SAI-Steven Posted August 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 Thanks, Steve. I'm confused. My 40th was completed in February 2008. There was a black convertible 40th at SEMA October 2007 and many articles covering the announcement. My understanding was that 1st 40th was Steve Davis car - what number is his if not 01P? How is it that 01P was completed 2 years later? Did some digging and what I found relates to exactly what I was trying to convey in an earlier post, sequence dates can be tough to determine. In regards to 001P the first wrench used by SAI on this 40th was in 2007 but the last wrench used by SAI on this car wasn't until 2009. This car was also not invoiced until 2009. So which came first, the chicken or the egg? If it wasn't until 2009 that the car was finished, signed off, invoice paid and delivered to the owner wouldn't 2009 be the completion date? Yes I understand that an argument could be made for 2007 but things are not always black & white. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could use some updating - I've had 285s on the front and 315s on the rear since probably 2010... Good to see some are still keeping up with this forum. I've kinda lost touch myself.

Sherri Leicht Posted August 23, 2017 Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 I remember that car in the museum for the 85th birthday bash and asking who Steve was. That car is what made up my mind to 40th mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DougD Posted November 7, 2018 Report Share Posted November 7, 2018 Great work Steve, nice to have this list updated and improved. One question, is the brake section referring to those of us who ordered the 6 piston extreme braking package? Thanks Doug 07XL0218 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAI-Steven Posted February 4, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2019 40th Anniversary build chart has been updated with the addition of Carroll's #13 car. I've also added stripe colors to the chart as two of the 40th's did not have regular production silver striping. And before anyone asks, these two non-silver stripes cars were cars for Carroll. There was no stripe color choices available, your name had to be on the front of the building to receive a change in stripe color. The Registry was also available to track down more detailed mod-shop build info that changed some of the option numbers like the white cue ball shifter numbers.

Hey Steven - Have an interesting situation on FB. A guy is posting a Red 40th Anniversary vert that appears questionable. It seems to be a nice tribute car, but there's now a claim to it as being CSM07XL0120. Robert Lane posted details on that which indicates 120 is a black vert vin 369438. A quick google and that shows it being sold at BJ Palm Beach 2017 here... https://www.barrett-jackson.com/Events/Event/Details/2007-FORD-SHELBY-GT500-CONVERTIBLE-205914 which is indeed a black vert. Robert mentioned he's seen examples of two 2007 GT500 40ths being issued the same CSX num. Can that be true? Here's the FB post... https://www.facebook.com/groups/ShelbyAmerican/permalink/3251982358199967/ Edited July 21, 2020 by GT500FLYBOY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
