Alexander Fearn Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 (edited) I have a question from a UK owner who wants to know if his car is a SuperSnake. it has this plaque on the dash - there are no others under the hood. Can anyone help please ? Edited October 14, 2017 by JerseySandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
real_supersnake Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 Unfortunately it doesn't look authentic. The "55" is a big give away, it should be "SS". The forger probably needs to do better homework. I wonder what the owner of CSM: 10SS0077 would think about this. A call into SAI will confirm for you.

SAI-Steven Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 I have a question from a UK owner who wants to know if his car is a SuperSnake. it has this plaque on the dash - there are no others under the hood. Can anyone help please ? That plaque is a fake. VIN # 1ZVBP8CH9A5152767 belongs to a 2010 Mustang GT. FYI, Shelby American had no mod shop programs/builds for a 2010 Mustang with the 4.6 engine. The only 2010 Shelby build was the GT500 Super Snake with the 5.4 engine. Lets hope that any future buyers of this car Google the cars VIN number before writing a check so that they hopefully will see this thread.

Fat Boss Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 The 55 would be comical if it weren't so cringe worthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexander Fearn Posted October 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2017 (edited) Thank you all. I had my suspicions, the car ended up in the UK. I did decode the VIN which confirmed it was originally a 2010 GT 4.6. We have already indicated it is a fake and asked him to check the VIN with SA. The additional info you guys found on the car is very helpful and I will pass it on to the UK owner. With Kind Regards Alex Edited October 15, 2017 by JerseySandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
