Automatic or not, this sure does look like a SGT to me from the pics
Have to contact SA and have them run the VIN just to make sure...
However, when you print out the Original Window Sticker, it does show that this car did come with the 54U Upfit Package
Ford Window Sticker
I'm "guessing" that the Special Note should have said "Not a Shelby GT500..."

You are probably right about it should have said not Gt 500......If it's not a true shelby it looks like the clone was'nt missing much........It looked like it did have the shelby plaqe on the dash!!! I do appreciate your time.......Thanks

These auction places are so used to seeing GT500's that when they see a SGT with the smaller non-sc'd motor they think its a fake. It doesn't help when the SGT VIN number decodes as just a Mustang GT where a GT500 VIN number decodes as a Shelby.
Honest mistake that actually works in the buyers favor.

It is Shelby GT. It even has the Shelby GT plate under the hood. I think the other post here was correct, they meant it wasn't a GT 500.

I own a bodyshop and buy alot of builders, repair and resale them! The Shelby looks to be a pretty easy fix and I'm looking forward to it's arrival although i don't know when I'll be able to get it in for repairs as my shop is very busy!! It will have to set with my 3 69 mach 1s and my 73 convertible but it is going in as soon as possible, i want it cleaned up and looking good again and am thinking about a few upgrades, nothing real major, maybe a gt500 spoiler, back window scoops, and thinking about gold stripes! Have'nt really decided that I really want to change it from it's originality...

congrats, make sure you register it in the registry. If it has been registered already, just let me know and I will have the info changed manually. There is a link to both my email, and the registry in my signature. I am looking forward to seeing it complete.
