stpracer43 Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 Arrived at SAI today to receive my 40th back from Shelby! Looks, sounds, and drives great... no power mods, just the base package! John Luft presented me my "new" 40th! Only issue today was a completely dead battery... wouldnt take/hold a charge at all. Took the regular tour, signed my name on the wall , then met up with Robert who took me for an inside the shop tour while my battery was getting swapped out! Very cool! #235 isn't the last, but pretty close. Best I could tell from the non-specific answers to my direct question of "how many more?"....is there are 2 to go. Both red like mine. Not sure how to post pics from mobile, but will try soon! Now to get on the road eastbound, after I put on my new plates. ============== UPDATE ================== Knocked out 1950+ miles on the 3-day trip back, turned 25k miles on my '07 Shelby! Only other Shelby on the road the entire way was this guy... Proud to be a new member of Team 40TH! Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stpracer43 Posted July 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 The round trip from VA to SAI and back to VA is now complete... enjoyed driving my "new" 40th & spending a couple weeks on vacation with family. Now back to work first thing tomorrow! On the list of afternoon chores is a quick wash and cleanup for my car. Certainly a comprehensive detail is needed in the coming weeks after 5200 miles round trip! Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
