Andy Torch40 and I will be picking up #40 and #50 Weds April 6th!

It is appropriate that we do this together as I told him about the car after I saw it at the 2010 bash, both our cars came in on the same truck from Ford, we had them smogged together in Needles in Nov and we have talked incessantly about GT350s over the past year or so.

Needless to say, you will see pics next week!

Great news!!!

Congrats and have fun bringing it home.

My Stangs (past & present)

1977 Mustang Ghia - White. My first Mustang. The 302 was anemic, but it was the only Mustang I could afford at the time. I still have a soft spot for Mustang II's. Owned from October 1981 to September 1984.

1985 GT Convertible - Black/White Top, 5 speed. I bought this brand new and it's still in my stable. All stock except for Flowmasters, brand new 3 core radiator, and new Black Convertible Top. Owned from August 1985 to present

2006 GT - Redfire Metallic. Premium, 18 inch rims, Shaker 500, 5 speed. 300 HP of fun, but had to sacrifice for the Shelby. Owned from September 2006 to August 2010.

2011 Shelby GT500 - Black with tape stripe delete, Electronics package, SVT Performance Package. Owned from August 2010 to present.

I am very happy for you guys. I know that me and lots of other members cannot wait to see your cars on the 9th.  I remember seeing that 11' 350 for sale in Buena Park, and I was excited just to see and touch it. But now you guys uped the ante,I can actually hear what they sound like. If you don't mind,some time durring the evening, I would love to get a picture of my tribute next to yours. Congrads to you both.

Thanks Michael,

Most of its cruising time gets spent along the beach so it seemed appropriate. In fact, I'm getting ready to take it out in about a half hour now that the morning fog has lifted.

All it needs is a blonde in a bikini and we have a Shelby postcard just like the 60's.

Pretty cool pic still the same.
