Jopo43 Posted August 8, 2014 Report Share Posted August 8, 2014 I am going to have a gt500 soon I hope I currently have a 68 Shelby tribute that I built from nothing to a great looking car. I drove a 2008 gt500 red convertible last week and wow I gotta have the beast. Just saw it at a dealer nearby and thought what the heck would like to drive that once Will be getting a blue convertible that's pure stock I hope and a 2008 would also look for stripe delete Never thought I would want to sell the 68 after I touched every bolt on it pretty much but the 2008 gt500 is the machine I must get Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenneth Camp 59459 Posted August 8, 2014 Report Share Posted August 8, 2014 Welcome to TS. If you really want a beast, try a 13/14 model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerseygator Posted August 9, 2014 Report Share Posted August 9, 2014 Welcome! :happy feet: I agree on the 2010+ rear-end. Imagine that... I fondly refer to them as "ugly-butt" Good luck in the purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mavisky Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Congrats from a former Hoosier. If you ever need any work done to it or local dyno tuning check out Fathouse Fabrications. My buddy Ben and Jeremy run the shop and they work on some amazing builds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jopo43 Posted October 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Thanks I hope to move from indiana to Florida in 8 years I hate snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mavisky Posted October 7, 2014 Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 I thought I escaped it by moving to Atlanta, last winter proved me wrong. The only good news is that if it snows here you just stay home til it melts with the fireplace making you all toasty since the city shuts down.

Alcan KobRa Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 Welcome to the madness! You made a great choice there. My first GT500 was an 07 identical to yours...you're going to love it! I must have watched "I AM Legend" a hundred times while waiting for mine to arrive. Enjoy and be safe. AK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jopo43 Posted October 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 She is home After a 1687 mile journey from Salt Lake City Utah my Shelby is home!!!!! Have had a few fast cars but nothing like this can safely say even after driving her for 3 days and all those miles I still want to go drive her. We flew in and stopped at Arches national park and the Colorado Monument park both were great. Kansas Boring!!!! Heres a picture at Arches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
