash plaque looks like it is square...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoFL05GT Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 Get me the VIN and I can easily check. But I don't think so. Roger Roger, It's unlikely we can obtain a VIN, as the owner may not want it published online. Supposedly, it's "Shelby Serialized 08-001", does such serialization scheme exist? -Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFBLUE Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 If it were a real SGT wouldn't it have the following: 1. "Powered by Ford" badges 2. "SHELBY GT" Rocker stripes 3. And most importantly, a GT/CS / SGT front and rear facia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFBLUE Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 WOW, I didn't know they were making Shelbys in AZ. http://www.arizonashelbycobras.com/ They also do mustang "Carroll Shelby Upgrade kits" http://www.arizonashelbycobras.com/Content/Mustangs.aspx Carroll Shelby CS Upgrade Kits TURN 1 Upgrade Kit includes: CS Hood CS Hood Grille CS Upper Grille Insert PIAA Driving Lights for Upper Grille CS6 Front Fascia & Lower Grille Stainless Steel Hood Pins with Brackets Radiator Cover CS Side Scoops SHELBY Letter Kit Shelby GT-Plus Performance Brake Kit Complete Suspension Package: High performance springs, struts, sway bars, and dampers JBA Dual Exhaust CS Rear Fascia (V6 Kits only) Rear Spoiler (V6 Kits only) Shelby Razor Wheels (20x9 Gunmetal Grey) Sill Plate Inserts Stripe Graphics (silver) Trunk Lock Emblem Dash Plaque TURN 2 Upgrade Kit includes: Everything in the Turn 1 Kit PLUS Shelby Paxton Supercharger w/intercooler 8.8 Inch Rear End w/3.55 Get Set-V6 ** Kit comes with satin finish supercharger. Add $200.00 for Polished finish. Looks like the error was calling this mustang with a "CS upgrade kit" a "Shelby GT" An easy mistake to make if you are unfamiliar with the Shelby GT's background.

stngfever Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 Love the Arizona Shelby Cobra engine plate! Looks like he'll be at MustangWeek http://www.mustangweek.com/forums/showthread.php?p=26138&posted=1#post26138 And on the Arizona Shelby site FAQ, found this: Question: Does the upgraded Mustang go in the Shelby Registry? Answer: No. But a complete CS package will get a numbered Plate from Shelby which may someday go in the Registry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son of GT Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 EPIC FAIL. But it's probably not the seller's fault that they believe they have a legit 2008 Shelby GT because I have a feeling that Arizona Shelby failed to tell the owner that it was THEIR verison of a 2008 SGT. IMO I would say that this car a "professionally built clone". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWEDEMAN Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 I for one do not consider a cloned Shelby GT to be a compliment. If they want a Shelby GT, a Shelby SS or a GT350......they should just go buy one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kryptonite Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Interesting........ I was gonna ask was it one of those Shelby SR's or SC's before they shut down that project for regular mustang owners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
08SC0023 Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Interesting........ I was gonna ask was it one of those Shelby SR's or SC's before they shut down that project for regular mustang owners. I've seen reference to these projects being shut down a few times. Have they really? I haven't seen or heard anything from SAI about it yet. This is of interest to me because my own MGT vert has been there since April getting the SC package installed. Agonizingly slow process, but New York Mike is doing a beautiful job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kryptonite Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 The only reason as to why I thought they stopped doing the Shelby SC or SR is that they no longer show up in their list of upgraded vehicles. Maybe someone in the know could clear that up??? http://www.shelbyautos.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
